Volumetric Distress
(I make the drinks for the restaurant. A few minutes after delivering an order to the table, the server for that section comes up to my bar.)
Server: “You’re not going to believe this.”
Me: “What is it?”
Server: “The lady who ordered the pint of soda…”
Me: “…”
Server: “…she says she wants her pint in a smaller glass.”
(We separate the drink out into two half-pint glasses, not wanting to rip her off and waste any of it seeing as she already paid. Her response?)
Customer: “I don’t understand how you expect me to drink all this!”
