Ok, first off let me start by saying, I am a waffle house lover.
For me to feel the need to say a bad thing about the uniqueness of what a awful house, means it was really bad.
I was in the waffle house on Boatways Rd Saturday 3/16/2013
my "sever" for lack of a more descriptive and derogatory term was SHERYL
but we will get back to that little slice of hospitality in a minute.
There were 3 of us, my wife, daughter and myself. We were at the low bar and it was about 4 pm, not "busy" by waffle house standards. I have seen days it was standing room and ran smoother.
My order, was my standard double hashrowns scattered, covered chunked an topped.
It's never a good thing when they show up BURNED BLACK around the edges. Not cheese burned but potatoes burned to ash. I pushed that bit off the edge and went on to hopefully like the rest. I never found out though. Lets rejoin Sheryl in her spiral of hate and shame.
While giving away my wife's order to co worker as "extra" while she sat there 1 of the 3 of us, with NO FOOD. I inquired as to where her food was, OH yeah that stuff you just gave to your off shift co worker sitting in the corner looking like death warmed over. And could I get a refill on my coke?
5 mine
hand her 2 runny eggs no sausuage
hands my daughter the bacon that went with her waffle 10 min ago
miss she ordered sausage, yeah that plate you just gave away again
and can I get this empty coke filled please? no reply
goes to clear a table
5 min later
cook offers to engage Sheryl in a food fight, give me a reason
finally brings sausage to my wife
miss can I get a soda? or do I need to go to the store next door?
nothing
Sheryl continues to win friends by growling at one of the guys near the register about she hasn't got time to talk to him she is busy and if just one person gives her a reason she is GOING OFF.
Miss can I get a coke? its been 20 min now, I mean really
ask another server can you find me a manager
NOW sheryl has time to tell me she is too damn busy deal with it
manager shows up
Sheryl proceeds to tell me how its MY FAULT
the rest of the staff is hiding they been watching this build the whole shift, knew she was going down in flames.
Sheryl Slams down a coke in front of me tells me again how she is BUSY in front of manager. She has empty tables and chairs at the low bar, she is NOT busy. She is mentally cornered, she is pulling a double as she has made it a point to tell everybody in the place one excuse and you all get it.
I decline the coke, tell the manager there is NO Way in hell I am trusting anything Sheryl brings me, and we leave the plates completely untouched. Really a shame, as I LIKE the waffle house!
will I go back? probably
if sheryl is there I am going to leave though.
Really a shame, it didn't have to be like this.
