Someone’s Gonna Pay On Valentine’s Day

My boyfriend calls a restaurant to make a dinner reservation for us for Valentine’s Day. When we get there, the restaurant is packed, and there are a bunch of people waiting right inside the door.

My husband goes up to the host and says we have a reservation. He confirms our name and tells us that they don’t typically take reservations for Valentine’s Day, but the guy who took it was new and didn’t know that. He says that since they took the reservation, they will honor it, so they show us to a table right away. We get some dirty looks.

I know it wasn’t our fault, but with all those people waiting, we felt kind of bad.
