Name Calling In Restaurants
Name Calling in Restaurants
By Elton Camp
Writing a nickname on a customer check
Is a way good customer relations to wreck
“Ching and Chang” is what one café wrote
The Asian patrons came to see that note
“Fat Girls,” the server dared to type in
That’s when customer outrage did begin
However, what if it was the other way around
A nickname for the server on the check found
So working from experience, this poem will try
To suggest names that accurately could apply
The server’s hair it easily might curl
If designated as “Dirty Uniform Girl”
Another waitress name that dignity assails
Is to write, “Woman With Dirty Nails”
This truthful name she also should fear
“The flirty ***** who calls me dear”
The server also would protest the mean rat
Who names her, “Are you working on that”
The waiter, who to say it, is enough unwise
Well might not like the alias, “You guys”
And most any server is going to flip
Seeing the nickname, “Deserves no tip”
