Have you ever been refused a table in a buzzing restaurant !!
Ever witnessed the audacity of the wait staff having to say " No" to accommodate you and you replying," Do you know who I am"! If so, this one's for you ! I always wish the poor wait staff should be permitted to get extra tables from their homes, when the place gets full !
Whether you've lived in Delhi or down south, it is bound to happen that a distant relative of yours is either a politician or is a business magnet named " Reddy" whose name may help you to sneak in to this awesomely busy place..... and in return what do you get - Lousy food and crappy service.
And just when you get seated, you suddenly have the urge of having something which is not on the menu and you ask your wait staff to get it.... What do you hear again "No" ! That's when the funny bone tickles your brain and the golden words are spoken " Call the GM"..... do you really think GM is someone who will personally take your order ! some still do, LOL....
Try complaining after that about how everyone at the restaurant has ruined your evening and how the mosquito bite on your girlfriend's left thumb has made you loose your appetite.
And that's when you get to meet a black tie gentleman profusely apologising and offering a discount ! Is that what we want from an evening ??
So next time you want go out and have a great time, call & reserve !!! I promise your fiancé won't think less of you, your bicep's wont bulge less, let uncle reddy take some rest and best of all you'll get treated like you deserve to be....
And that is just a tip of the ice berg in a Hotelier's Day.......... there's never a dull moment :-)
pun intended....
