Since when did......
ordering water become temperature specific? You go to a restaurant....you get a glass of water....it's free......don't bitch about it.....and you already know how I feel about this lemon in the water thing.......we used to just bring a glass of water....and people were happy.....now they want it with lemon.....some go so far as to ask for water with LIME......the minute I hear that I want to look them in the eye and say, "You're really not that special".....
Now....some want water without ice......ok....that saves a step...(although it puts you out of rythm)....
...but when they start with..."I want room temperature water...no ice....not cold"....okay.....I'm pretty clear on the "no ice" thing......but then someone else at the table picks up the ball....."I want warm water,"....."ok....like for tea?...you want a teapot of water?"......"NO." (apparently I'm not getting this)....."No, I want warm water....not hot...not cold...tap water is too cold....."
You gotta be freakin' kiddin' me!!!!
Alright...let's go around the table one more time......Water with just a little ice...got it....tap water....got it......water, no ice with a lemon, but pour it first before the water runs too long and gets cold......got it....warm water, not hot, not as cold a tap water....got it...so now I've got to blend hot water with cold water to get to a specific undetermined temperature.....tell ya what ladies....we'll get these to the exact temperature you want...I'll be right back...I think I saw rectal thermometer in the medicine cabinet......

i always thought when i order anything it should be taken care of. i mean thats why they call it Wait staff. They are getting paid to wait on me. I ussually pay 25% if i am being a little more demanding. I dont get it. That is why i could never be a waiter, because of peoples demands. i found another job.
