[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2593308, member: 401801"] I quite understand your point. I once had a girl almost in tears when I asked for a bratwurst without the bread. Saying the chef'd be mad at her if she accommodated my request. I told her I'd happily pay for the bread without having it. If added, I'd just throw it out, and it's perfectly good bread that someone else'd love to have. But if she really *needed* me to have the bread on my plate, fine. That seemed to relax her some. No problem after that, she just thought I wanted to pay less, poor thing, and she completely panicked. If it can't be done, it can't be done, and I completely understand that. I just wish some people weren't so mean about it, or snarky, or try to humiliate you either one on one or in front of others. I'll just go for a drink instead if I have to, but I can do without being humiliated. It's hard enough for me to talk to people in general. It happens rarely, but it does happen, every now and again. (And I do ask very nicely! I know I'm a pain in the ****! ;) ) [/QUOTE]
