"A buh...Wine."
ok, so today at work was good, we didn't have training but just shadowed around a waiter. Shane is both an asshole and a really good waiter. I don't know, anyways, he's 31 and I convinced him to buy a bike. I must be a really good motorcycle salesman cause that's two people I've convinced so far in a week. Damn. No bike talk though. So, I'm following him around and he finally lets me greet a table. I've done really well throughout training and I'm finally getting comfortable with the processes, but I came up to this table and am holding a wine bottle like I'm supposed to. Here's how the conversation should have gone.
"Hello Ladies, how are you today? Great! Boy, it sure is a gloomy day outside, hope this rain clears up. My name is Ryan and I'm a trainee, I'm shadowing Shane here and we look forward to serving you today. If I may, I'd like to point out a few things on our menu here; we have great peach bellini Ice Teas which are pre sweetened and very tropical or maybe you would be interested in this great Cavit Pinot Noir. It's a medium bodied semi dry wine with a smooth velvety finish that would compliment the stuffed mushrooms very well, which are stuffed with breaded veal, ground beef, and peppers and a creamy garlic dipping sauce. Does any of that sound good today?"
Here's how it went. "Hello ladies. how are you? If ...ummm...ubah...We have a wine here." FUCK! I suck sooo much.
