I would think you prefer coffee :p:

Load it up with sugar to make it extra sticky.

That has happened to me too Corey at a buffet type place. I was with my older DD (8 at the time) Set the scene.....winter, brrr, cold, snow, =heavy coats and etc needed to survive outside. We go get our food and leave our coats on the seat. Come back with 3 full plates between us. Set down the plates and walk about 10 yards to where the drinks are. Takes 2 minutes max. Turn around and POOF went the food. Coats are still there, food all gone. Waiter's excuse, I thot they were done since no one was there. UMMMM, yeah we like to pay in advance for our food and run around outside with no coats on in 20* weather. It wasnt crowded so wouldnt have been hard to discern what table went with who..

I am not dumb enuf to leave my purse tho. We got comps on the meal there and sent coupons to use at any of the chain through the mail.

Uh... That's where the waiter looks at the plates before taking them, to decide if they've even been touched. Even at a buffet, it's not too terribly difficult.

Apparently it is for some people. :D:

Thing was, he didnt just take the plates. He cleaned the whole table and reset it for the next customer.

I saw something that this reminds me of when I stayed at the Poly a couple of years ago. I was hanging out in the lobby waiting for the rest of my family to show up. A couple of darling boys walk up to the little pond in the center and proceed to start ripping out plants and tossing them around. The parents were not three feet away, and couldn't have cared less. I looked at the kids, and looked at the dad and said "You have got to be kidding me".

Reminds me of the little darling I saw hock back and spit into the manatee tank. I was eye level with him in my wheelchair and I just looked at him like, you did not just do that.

Spawn of Satan smiles at me and hocks up another one.

He was with an enormous tour group and it was apparent that none of the adults gave a rodents posterior what was going on.

I smiled at him very sweetly and said something to the effect of "Can you swim?"

He gave me a dirty look and walked away. Truth be told I never would have persecuted the poor manatees by chucking the brat in, but god, it was tempting. I wanted to have the whole group thrown out.

It made me really sad to learn the reason that the beautiful birds were taken from the Poly lobby and relocated to Animal Kingdom was "guest abuse". I got that from a Poly front desk CM :( Heartbreaking.

As far as the gingerbread house- gingerbread makes me violently ill just to smell it so we have to steer clear of it in any form- especially that ginormous house! I can't imagine people EATING off of it! *THUD*

We have had our share of attempted table stealing at local restaurants. My first name is pretty common so I always give the podium people my nickname because if they call my name five women will turn around and try to take my table LOL

Far as Disney restaurants go, though I really wanted to scream at the manager of Chefs de France on our last trip. Our experience was so bad there (it had been one of our all time favorites in Epcot too) that we won't be going back any time soon.

For starters: We waited forever past our seating time. I realize we were there during free dining but it royally ticked me off that there was an older couple there- the lady had her husband who had alzheimers, and they kept calling other parties before seating these people. Our seating time was 45 minutes past theirs!

Her husband was getting agitated and they were about to leave when they called our table for 4. I was going to ask the manager to give this lady our table- we'd been talking quite some time and I felt really bad for her situation and wanted them to go ahead.

Well _!)*^)*&%!*^$! manager comes out and I say to him, "Excuse me but could you check to see why this couple has not been seated yet? Their seating was ages before ours and-" before I said "I"d like to give them our table" the idiot glares at me and says "Just go to your table! Don't worry about anybody else. I will deal with everybody else."

I should have walked out.

THe meal sucked. They had gutted the menu for free dining obviously- the service was horrible and our waitress ended up charging us for the Perrier we should have had for free as our non-alcholic drink.

The whole experience was a joke. My only regret is not insisting they call someone higher up than the idiot with the clip board so I could have his *** chewed out for the way he talked to me, and the other lady.

Interestingly, that couple was seated immediately after we sat down- right behind us, and the lady thanked me for what I'd tried to do.

If someone had tried to steal my table, especially if they tried hanging with my family, they would've been set straight before we were seated. We would've creamed his ugly ass.

Susi, I hear you. I had basically the same thing growing up, so I can relate. Thing is, my dear friend Arthur in my fingers would protest mightily, and with a couple of expensive veneers on my front teeth, already in need of maintenece, I don't think I could bite very well anymore. Getting old sucks....

And if the restaurant staff were rude to us, and food wasn't good, etc., we would've raised a major stink. There's this website called http://www.epinions.com, where you leave your opinions, good or bad, about anything under the sun. Another site would be [url]http://www.ripoffreport.com;[/url] and don't forget the BBB and your local consumer organization. And of course, make sure you get name and description of the offending staffer(s) and report it to the head honcho ASAP.

There is a smaller party ahead of us, and one lone middle-aged ugly guy milling around nearby.

"Yes" I answer, but so does the wart-faced buffoon standing nearby!

the six of us plus the balding ignoramus.

The tiny-brained glue-sniffer plops himself down in one of the chairs.

doesn't do anything to the monkey-faced SG

The snotty-faced heap of parrot droppings

which the barf-head studiously avoids meeting

IThe other would have been to memorize the guy's face and hunt him down over the next few days

Did he look like this?

[DisneyMom]

OMG HOBIE, I was eating my shredded chicken enchilladas when I saw that *HURL*
