Four guys walk into the bar, order a bunch of wings and 2 pitchers of premium beer. They eat and drink everything. When the bill comes they say "Wow, why is it so much?" Just on a side note here: their bill was $65 this included, once again, 2 pitchers of beer which accounted for at least $35 of that and 4 and a 1/5 pounds of wings with fries. Personally, I think that's a good deal for four guys to go out and eat and drink. Their server just didn't understand the discrepancy and neither did I. I took it upon myself to actually find out what the issue was before discounting their bill. The conversation went something like this:
Me: Could you please tell me exactly what is wrong with your bill because we're having a hard time understanding what the discrepancy is?
Cheapo: Yeah, it's too expensive. We actually wanted the smaller pitcher for our second round.
Me: But you drank the large one, yes?
Cheapo: Yes.
Me: So, why didn't you tell your waitress that it was not what you wanted when she brought it over?
Cheapo: Well... umm.. studder studder... I don't know the difference in size between the big one and the small one.
Me: sigh. You got the large pitcher first so you knew when you saw the second one that it was clearly not the small one but you drank it anyway. Pause. Thanks just wanted to clarify that.
Their bill was discounted and they actually tipped her very well. I guess it was just to prove that they are not in fact the cheapos they painted themselves out to be.
This is a good example of "The Customer is Always Right" is wrong theory.
