Bob, are you running out of imaginary stories to post.  This one is almost identical to a previous post you've made under the same title.

It's low season now, isn't it?

Barely started just now, the seasons are not the same anymore as they used to be.  Many southern islands it even remains busy all year round.

Of course it did. 

[ChaiyaTH]

Was in a place myself yesterday with a friend, when the bill came of our stuff together (never paid attention on previous visits) there was a service charge of like 300 baht alone. This while we effectively had like zero service, what we received was nothing better or different than what any waiter would do. 

Seems they only get more expensive and greedy while the actual quality, quantity of food and service only goes down over the years. Could barely find other customers after 9PM there while it is a rooftop and friday night, inside an actual hot spot of the city.

Tonight was a complete and utter nightmare...

 

I had just arrived back in the big smoke after a nice few days away with my good friend peter.

 

I felt a bit peckish so I headed to one of the most famous sois in the capital and sat at one of the most well known restaurants...

 

Waitress right from the off had a face on her, she looked absolutely furious.

then I ordered a pint of lager and she asked "how drunk are you?"

I said what the hell are you on about (this was my first pint of the day)

she said we have a policy that we don't serve drunk customers.....

 

bear in mind this was in the busiest soi in one of the busiest restaurants in the busiest part of town  - everyone there was drunk to some extent, but this was my first pint...

I was also starving, so I ordered a nice hearty meal as well.

 

when the pint came over she literally threw it at me and gave me a snarling look - at which point i said stick yer pint and food up yer arse, im going to the american joint round the corner, which I did and it was delightful. No fuss, no drama, just chili dogs and chili fries galore with bud on tap....

 

what the hell is going on here at all?

if a waitress behaved that way in the west she would at the very least get a firm dose of the verbals, or even worse get spat on..

 

They really need to up their game - I can't wait till low season when they are all skint and desperate again.

 

regards,

bob.

Did you dream all that stuff???

I can't think it was reality 😳

Actually the behaviour of staff might have been appropriate 👍if it wasn't only a dream.😱

You are making it up at least in part.

You say she brought your pint and  "literally threw it at me".

So that didn't happen and it raises the question of how much of your story is similarly exaggerated.

Are you easily offended ?

Do you misinterpret the motives, attitudes and feelings of other?

You seem to have many subjectively bad experiences, more than one would expect by chance.

 

Glad to hear the chili cheese dog place was nice though.

You seem to present a red flag to staff at various locations.. They can't all be wrong.

If not one of your usual imaginary tales you had obviously been there before and they recognized you and treated you with the contempt you seemingly deserved!

Well done for the waitress to even try and serve you.

You off course, in the real world, paid for the lager and the food before storming out.

what a way to talk about bar staff when you made this little story up, Earnest Hemingway you aint !

[Colki]

I can usually tell by the headline Bob that you are the op....I always look forward to your exploits and they usually put a smile on my face. 

 

Take care and make sure you stay safe.

I'm done going out now until the standard of service improves here (wishful thinking, maybe)?

 

Think i'll stay home and count my money instead...

I am flattered, but there are 20-30 people who regularly comment on all your windup topics. I guess that makes them all stalkers too? How did I manage to win the honorable prize as No. 1 fan?

First thing that goes when mass tourism takes over is the service quality. 

 

They know they have plenty of others behind you, so need to make any effort. Stick to local places.

I've decided.

 

I'm staying at home, eating smoked haddock with a side of caviar, along with a slice of warm french bread, washed down with a a glass of 1999 Leroy Musigny...

 

The bars ain't getting another cent of my hard earned dough!

 

Stuff 'em, and I hope they all close down when the rains come...
