Odd

Okay, there's odd and then there's this: a guy walks into a bar, see, and he orders two drinks and a steak.

No, no - you're telling it wrong. It was a restaurant. And he got two gin-and-tonics and a ribeye. And then he dashes on the bill.

Four times. At the same restaurant. In one month.

Ahh, but the week after, he was caught. End of story, right? Well, it's actually more odd than that. The guy probably hit that restaurant because it had, even when compared to other restaurant wait staffs, seriously stupid people working there.

First of all, he actually got away four times over four weeks. They served him the same order, and then he dashed on the bill after eating and drinking. A sharp place would have got him the second time. An average place would have got him the third time. But to get away four times?

Bu then the fifth time - what happens? He comes in, make the same order, and they serve him. Yes, he got his two drinks and steak again. Then they gave him the bill - for one meal. So they serve the skip guy and then charge him the single meal price of $26, not $125? Really?

So he skips out and they're waiting for him. And he runs and fights with a cop before he's arrested.

But they couldn't have charged him for the other bills before giving him his fifth steak? Normally, it takes a Repub political appointee to make that sort of mistake.

It seems the stupid is bleeding into the private sector.
