Oh boy. Today was nuts at work (I work at Chilis by the way). I have never seen so many children in the restaurant at one time. I kid you not, at least 100 different children were in this store in the time between 12pm and 2 pm. So what's the problem?
Nothing really, well not for the 95 of those kids.
However, there are always those kids. Yes, those kids. The ones who range from 5 months to 2 years old and the "very responsible" parents decide to take them out to lunch/dinner. The kids who DO NOT shut up, or stop running around the restaurant. There was one baby today at a table on one side of the restaurant screaming bloody murder and I could hear every part of it while setting up food in the kitchen. I also had my own problem child at a table who threw everything from the table onto the floor. Now, being the amazing waiter I am, I said politely "Oh we don't throw those things on the floor silly." To which the parents say.
Oh how cute of her.
Yeah, don't worry. I don't have ANY problem stopping what I am doing in order to pick up the 30 coasters your kid has decided to throw on the ground. That is definitely my responsibility. Oh wait, its not. They're YOUR kids people.
Why is it that most parents don't clean up after their kids throw the sugars all over the table, spill all of their cheerios on the ground, or even if they decide that milk looks better outside of the cup. It is always a small giggle and a "Oh well."
I am just waiting for the day when someone's kid is running around the restaurant and runs into me as I am carrying a tray of food and I spill it on the ground. That will be fun

Hahaha this was so funny to read. What about those parents that let their 8-year-olds yell and talk back to them? And all they say is, "Heh...kids."
That drives me nuts.
