Hello ats! I picked the best forum for this but if it needs to move so be it.
Okay I live on the west coast of Canada and yesterday the place I work at (a local restaurant) hosted a get together/meet up for our local
Conservative Political Party of Canada.
www.conservative.ca... The reservation was for 60+ people and set for 2:00 PM. The following
is what happened and why I now not only dislike the >insert F-bombs< conservatives but all politicians.
So our Chef prepared a beautiful menu with fresh salmon, steamed mussels, fresh raw oysters, tuna mousse on toasted french bread, fruits and veggies,
fresh blackened cod and a few other things I don't remember. At about 2pm the floor manager gets an email saying the party will be late. They show up
at 4:30pm.
Okay no big deal except now the dinning room is filled with 60-ish phat cats in suits and our regular dinner service is going to be affected. People
come in for dinner starting around 5pm to 8pm it is when we are the most busy but I'll get to that later. The first people to arrive looked at the
drink menu that we prepared it was a choice of craft beers and high balls for $5 each. One politician got mad at the manager for not providing Grey
Goose on the cheep drinks menu. (Really..?) He made a fuss and my manager caved and gave him one Grey Goose drink at a very reduced price.
30 minutes later the food starts going out, it was set up on tables buffet style. The wait staff witnessed politicians grabbing whole fillets of fish
with their bare hands and stacking it on plates. (Table manners? Not when your a Conservative..) They also were very demanding and loud I could hear
them shouting and being the merry fat pigs they are from the kitchen. Okay it's just after 5:00 the regular customers start coming in....sorta. Some
people would walk in the front doors look at the people in suits standing taking up 80% of the floor space and would just turn around and walk out.
One table sat it was 4 people and they got up and left before the water even arrived because it was too loud. This went on until about 8:30 pm when
they started to leave. At the same time my friends came in to have a few beers and some food.
6 of my friends came and sat at a corner table out of the way. One was a Native Indian, really great guy great sense of humor. He told me later when I
was sitting with them after I was off about an hour later that he heard the following conversation between two a$$holes...er I mean Conservatives. He
got up to go to the washroom and walked by their table.
Con. #1 "How will the First Nations feel about this?"
Con. #2 "You mean the dumb nations, lower the price of Scope and they should be fine for a while."
They both erupted into laughter after this. My native friend said it took every ounce of will power to not hit the guy.
I was blown away at how they conducted themselves in what they thought was a "privet function" oh on a good note they did tip well....
Thoughts?
This picture sums up my thoughts on ALL politicians.
