deadbeats and psychos: You know, the normal customers
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the service industry, when someone doesn't tip or tips so low as to insult you, they are called deadbeats. Well, I had forgot about a different type of deadbeat until my co-worker reminded me last night. I was working at the one hotel and still working a couple days at the another hotel as a bartender. I was working a lunch shift at the second hotel when an elderly woman came in and sat in a nice table by the window. Well it seemed she had fallen asleep when the waiter brought her food, so he interrupted her to tell her her lunch was ready and prodded her shortly thereafter only to find out she died while waiting for her food. (No, she didn't wait *that* long.) Of course all the wait staff goes crazy and security is called and they rope off the section with stanchons and 911 is called and they arrive and there's all this chaos because this woman has died and wouldn't you know it? Other patrons were becoming upset that their lunches were taking too long.
I was reminded of this because I was repeating a story I heard from some airline stewards the other night. One was on a flight back from London and a man went crazy and starts yelling and hitting the ceiling which brought down the airmasks and inflated a lifevest and otherwise was causing chaos in coach. The attendant tried to calm him down and crazy says: I don't need anything from you, you faggy spic. To which the attendant replied: Good thing I'm a faggy dego.
Then crazy turns to the other attendant on the other side of the beverage cart and says: And I don't need anything from you either, you black bitch! That flight attendant went Southern Baptist and starts handing off her earrings to a guest and says: Hold my pearls! He don't know who he's dealing with! and starts to climb over the beverage cart. Finally, the air marshal gets a hold of him and cuffs him and sits him down. Crazy starts to cry because he is told he just earned an automatic 15 years in a federal prison for fucking with airline equiptment and personnel.
Now the first thing that happened while crazy went ballistic was the flight attendants from first class had to drop everything and protect the cockpit which is now standard protocol in case the distraction was intentional and terrorists were planning to charge and take over the plane. So now for the rest of the flight, no one in first class gets any service at all. And these people paid 3-4 thousand dollars on their tix.
So the flight attendant who is relating this story to me has barely caught his breath and hasn't had the moment to wipe his forehead when a woman reaches over, touches his arm and says: Sir, I didn't get my vegetarian meal.

It is spelled dago. D-A-G-O. Do you spell wop with an "h" too? I am going to have to teach you how to be a better racist. Lesson One: You have to spell the epithets correctly. If you do well then who knows, some day maybe you will be accepted into the Cu Clux Clan!
