Bitch Better GET My Money

dine and dashSo some red-haired mop-headed bitch comes into my bar last night. She orders a glass of wine and some garlic knots. She finished the 1 glass and asked for another. I poured it for her but seemed a little hesitant. She then asked, “Do you take American Express or Discover?” I responded, “We don’t take American Express but we do take the Discover.” She replied with a simple, “O…okay.” She proceeded to ask for a small pepperoni pizza. I rang it in and go about my job. It comes out and she only eats 2 pieces of it before she gets up to go to the bathroom. At some point she got a Coors Light bottle from the other bartender. Something wasn’t setting well with me when I saw that beer sitting there but I couldn’t pinpoint it. The owner happened to be right at the front door and I asked her to watch the lady until I could get up there. Sure enough she pretended to go to the bathroom and then turned and walked outside. The owner followed right behind her making it very obvious we were watching her. She was “on the phone” when she supposedly told the person she would call them back. She walked back in and went and sat back in her seat at the bar.

I knew I had a bad feeling about this woman so I refused to go back behind the bar and kept myself posted at the front door. Sure enough 1 minute later she comes up by the front door and says, “Have you guys found a phone? I lost it and I don’t know where it is. I’m going to go look in my car.” The owner says, “I just watched you put it in your purse when you were just up here.” “No, no I have 2 phones and I can’t find the other one.”  I said, “If you need to go out to your car to check then I need to take a credit card from you.” This being said as she was walking out the front door…again. She pretended to have a confused look on her face and said she would just look later. She walked back in and sat back down in her seat….again.

Me keeping myself at the host stand guarding the door she comes back a third time. She says, “I gave a credit card to the other bartender” as she proceeds to walk out. I run to the bar yelling the other bartenders name and demand he runs that card ASAP! I said, “Just do it, I’ll tell you why later!!” He says it’s no good just as I suspected. The owner is already chasing this woman down as I’m running not far behind. The woman gave a fake card, was in her car and had her reverse lights on when we got to her. The owner knocks on her car window as I’m copying her license plate number, make, model and color of her car. The owner is demanding she come back in and pay her tab before we call the cops. She made it clear that I had already copied her license plate and was prepared to turn her in for fraud. The lady puts her car in park and says, “I wasn’t leaving.” Ummmm your reverse lights were on BITCH! All of the sudden it clicks!! This bitch walked out on her tab 3 weeks ago. The woman comes back in and the owner and I tag team her ass.

She tries saying that she comes in all the time with her kids, then she says that her kid (singular) is a server and that she would never do that and then she has no money. Nothing she was saying was making any sense. The owner continued to tell her, “I don’t like when people lie to me and that is what you are doing. You need to call someone to bring you money or you can use the ATM machine but you are not leaving here without paying your tab so you better figure something out.” I added, “Where’s your Discover credit card?”She says, Huh?” I replied, “You asked me earlier if we took that credit card but you have given us 2 fake cards that were both Visa’s. You obviously were lying to me too because you never gave us a Discover and I don’t appreciate it either. And I’m 95% sure you’re the same one that walked out on your tab 3 weeks ago. I know with every bone in my body that it was you!!!” She comes back with, “You know it’s me or you think it’s me?” Knowing it was her I wanted to physically assault this woman by beating her ass into the ground. I said, “Yeah, it was you!! And you’re welcome for paying for your tab 3 weeks ago because I was the one that had to pay it!!” The owner is standing there continuing to tell her to figure something out or she is going to call the police. She then says, “This is all the money I have” as she pulls out $14. “Can’t you just take all my information and I can come back and pay you?” The owner replies with, “NO! You better call someone. I don’t care who it is.” The woman says that she doesn’t have her phone that we know is in her purse so we dial the number for her and let her use ours.

The owner asked if I had it, meaning that I could handle the situation from here so she could cash out some of the servers. I stood there glaring at this woman as she tried whispering on the phone. She hung up and asked, “Where do you want me to go?” I said, “You can go sit down over there” pointing back over to the bar.

The woman went and sat back in the seat she had been sitting in as I sat at the bar across from her. The other bartender had been working without me this whole time as I was trying to take care of the situation. He was getting a little busy but I didn’t want to take my eye off this bitch. I finally got Ryan to keep an eye on her. He works there as well but was up there drinking since it was his day-off. I went back behind the bar and tried to help out to get caught back up. Everyone at the bar now aware of the situation just kept watching me as they were quite scared of me. They had never seen me this pissed off but understand why. After 5 minutes of being back behind the bar and this bitch still waiting on someone to come up with some money to pay her tab, she has the audacity to ask, “Can I get a to go box?” I glared at her and responded with, “YEAH, WHEN I GET MY MONEY!!!” Was that a joke? This bitch has me running around babysitting her ass and thinks I’m going to allow her to take her food home.

Some guy ends up coming and paying her tab about 30 minutes later. All I know is that I will never forget that woman’s face. I don’t care if she shave’s her head bald because I have her memorized. I hope that something horrible and tragic happens in her life because what she tried to pull is one of the most unethical things a human being can do. If you can’t afford to pay your tab and know that you can’t before you start ordering everything then TAKE YOUR ASS HOME!! If you can’t afford to tip, then go home because that is a part of the going out to eat experience as well. Bitch…I hope you rot in hell!! What goes around comes around and you have it coming to you tenfold!!

People in the Downtown Bars Today

hoboI think I had every bum, crackhead, hobo, heroin addict and homeless person come into my bar today. They are dirty, they smell, are always drunk and high and they drive me up the wall considering they don’t tip. I DON’T GET IT! If you have to live off government money, then you don’t need to be in the bar drinking. You’re the trashiest people I’ve ever seen and you need to use the money that comes out of MY pocket and buy a bar of soap you nasty, stank swine’s…you make me sick! Keep your ass out of my bar and don’t come back. You make the other guests feel uncomfortable and so help me God if you ask ondrug addicte more person for money, you are going to be banned permanently if my prayers get answered.  And also, try changing your clothes every once in a while and put a bra on already!!

 I want to make something clear. These aren’t people that are down on their luck and trying to get back on their feet. They are pieces of shit that do nothing to better their situation and are only looking to get their next fix. They do nothing to better the community as a whole and should be cut-off from receiving government money when there are plenty of people who could put it to good use. These are the people I’m talking about!!

I Got the $$$

So fact is I have come up with the money for my classes this semester…..YAY!  I’ve been going back and forth as to whether I’m actually going to take them though. I’m working as much as possible between my 2 jobs and think I rather just work and not have to focus on writing 100 page research papers too. These classes are intense and I’d rather work and save my money. In this economy I need to focus on paying my bills and not doing homework. I already have my BS so my MBA is not so important at this time….that’s my final answer! I will get it but I might have to take a year off first. Being financially stable is a necessity for survival. I feel like I’m talking liking a cave-woman but it’s a true story. I know you get what I’m saying…..

No Money For Classes :(

So I’ve been trying to pick up as many shifts as possible at work in order to pay for my classes this semester but I don’t think that’s going to happen. It’s quite stressful trying to figure out how I’m going to pay my bills let alone pay for anything extra like school. The tuition rises 18% every semester and the prices per credit hour are becoming quite ridiculous. I’ve already had to drop one class and am hoping to be able to come up with the money for the other class in 10 days. I’ve got my fingers crossed and I hope you do too! I guess the worst case scenario is that I can’t afford to pay this semester but can work like crazy to save up and pay for the spring semester.

It just sucks because I don’t make that much money but I make too much to qualify for FAFSA or any grants. What is that shit? I can’t afford to pay my monthly bills but the government thinks I can afford thousands of dollars a semester for classes and book. . . I don’t get it. If I don’t qualify, then who does?! Somebody show me the secret to getting my hands on some of this money or help me find a real job already because I have not been successful at that either!
