If you're looking for something technical, you're in the wrong place! This is just my spot for random thoughts and stories.

Never thought that I see this but…

 
 

We took our Daughter out to dinner last night for her 9th Birthday. She chose "Naked Fish." It’s a great place with great food and awesome Cuban music. We gave our name at the front door and were given a pager because it was a 25 minute wait. We sat for a few minutes when I see a rather huge guy walk in with a young Lady. He is also told that he’d need to wait to be seated. He reluctantly decides to go to the bar.

He returns 5 minutes later angry that he has to wait to be seated. Mind you there are 3 groups of people that were there before him watching this happen.  One of which happens to be my family on our Daughters Birthday.

That’s when it happened. He actually said, “Do you know who I am?” My jaw dropped. I almost laughed out loud but I didn’t know if he was carrying. You never know. He didn’t look quite right. He starts to go on about being the one that handles all of the Naked Fish’s properties. He now wants to see the manager. At this point I’m thinking “remain calm” cause I’m really going to be pissed if this tub of lard gets a seat before us. The Manager comes out and I hear him explaining that it’s “first come, first serve.” Now the guy is beside himself.  At his size, half the place was gone!

Finally one of them points to us. They take us to our seats. As we walk past him I throw a Cheshire cat smile at him. What a piece of sh%t this guy was.

I tell the guy that seated us that I had never seen anything like that before, thinking that he was surprised as well,  but he says, “nah, we get that daily.” What……

Good stuff - I love when "bigshots" get put in their place.
