The Waitress Who Had a Long Night

Working in the hospitality industry can be hard sometimes. A few nights ago some of my friends discovered just how stressful it can be. Sam, Andrew, T and his cousin (who I call the silent one) went out to eat at Marina Gardens. They get into the restaurant and are helped into their seat by a woman in her late 40's, the kind who looked a little world-weary. This woman was a little sarcastic, but everyone knew it was in good jest, right up until dessert time.

Sam and Andrew ordered malts with their meals, and the waitress got sassy about it. Apparently making malts is a chore at Marina Gardens. After he had already ordered his meal, T also ordered a malt, and this started to upset the waitress, and by upset the waitress I mean she called T an SOB. She asked T's cousin if he wanted a malt as well. T's cousin said no, to which the waitress said "Good, because otherwise I would come across this table so fast." After everyone had finished their meals, the waitress noticed that Sam had not finished his malt, and this really upset her. It was at this point that she threatened to kick his ass.

"(Andrew) finished, (T) is going to finish because he doesn't want to get beat, so if you don't want to get beat you better finish your malt, because those malts are hard work!" - The waitress to Sam, because #samproblems.

After the meal this angered waitress gave everyone their tickets and pretty much told them to get out. The group went to go and pay. After they finished paying, the group all walked out of the restaurant. As they left, the waitress was outside smoking. The waitress opened the door for the group, thanked the group for eating, put out her smoke, and went back inside. Suddenly the group noticed what smelled like a skunk, and they were all really confused. Then like a freight train hitting the lone truck stuck on the train tracks, they all knew what they smelled: the waitress had been smoking a blunt.
