Something a little different.


Now, I know I spend an awful lot of time criticizing customer behavior in here, so let's turn the tables a little.

At work, we make strawberry daiquiris by mixing rum, ice, and daiquiri mix in the blender.  Last night a waitress needed a raspberry daiquiri, so I added a little black raspberry schnapps.  Later on, they asked for another one. The other bartender went to make it and asked what I did, so I told her that I added the black raspberry.

A little while later, I walked through the dining room and the waitress rushed a weird gray looking ice chippy drink over to me and she was like, "she said this is the worst thing she's ever had, can you make a new one?" Weird, because I told the other bartender exactly what I'd done.

She noticed me toss the drink she made and start over and she kept an eye out, trying to see what she did wrong. Suddenly I heard, "Ohh, you added daiquiri mix?!" What? She had made some sort of booze smoothie; rum, black raspberry schnapps, and ice. What part of that sounds delicious? What part of that has the word daiquiri in it? Nice.
