Excuse me, waiter? Waiter!

b

Yes, sir? What can I do for you?

a

I’ve been sitting here for the past twenty min- utes and no one has offered me a glass of water, brought any bread to the table and our appetizers haven’t been served yet! You know, in this kind of establishment, I’d expect much better service.

b

I am sorry, sir. I’ll check on your order right away. C: Relax honey, the place is busy tonight, but I’ve heard the food is amazing. Anyway...

b

Here you are, sir. The foie gras for the lady, and a mushroom soup for you.

a

Waiter, I ordered a cream of mushroom soup with asparagus. This soup is obviously too runny, and it’s over-seasoned. It’s completely inedible!

b

Okay, I do apologize for that. Can I bring you an- other soup, or would you like to order something else?

a

Take this foie gras back as well, it’s rubbery and completely overcooked. And look at the portion size! How can you charge twenty-five dollars for a sliver of duck liver?

b

Right away... sir. C: Honey come on! The foie gras was fine, why are you making such a big deal? Are you trying to get our meal comped again?

a

What do you mean? We are paying for this. If I’m shelling out my hard earned bucks, I expect value for money!

b

Here you are, sir. I hope it is alright now. The chef has prepared it specially for you.

a

Yes, fine. C: Honey, are you alright?
