She'd pull a knife and fork out of her back pocket. And possible some spices.
I'm trying to be better organized at work, rather than keeping it all in my head. It's a good thing too, because OMGSOMUCH is going on that even staring at my lists and instructions I'm all
wait, what were we talking about again?!
Oof.
I finally ate at Applebee's! And it was
delicious.
And there looked like a lot of other good things on the menu. So there. The only annoyance was that the check was fourteen-something, so I asked for change from my $20, because I was going to leave a $3 tip. Perfectly respectable. But she came back with a $5 bill for me. I over-tipped out of annoyance. Who does that?
Dude. "Can I get change"
means
"can I get the change broken down into smaller units". Not "can I get back the difference between this and the total on the bill". That part comes by default unless otherwise stated!

that's very sweet of you. not getting the change I asked for is a pet peeve of mine that often results in the server getting a much crummier tip than I had originally intended. Yours was lucky to have you.

Harrumph. What did you eat? And where was this supposedly good chain restaurant in the city? I went to a TGI Fridays once in Manhattan. And it was the sketchiest, most depressing place I have ever been to in New York. When we got there, the police had
already shown up.
