A Little Too Much?

As many of you may allready know, I work as an waitress. I love my jobb, and I am serious when I say I don't work for the tips. A smile froma guest, and a thank you goes a long way. I really apreciate that. But, how do you repay good service? What is enough, and when is it too much?

Yesterday, I had a guest who took it over the top, at least for me. I don't mind beeing hugged. But, I don't hug people I don't know. I really don't like beeing huged by total strangers either...
What happend was that I din't have all the fancy machines on me (like an electronic bill-machine, printer, and what not) because there wasn't that much people sitting in the terrase. So, I would go in and print everytime. It's very heavy to carry round all those things on your belt, believe me! But, this one guy, at one of the tables, very close to the main restaurant asked for the bill, and I had a little to do, so I tolled him to wave for the other waitress, who HAD all of these machines. But, curently she was a little bussy too. So, I tolled him if he waited a few secs, I'd go in and print the bill, and get the transaction machine, if he wanted to pay by credit card.

So, I go get this, and I imagine he was in his late 60's, and had a hard time understanding the machine, so I walked him through. Suddenly, he leans over, and hugs me. And since I was standing up, and he sitting down, it was more of an hugging my stomock! I am not one to push people away, but I did not like it. He was all "thank you sweetie, thank you". Then, he get up, and he hugs me again! But, this time more of an "let me put my head on your shoulder" kinda way. And the the crown of the work, he kissed me on my cheek!

I apreciate people liking my service, but isn't this too much? I am just asking?



So, then you have been worned! If you don't know me, do not hug me! Hahha...

That's all for now, more later
