So i was on yahoo about to check my emails and i saw this article, it was called "20 secrets your waiter will not tell you", so i checked it out, from there i saw this other article that was called "13 things your bartender won't tell you", some of them were pretty funny others were pretty fucked up, here are a few of them:
On Christmas Day, when people ask why Im there, I might say, My sisters been in the hospital, or, My brothers off to war, so were celebrating when he gets back. Then I rake in the tips.
If someone orders a frozen drink thats annoying to make, Ill say, Oh, were out. Sorry! when really I just dont want to make it. But if you order water instead of another drink, suddenly we do have what you originally wanted because I dont want to lose your drink on the bill.
If you make a big fuss about sending your soup back because its not hot enough, we like to take your spoon and run it under really hot water, so when you put the hot spoon in your mouth, youre going to get the impression often the very painful impression that your soup is indeed hot.
We want you to enjoy yourself while youre there eating, but when its over, you should go. Do you stay in the movie theater after the credits? No.
If youre having a disagreement over dinner and all of a sudden other servers come by to refill your water or clear your plates, or you notice a server slowly refilling the salt and pepper shakers at the table next to yours, assume that were listening.
Now the bartenders one.
Yell, whistle, or wave money and I'm going to make you wait. Make eye contact and smile, and I'll come over as soon as I can. Know what you want and have your money ready. Don't create a traffic jam.
Bars that don't have regulars (in hotels, airports) have started using wireless gadgets that measure how much is poured and automatically ring up each shot. They're meant to prevent overpouring and to cut losses, but I don't like themneither do customers.
At some bars, the sliced fruit garnishes sit out until theyre gone, sometimes for days. Munch accordingly.
I have the police on speed dial, and I never hesitate to call.
Some of us get a cut from the cab company when we call a taxi for a tipsy patron. Not that I've ever done that, of course.
Some of this "revealed secrets" makes you think,huh?, for instance, Ladies if i were you i would think twice before getting a drink that has some kind of fruit, and if you go to a restaurant and complain about your soup being cold, why the fuck you went to a restaurant for a freaking soup in the first place man?!?!?!

Hee. Thank you. They make me 6'2!
Hee, new years rarely means a complete change for me. Although I do tend to meet future exes on New Years? It's a rather odd trend. What are you going to do?
I've been a gator since birth.
