Zaida Matthews and one of her co-workers had taken some time off to do the women's march after Donald Trump's inauguration. After an exciting few days, it was time for her to get back to work. At one of the tables, there was a group of customers who had also attended the inauguration. Unlike Zaida, these cowboys had gone to the inauguration to celebrate it instead of to protest it.

She offered them refills and provided prompt service. She joked with them and made sure that they enjoyed their meal. Even though their political views were wrong, they seemed like decent guys.

After the cowboys finished their dinner, they ordered some coffee to sober up. Since their families were back at home, they started texting them. One of the members of the group, Ray Lambert, noticed something unusual as he scrolled through his phone. An advertisement for an online casino had just appeared. Normally, he ignored ads.

    Then I brought it to the table and she saw it had onions in the sandwich and it was a whole sandwich. I should ask the lady did she want half or whole of it and tell her the ingredients of the sandwich for her then she wouldn’t have complained about it. Another example, when you take someone food and you didn’t ask them about their rewards card and you already cash them out and then they ask you why didn’t you ask them about their rewards card and you see that when you told them to put it in last minute they could have got something of their food free or 2.00 off…

    That summer afternoon, as I remember it, was doubtlessly a commemorable one. Breezy, yet humid.

    The words that came out of her mouth didn’t know sound anything close to what she wanted to ask us. This lady was foreign and didn’t speak English very clearly. This can get very frustrated for some people trying to order their food. I know when you have to spend more time trying to understand someone than you spend on picking out what you would like to eat, this could make someone very angry! These norms is becoming more and more accepted because there are so many foreigners in our country and unless you want to starve then you have to try to understand them.…

    Amanda stood behind the front desk of the Metropolitan, a 376-room upscale hotel, and tried to ignore the butterflies in her stomach. It was just her second day on the job, and there was so much to remember! She glanced over at Ron, standing at the other end of the counter. It was comforting to have him working the shift with her—he had worked for the Metropolitan for two years and had been a big help yesterday whenever she got flustered or confused. Her first day was extremely busy because everybody was checking in for the annual Aluminum Siding Trade Show and Convention that started today. In a way, it was good that her first day was so busy, because she hadn't had time to be nervous. But today, most of the hotel's guests were off attending the show at the convention center downtown and the Metropolitan was relatively quiet.…

    Around the corner we could all see our entrees coming our way. The entrees were served with happy faces all around the table. After our waitress made sure everything had come to the table, she went back to her other tables. Each of us began to cut into our steaks in front of us.

At this moment our “experience” turned to a downward slope. My father called over the waitress to tell her about our complaint. She apologized for the over cooked steaks and had them sent…
