I beleive that Groupon suppose to give you a break on your dinner not
a free dinner with a frigin cruise. You know your in trouble from the
beginning because you get a phone call that assk if they can use a
expired groupon. I answer that we do honor them for the value of what
they paid for it which is $20 if it was a 20 for 40 voucher. I ask if
they would like to make a reservation and they asked if we used open
tables which we do but since i have you on the phone just make it now.
No I will use open tables so i get my points which is a lousy 20
dollarss after 20 reservations ohh big points.So now we wait to see
this big spender who wants every possible deal they can get. Finally
the moment came where i get to meet this vulture and as expected the
story gets better.
I get a waiter that says table 3 wants to talk to a
manager. I go over and she says that she was told she could use her
expired groupon to which i replied that she could . Then she said the
waiter told her no and i told the waiter it was ok but she failed to
mention that she also had a nother voucher for 40 dollars that she was
trying to use. At that point I told her that it could only be one
voucher at a time and i can’t discount the table $60 especially when
the cheap bastard only ospent 64 dollars for a table of 3 in a upscale
resstaurant. At this point now she turns into confrontation bitch and
starts saying how slow everything was and the food was no good etc
etc. All of a sudden when I wouldn’t discount all of her groupons we
sucked. I then got frusstrated and said you know what i already am at
the point of not making any money with your fucking cheap as order
I’ll take off the 60 dollars so you came out to eat for 5 dollars and
whatever you paid for your groupon. I regret doing that because of the
bad economy and worried about a bad review i gave in to her.
That will be the last groupon cheap ass who tries to get away eating in nice
places where a pizza is in substitute of bread not your entree. WE are
not a pizza joint. I should of stood my ground and let her pay for
what it should of been with one voucher only being used and if she
made a scene have the cops come. Her husband who must of known her
game left as soon as the bill came. To top it off now she tips the
waiter 10%. There is nothing wrong with using a groupon but spend some
money buy a drink, glass of wine etc. enjoy yourself don’t be looking
to eat for free or 20 dollars in a nice restaurant. I spend more than
that a mcdonalds.
Waitstaff you know the types . The ones that when
you ask for a drink they say no but we will have water and can we get
a lemon wedge. I want to scream no you can’t get a lemon wedge with
tap water order a fucking bottled water and when you ask if they want
a appertizer they assk does it come with bread. Bread is not a fucking
appertizer AND THEY KEEP ASKING FOR MORE BREAD. .,. Please remember we
are all trying to make a living. These are the people trhat don’t tip
on the full amount and always complain on line on how small the
portions are. They are not small it’s upscale dining we don’t feed you
a whole chicken or a pound of dry pasta. My fault for doing a groupon
becuase althogh it brings in some good people it also brings in the
bottom feeders that should stay home and eat ramen sssoup.
