While enjoying my dinner last two days at one restaurant here in Kota Bharu, I suddenly recalled one unforgettable incident involving dinner. When I was studying in Shah Alam, my housemates and I once went to $*********$ for our dinner. It was about 8.30pm and there were only two customers eating when we reached there. By the time we stepped into the franchisee, none of the workers greeted us as they are supposed to, like any other franchisee. However, that was not a big deal. We cared much about our empty belly than that matter. We chose our table at the right corner. Soon, the waiter approached us and hand in the menu card and he disappeared without saying a word. While we were arguing about what to eat, one of the waitresses came and stood straight on my right side with paper and pen in her hand. The waitress did not say any word and just stood there like a statue of liberty, not to mention her sour face. Then, I told her that I wanted to eat a single roasted chicken set with soya bean. Still with her sour face, she asked me to repeat by saying, “hah?” instead of any other polite words she could and should use as a waitress. After repeated myself, my three housemates said that they wanted to try the single noodle set. However, they had to choose which noodles and how did they want the noodles being cooked. Therefore, the three of them took quite some time to decide while figuring out the bombastic names of the food served. ”Miss waitress, aren’t you suppose to explain all these bombastic meals to your customer?” I said to myself. My housemates were so blur and miss waitress was so cold and annoying. I could tell from her face that she was irritated because my housemates have not decided yet on what they wanted, even though 5 minutes had passed. “But then, whose fault is that. They would not take that much time to decide if you have explained each of them, miss waitress.” Then, one of my housemates asked the waitress, “What is shredded chicken noodle?” and the waitress’ reaction was “hah?” with an annoying sour face. After my housemates repeated the question, she then answered coldly. “My God, you should not work here if you are too lazy to open up your mouth and entertain the customers!” I said (to myself-again!)
After everyone has made their order, the waitress took the menu card and went away. We were really mad over her rudeness and impoliteness. She treated us like we were a bunch of retarded who have no money to pay for our dinner. I thought the irritating part had over. However, when the waitress came to serve for our drink, she accidentally spilled all the drinks onto our table. WHAT?! Miss, what is your problem actually?! You nearly drowned my hand phone and purse in those strawberries, soya bean and Pepsi! Luckily, two of my housemates were not sitting at the left corner or else they would enjoy the free bathing session with strawberries and soya bean! Phew! At that time, I felt like saying – “Miss, you are FIRED!”
