conversation worth blogging about...

another one of those conversations that reflect our distaste in the dining out crew that refuse to pay for anything other than their meal. come on people these people charge tax and you want to tip your waitress.

LocalGirl says:
hey
LocalGirl says:
u there??????/
Santiago says:
yeah, i am with a client
LocalGirl says:
do u have an extre diet pop?
Santiago says:
no , i just ran out
Local Girlsays:
dammit
Santiago says:
just finished my last one
Local Girl says:
damn u
Santiago says:
i need to go to jewels and purchase a case. those damn vending machines are cleaning us out.
Local Girl says:
u know. i hate to complain. but why is it that people act like they don't understand how much they have to put towards a bill
santiago says:
rt u hate to complain. did u sense the sarcarsm in my last statement
Local Girl says:
i mean, yes that is y i ignored and continued... anyhoo
Santiago says:
yeah they are annoying
Local Girl says:
if you order something, u see the price
Santiago says:
they want u to draw them a map
Local Girl says:
u know u have to pay tax and tip. i mean, i just don't get it
Santiago says:
oh trust me i know what you mean
Local Girl says:
its like, they only want to pay a certain amount, and so everyone else has to come up with the difference and that is just plain wrong. i hate that
Santiago says:
this is why i hate going out in groups
Local Girl says:
me too. i say seperate f-ing checks. Innosense is always good
Santiago says:
the worst part is i am the one who gets fd
Local Girl says:
she puts in what she should. i get f'd too
Santiago says:
yeah Innosense is good. she rocks
Local Girl says:
i hate being taken for a fool. i hate talkin shit. i really do
Santiago says:
i know then they stare at you blankly
Local Girl says:
but, i think Clueless B should be on a seperate check from now on
Santiago says:
hahahahaha
Local Girl says:
she is an expert at that blank look
Santiago says:
yeah, she has honed it over the years
Local Girl says:
i hate to say it but it is tru. i mean, like today her sandwich was 6.95...pretty much $7, rt.
Santiago says:
she gets what she wants
Local Girl says:
well, then tax and tip, she thought she only owed 7
Santiago says:
i would add 2 dlrs
Local Girl says:
i am thinking to myself
Santiago says:
or 1.50
Local Girl says:
what, we got to pay your tax and tip? it is ridiculous i tell u
Santiago says:
it is true but u have to love her
Local Girl says:
i just hate having to tell people how much they owe and why cuz they make it seem like i am being a jerk when i am just trying to make sure everyone doesn't get screwed u know? like when we went out to union park Dark Spock was $7, plus tax and tip technically, Santiago, i owe u a buck. but anyhoo, Clueless B was telling Dark Spock he shouldn't have to pay 9. i was like, no especially since it is going on my card. anyhoo
Santiago says:
f it
Local Girl says:
i will get off my soap box
Santiago says:
it does not matter
Local Girl says:
i just needed to get it off my chest
Local Girl says:
i know, but i am tight on money
Santiago says:
god has given me enough. i could have more, but why get greedy.
Local Girl says:
and i hate cheap skates. i wish i could cover the diff for everyone but i can't i know u are rt
Local Girl says:
i just hate that stare
Santiago says:
i know. that is why i would pay for your lunch on occasion i can deal with going out with one other person
Local Girl says:
it can get on my nerves, especially when i am tight on cash
Santiago says:
we can either pay our own check or i can foot the bill sometimes
Local Girl says:
ya, i like that way too. its the best way to do it i guess
Santiago says:
once it is three mother forget about it
Local Girl says:
i hate to say it, but am going to start getting my own chk
Santiago says:
one other f-er is trying the blank look
Local Girl says:
like when we went to union park, that is y i thought it would be good for us to spplit a chk. i should have stuck with my original plan. me and u are good about those things
Santiago says:
rt i would have paid you that would have been fine with me.
Local Girl says:
Santiago says:
that is our pact
Santiago says:
i know, that if me and u go out, we don't got to worry about money. if we go together we will cover our asses
Local Girl says:
the same with Innosense i guess not everyone is that money savy
Santiago says:
i always have been
Local Girl says:
i just think, if you don't want to spend it,
Local Girl says:
then don't go out,
Santiago says:
u cant spend what u aint got
Local Girl says:
cuz i don't want to pay it for u. u know?
Santiago says:
i feel ya
Local Girl says:
but i think that is how some people are they assume that people like u and i will cover the diff just because we want to hang out with them. we will pay the extra.

well...looks likes this is the only time we have for dinner theater. tune in next time for the exciting episode on how to clear you mind of all sort of life problems. static...static...static...static...static...static...static...static...static..static

The next time you go out on a group outing establish the ground rules up front or show up early and ask the waitress to bill you separately. Folks need to learn to do the math.

to force them to cough it all up, give them the check with your money (tax and tip included) let them handle it. i used to be a waitress, so i'm too embarrassed to ever ask for seperate checks 'cause i used to hate when clients asked for it.
