exactly the context I was speaking in. You really think I'd walk into a restaurant with a 40 minute wait and demand an ostentatious, time-consuming meal? I do it whenever I'm casually having a conversation with the owner and he suggests I have X or Y. and I genuinely appreciate them going out of their way to make my experience more enjoyable. You're just a little quick to jump on me tbh.
Exactly. Every first Friday of the month we do these free passed appetizers for a couple of hours for a happy hour kind of thing. Last night, one of the regulars that has Celiac's disease came in. I realized that five of the six apps we were passing had gluten in them, and I didn't want her to only get one, so on the line I made her some shrimp spring rolls from scratch, which are not on the menu. I was happy to do it. She is a good customer, we weren't very busy, and it didn't slow down the service or make anything an issue. She loved the spring rolls, and more importantly she truly appreciated me doing that for her when I didn't have to.
But if someone had come in and ordered spring rolls that night, I would have told the waitress to **** off and die. Unless said waitress was my girlfriend, in which case I would have just told her to **** off.
