The optimistic pessimist
Two things in different places over the last 2 days.
1.......I asked for a pint of lager top the other day.
It was £4.80 for the pint. The bar attendant then went to the till and added 50p for the shot of lemonade. I didn't question it but I have had a frank discussion in another venue over a pint of lager and lime.
So the pint cost me £5.30 because of the lemonade, but if you're pint is finished off with lemonade then why isn't there a reduction in cost of the lager. After all they are giving you less lager. Regarding the previous mentioned lager and lime where they wanted to charge a ridiculous 90p for the lime., I insisted that they serve me in two separate glasses, the pint of lager in one and the shot of lime in the other.
That's fair isn't it ? I am paying for it aren't I !!!
2 I ordered a sirloin steak the other day. Not cheap these days, this one was £18.95. On the menu it said the steak was served with chips tomato and a full salad garnish. Now I am no fan of salad, which was just as well because on being served there wasn't any on the plate.
There was not a single mention by the staff in a way of an explanation. Now surely they should apologise for not having any and knock a small amount off the cost.
It's not that I was out to save money by the shortcomings, but more of an annoyance that they thought it was acceptable to give you less than what you paid for with no offer of a reduction.
Would you do kick off or accept it ?
