An Interesting Night In Winder

You never know what you're going to get in beautiful, scenic Winder GA. Two things happened tonight that I have to share.

1. Recitative had gymnastics class tonight. Out of nowhere in the middle of the class she runs up, throws her arms around me, and says 'Daddy is Recitative's best friend". That'll make your day right there.

2. We went to this new Country food buffet thing (you can tell how low class a town is by the number of buffets they have and the percentage of people who wear set belts- Winder has all the buffets...). OK, here's where it gets wierd. the place is owned and run by Asians, but since it's a country place, all the wait staff is Winder's finest.

This lady (or maybe she was a Fupa incarnate) wanted to take her dessert home. They were trying to charge her $0.50. I can see both sides here- when your food is cheaper than Wendy's, you got to squeeze every penny possible, but she got dessert with her meal why does it matter where she eats it? Anyway this isn't a debate about restaurant management...

So the lady complains to Redneck Waitress 1 who tries to explain (loudly) to her Asian boss why this isn't cool. AB isn't having it, so RW1 goes to get AB husband the owner. Meanwhile RW 2-5 start debating this policy (loudly) in fornt of the entire place- maybe 10 families. they were all like "they're so greedy" and "who cares where she eats it". Anyway ABHTO comes out and tells the Fupa she has to pay $0.50. Fupa of course is now yelling how she'll never come back and she'll tell everyone she knows, yaddayaddayadda.

So I go back to my seat and eat a plate of food- 10 minutes or so. then I go back for more (chicken livers, yummy) and RW2-5 are still talking about how they'll always take the customer's side and all this and how greedy their bosses are. Then they all took a smoke break 3 feet from the front door.

Classy joint! you can't help but wonder if the boss was a redneck, would this have been like this?

Sorry for the length, had to share.

P.S. for the record- I'd have fired all of their asses and hired some illegals :-)

More importantly, how was the country fried steak? You can always measure the level of a buffet by the quality of their country fried steak.

I know where that joint is ! It was a chinese buffet and before that it was a Golden Corral.
I went there when it was GC and while eating I looked up to see a large rat crawling along the top of the wall !
I wonder how big that rat is now !!
