Trivial Things That Make You Surly

Went to eat at one of my favorite Dallas restaurants and the guy at the front asked me "can I help you?" in the most abrasive tone possible. I told him "table for 2" and he responded "2 what?". "2 people....for here". "We don't have a server with a name that sounds like that". Someone had to shake him out of the trance he was in so he could realize I was asking for a table for 2 so we could eat at the fucking restaurant. He walks us to the table and continued on saying "ohhhh I thought you were looking for a table with a specific server". I just stared at him. No reaction. This is the same guy who mocked me last Christmas for spelling my wife's name after he kept asking me over and over what I said. "Yeah buddy I can spell". Well obviously not if you're having to ask me over and over again. 

The concept is awesome but the execution is terrible. That was our setup growing up and my mom would always do dishes during movies or TV shows. This was before DVRs so you couldn't just pause and wait for mom to stop banging plates together. The list of shows where I missed most of the episodes because she's slamming dishes is endless. 

Dallas has some really shitty service folks

Scanning qr codes for a menu. Fuck that shit. 

Waitstaff morons. 

 

 

Taco flats. Have to scan a qr code for their tap beer list. I grumble, bartender says its because the list is updated so often, they can't print paper menus. I order. He says, "oh we don't have that one on draft anymore." 

I say then just bring me a german style pilser, which is what the one I ordered was. He looks at me like I'm speaking German.

We and two plumbers have been sitting here at home for three hours waiting for the utility inspector to come by to check the work that was completed last week.
In the meantime we cannot use our water & toilets.
We have tried to communicate via phone messaging & emails to our local utility provider to no avail, as has the plumbing company.
Am getting very pissed off, as this appointment for the inspection was made last week.

Go sit in front of the inspectors haus or ask to use his toilet?

 

We hardly ever speak of it or have to police our own, by this dickhead is the exception.  Bad apple in our barrel.

Poop in a box and mail it to the inspection office.

I go into the office every other week, I rotate with this woman, so we never see each other. Every day, the person in the office has to put the daily filings into a folder and that folder gets put in a filing cabinet. A drawer can fit 6 months of folders in it, so every 6 months you have to start a new drawer. At the beginning of July, I started putting the folders into a new drawer. But when I came back, I noticed she must have forgotten because she put her shit in the wrong drawer. I moved it and didn't say anything.

It has been 6 fucking months and she is still putting her shit in the wrong drawer. I was going to say something but I wanted to see if she would eventually figure it out but nope. I guess she thinks it's like a bag of holding, you can just fill it up forever and it will never get full. If I were a younger man, I might wonder how she could be so oblivious but I'm old and have been married twice, so I know the deal.

behind 3 different people with just one working brake light each today. came from the factory with 3 working brake lights. but you fucks only each have 1. fuckers.

 

also, what the fuck is with the epidemic of people hitting their brakes when you merge in behind them on the freeway? swear two or three times a day i slide behind someone only for them to hit their brakes. there's no one for 400' feet in front of them in their lane and no one in the other lanes in front hit their brakes, so i can only assume it's in reaction to me.

Be gentle, they're new drivers!  Or at least that's the bumper sticker that seemingly half the cars in Austin are sporting.

Those drivers need extra training. Make sure to drift into their lane, tailgate them, and weave right in front of them. It will help with their training.

Most times I park my truck as far away from any other vehicles as possible. I don’t mind the extra distance to walk. Just in the last 5 weeks alone, where I had no choice of where to park, my truck has been hit 3 times. One being a young girl backed into my rear bumper while she was backing out of the parking space behind mine. Fortunately there was no damage to my bumper but messed hers up a bit. Second, someone opened their door into the side of my truck leaving a nice chip in my paint. I have a white truck and now there is a nice quarter inch diameter black spot on my truck. I see it every time I get in my truck. Just today I noticed that someone hit the front of my truck and broke my front license plate holder and put a nice crease in my plate. Just last September someone was vandalizing cars in a parking garage in Shreveport and my truck fell victim to them too. They hit the top of my tailgate and put a big crease in the top of it.

People suck at times.
