Ok, so I'm helping my cook on the grill line a server comes to me and tells me that a customer is upset because we don't have strawberry ice cream. She tells me that I need to go and talk to them.
I walk up to the table and ask what I can do to help them. This 19yr'ish kid tells me that he is upset because we don't have any strawberry ice cream. I apologized to him and tell him that I can go get some vanilla and put some strawberries on it for him. I had a very large smile on my face. So the kid looks at me and points at the chocolate shake in front of him, tells me that he wants a free refill on the shake and he didn't really want the shake until his meal came. I again apologized and laughed as I told him that I couldn't give him a free shake because we didn't have strawberry ice cream and then picked up the shake, told him It would come out with his meal and then put it right back on the table because the food was just coming out. Again, with a very large smile on my face.
The next thing, the cooks made too many Pancake Puppies for that table so i took the extra four to the back and ate them. The 'kid' wanted me again at the table. I walked over and he has pulled apart one of the six (the other 5 were already eaten) and tells me that at the denny's he goes to in Michigan they don't come out with little burnt pieces. I laughed again and told him those were the blueberry's that we put in it. He said he didn't want to pay for it. I told him that I would take it off the bill and went to the computer terminal to discount his check ;) Quick calculations, 6 puppies in an order, all but 1 were ate, $1.99 for 6..... $1.99 divided by 6 approx= $0.35. Yes... I took $0.35 off his bill and handed it back to him. Smiling still.
He then went to the cash register and when he gave me his money he forcefully dropped a coin on the counter and then when I gave him his change back with a smile on my face....
