Tonight I got a call around 5:30.

I remember the time because our only push today was at 5:30.

Almost as soon as I answered the phone two guests walked in.

The person on the phone wanted to know if we had 3 seats at the bar, and if our bar had TVs, and were we showing the game.

I said yes on all accounts.

Followed by what would time would you like to come in.

I hear her call to her friends, and then begin a conversation about what time they’d be here. They are laughing, joking, and not giving me an answer.

By this time there are three couples standing in front of me waiting to be seated.

I continue to listen to this woman huck it up with her friends.

After about 45 seconds I tried to get her attention but she was not listening to me.

So I hung up.

Sat the guests who were waiting.

And waited for her to call back.

And she did.

And I made her reservation.

Which when she did arrive she was 20 minutes late for reservation.
