Casey NewtonJust heard the three most devastating words you can hear at a restaurant (“is Pepsi ok”)
Tim BondVery common interchange with me and servers:
ME: "I'll have Coke."
Them: "Is Pepsi ok?"
"Mountain Dew."
My friends laugh every time this happens.
Gay Fat FriendI served for ten years and I never understood servers that said “is it ok?” and not “we have Pepsi”. Don’t ever give a customer a chance to be rude. Asking if something is ok gives them the upper hand. Never relinquish power.😂😂😂
Right?
That reminds me of a story. At a Good Times* drivethru near me at like 2 am the guy simply said "we don't serve Coke" after I had put in my full order and he didn't say anything else. After a few seconds of silence I said "ok" and drove somewhere else. (*Good Times is, as the name suggests, specifically for the munchies, so I always figured dude was working while high.)
