Stupid Questions

topic posted Wed, November 23, 2005 - 10:11 PM by  Samantha
Have we done this topic before? Well, if not, I"ll start:

Q:"Are we keeping you?" (When they're the last table in the restaurant).
A: If you have to ask, then you are. We are not allowed to tell you the truth!

Q: (On a slow night) "Why is the place so empty tonight?"
A: How the hell am I supposed to know?!!!

Q: "How spicy is this dish?"
A: If you have to ask, it's too spicy for you.

      How about : Do you have a bar ? / Can I get a cocktail ?
      While sitting in the main dining room.

      .....What the hell do you think all those bottles of booze in front of your nose are for !!!

    Stupidest question I ever got when I answered the phone at a restaurant where I used to work:


    "Do you accept cash as a form of payment?"

      Oh, I forgot about this one. (Already giggling) The chef answered the phone once & this woman asked, "Are you a homosexual establishment?" He told her, "We accept both!" I guess because we're in a gay-friendly neighborhood & have artsy-farsty decor, she was convinced there was going to be some sort of hedonistsic gay frenzy in there every night, or something!! LOL!

    I love it when Vegans come in asking for something special.....

    sure, and you want me to cook that shit (if I even HAD it) on the grill that's never had meat on it, and with pans that haven't either, right?

    I have nothing against making something special at all, it's actually fun to create a pleasing meal that way, but hello.........there are limits to the "needs" at times....mmmmmk?!!!

      I agree, and I'm a vegetarian! I don't go into a steak house & expect to find stuff I can eat! If there's one dish on the menu I can eat, I'm happy. And these vegans who think I'm trying to put one over on them... slip em some butter or something! I always tell them I'm a vegetarian... I'm not evil like that!

          It takes an hour for caffeine to effect the body, if they've stayed that long, there better be a huge fucking tip on the table!

          As if by taste along they can tell????
          What?? Our coffee tastes to fucking great to be decaf??
          What?? You don't realize there is caffeine in decaf??


          GAH!
          LOL!

            I love that! "I cannot have ANY caffeine" shit... And then "A decaf coffee for me, please." LOL! Idiots! All of it, coffee, tea, whatever, has SOME FUCKING CAFFEINE! If your'e that addicted... Just drink a fucking martini and get over it.

              And how about the "I'll have the triple chocolate molten cake with ice cream... and a Sweet & Low for my coffee." Or "I'm terribly allergic to dairy, so You'll have to leave the beurre blanc off my entree...ooh, but I'll have a piece of that bread pudding for dessert!"

                Ya, it's right up there with the one's who order huge burgers, and diet drinks......does that justify it?
                I need that kind of scale or something.

                Maybe if I cut a hole in the steak, the calories will fall out?

                Ya, no caffiene, but I'll eat an assssload of chocolate desserts.......hmmm.....

                  My favorite stupid questions are usually from coworkers. "dude, the haricots verts (hard t's) are in the sauce right?" That's the shit I love. y'all should know better. And be ashamed.

                    okay hands down my favorite stupid question is when you are about to seat some dumb asses and you give them a choice of inside or outside. And they look at each other and ask, "OH! Well, how is it outside? Is it cold?" Well GOOD LORD you are the ones that just came in from the frickin outside!!!!
