More Long Islands!! | Server Nightmares - Bad Tipping and Rude Customer Stories

More Long Islands!!

On July 17, 2010, in Bad Tip, Rude Customer, by admin

This happened a few weeks ago when I was the closer.

Two people with a baby came in 10 minutes before close, the baby was around 1 year old and the two were pretty far apart in age themselves. Not sure if they were a couple or not.

They proceeded to order a full course meal with apps and steaks, and she was dominating long island iced teas.

Her total count was around 3, and then she started complaining that she wanted her next one to be stronger, to which I obliged.

At this point it’s past last call, the baby is crying, they are the only ones in the restaurant, and she asks for yet another long island, this time she wants it stronger than her previous 4.

After a heated conversation about not being able to give her one since the bar was closed, the late comers finally decide to call it a night, and you guessed it, got a crappy tip on top of my troubles, not even 10 percent.

    Well, gosh, all she wanted you to do was violate the rules of your restaurant’s liquor license, putting the restaurant’s licensure at risk, and risking severe consequences for yourself. Think of the customer!

    How does one make a Long Island stronger? Really wondering.
