despite my previous comment, i think the attitude is a bit different in EU than in the US. over there, you need to specifically order "tap water" or else they bring you a bottle. i was at a restaurant in Amsterdam one time and ordered 'tap water' and the server, no joke, literally scoffed at me and goes "... sir, this is a restaurant." i said "uh, i get that and i am ordering food. but i don't need a bottle of fancy water and i am perfectly happy with tap water.' he brought out like a 6oz glass and only gave me one single refill, after asking twice. I feel like that's more of a European thing. The bastardized Macys' quote "The customer is always right" is something that's ruining America. Also, they don't normally accept tips in other countries so maybe he's just being a snob. --- I am that Naruto crap. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
