Tonight around 5:45 I answer the phone.

It’s a woman who responds to my greeting with: hi. We are the smiths. We have a reservation for 5 at 6:30 for 5 but we are really going to be 6.

I thank her for calling but say, I’m sorry but can’t accommodate a party of 6 at 6:30.

She can’t comprehend this.

I explain that we moved over 100 people inside because the patio was closed.

She insists we have to accommodate them. M
I explain that we don’t have a table for 6 at 6:30.

She insists I have too because they live on Marshall Point Road and come all the time.

I apologize but tell her it’s not possible.

3 seconds later and I talking to her husband.

We live on Marshall Pount Road, come all the time and you MUST accommodate us.

I apologize again. Explain that the patio is closed. There’s nothing I can do.

He is having none if that.

He says he’ll call back later to see if there’s a cancellation.

I assure him there won’t be.

He hangs up on me.

6:30 comes and goes and they don’t show.

Motherfucker!

I ended up trying to charge them but there credit card is out of date.

Motherfucker!
