Happy Father's Day


Today is Father's Day so I am taking the day off from writing to sit on the couch and drink beer while watching a game. I'm not really sure what season it is, but I will find a game to watch. And I will smoke a cigar. I will bar b-q and then go watch a boxing match all the while scratching my balls. I will be enjoying the company of my kids who each made me a homemade card that I will read once and then put away somewhere to save forever so no one will know that I am an old sentimental softie. At the end of the day I will fall asleep on the couch with my hand down my pants. Happy Father's Day.

In the meantime, you can read this old tired summer repeat:


I am moved to write because today some lady threw her baby into a mega-stroller and rolled it into my station. The baby looked like it was a few weeks old and I don't know why the fuck anyone would drag their weeks old baby to eat at my place, but she did. Actually I should say her nanny did. Mother just talked on the phone and took cell phone pictures of it. Maybe she was Grandmother. Bitch looked old. First thing: "Can you turn down the music? The baby is asleep." Whatever. Point of story is when they left. I went to clear the table and there was a tiny diaper rolled into a ball that was sitting with the dirty dishes and used napkins. Like I won't notice a fucking dirty diaper. So I have decided to make a list of things to not leave at your table:

  • diapers
  • snot rags
  • babies
  • trash from other restaurants
  • hair pieces
  • magazines that I don't want to read like Time or Ladies Home Journal
  • crappy cell phones
  • your bad attitude
  • odor
  • junk mail
  • your phone number (ugly people only)
  • apple cores, banana peels or sunflower seeds
  • used gum
  • gum of any kind
  • dirty diapers

As a server myself, I think you missed something on you list...ANYTHING BLOODY (napkins or band-aids)!

Also vomit. I know a girl who quit waitressing the day a guy handed her a plate that his kid had vomited on. He'd covered it with a napkin and didn't say anything. The puke sloshed on my friends arm and within five minutes she'd given her notice.

After that, I told myself I would also quit if I ever got someone's vomit on me.

Then I half-hoped it would happen.

wow, that's disgusting...you should save it somehow and if they ever return, bring it out on a sliver platter garnished with a rose...ugh...some people...would you honestly be surprised if you came across a used condom or something? (Of course, you would be the 2nd person to come ac--never mind...)

btw, happy father's day to everybody who takes care of their children, and those who do not, please eat a lightbulb...that is all.

Ewww...I never leave my sons dirty diapers anywhere!! They sell little plastic baggies to put them in so I tie them off and throw them in my diaper bag and put them in my trash when I get home.
