re: I need to hear bad waiters stories

I ordered a bottle of wine at an asian place in Cleveland. The waitress obviously had not been trained in this aspect of table service.

She fumbled over the bottle for a bit almost to the point of dropping it. I asked her if I could try and she immediately handed the bottle over. I showed her how to properly uncork the wine. She seemed genuinely appreciative.

I took my corkage fee off her tip.
