I feel so bad for waiters

A few weeks ago we were at a very fancy hotel (Skavania Lodge in Stevenson, WA) with some friends. One of them decided to stay an extra night and since I didn’t have work the next day I decided, “fuck it, why not” (it was half off a night then).

We start helping them not realizing what we had done. Turns out they just wanted dessert and since they didn’t have any they left. I kid you not when the waiter apologized about the menu for the situation, they said “what situation?” Thank you for reading this far, now I will excuse myself.
