Unpaid bills?
Unpaid bills?
From Kompas
On Feb. 10, 1995 we visited O'Reiley's in the Grand Hyatt
Hotel for some weekend entertainment and to listen to the music,
after having dinner in Grand Cafe. This was the second time we
visited the place to relax after a tiring office day.
There were no seats left for us, because many other people
were there for the same purpose.
After waiting for about two minutes in a corner a waiter came
to us. We thought the waiter would take an order from us. But to
my amazement, and beyond our expectation, the waiter asked: "The
other day you drank here, but you have not paid the drinks yet,
have you?" We were shocked at this statement. I was sure that my
fiance had paid all the bills when we drank there in October
1994.
At that time, October 1994, we had met with some friends of my
colleagues who were there earlier than us. We talked for some
time and they left earlier because they wanted to go to a disco.
Then the waiter, in an unfriendly manner, forced us to pay the
unpaid bills. The waiter wanted to know my telephone number but I
refused to tell him.
I tried to convince the waiter that he might be wrong because,
it was by this time, already five months ago. The waiter replied
impolitely: "I have never forgotten the faces of people who have
not paid their bills."
I deeply deplored the way the waiter dealt with us.
