One of those days.

The theme of the day? Customers who just don't seem to understand English.

Around 12pm;

Customer sits down
EUAN: How are we today? What would you like?
CUSTOMER: What sort of juice do you have?
EUAN: We have orange, pineapple, watermelon and rockmelon.
CUSTOMER: I'd like an apple juice please.

Hmmm... And then, around 1pm;

Another Customer sits down
EUAN: What would you like today, sir?
ANOTHER CUSTOMER: What sort of beer do you have?
EUAN: Crown, Peroni, VB, Cascade Lite, Fosters Lite, Boags and Carlton Cold.
ANOTHER CUSTOMER: I'll have Stella.
Riiiiight...

I'm a pretty good waiter, and the chances are that if I haven't given you an option, we don't have it. It's like the customers who, when asked if they want a large or regular fruit juice, reply "I'll have a medium, please."

Please listen to us, people. We know of what we speak, and our constantly having to say "sorry, we don't have that" or repeat the options makes us look bad. And we don't like it when you make us look bad. And we make your food and drinks. Where you can't see them. Get the hint.
