Tempest Outside The Teapot

Tempest Outside The Teapot

Back when I used to work as a server, we were serving in this huge dinner in a hotel, more than two hundred people and five servers on the floor, so it was pretty chaotic, but we were handling it well.

At the end of the dinner:

Lady: “I want a tea.”

I promptly brought her the tea sachet, cup, and a teapot with boiling water. All of a sudden, she raises her hand and calls me over like a dog. When I got to the table, she raised her voice at me, saying:

Lady: “This water is not hot enough! The tea didn’t even dissolve, the water is still clear! Bring me another hot water that’s actually hot this time!”

I’m confused because you could SEE the steam coming out of the teapot.

Me: “But the water is hot—”

Lady: “—Bring me another water and another tea. Actually, no, don’t bring the tea, cause this one wasn’t even made.”

Okay. F*** you.

I left and brought everything back. Exactly everything, done the exact same way. When I went to clean their table, she didn’t even drink the tea. Turns out the color of the tea isn’t always the same; it depends on oxidation, and the tea she asked for was elderflower tea. So yeah, what the f*** did you expect?
