THE PROVERBIAL ‘PIED PIPER’

Excerpt from an online complaint;

“While our waiter was nice, he wasn’t really with it. And I couldn’t really figure out why everyone (staff and manager) were gathering around a particular table (A guy with long hair, middle-aged and overweight) like he was the proverbial ‘Pied Piper’ or ‘cult favorite.’

Gary is a regular who comes in about 4-5 times a week and many of the servers sit and talk to him (I try not to) so they can get out of working, I assume. The amazing part about Gary is that there is nothing special about him. He’s a truck driver by trade, dresses like Homer Simpson, and is basically full of shit. Glad a customer took notice. Other then that, the only thing interesting about him is that he tips 40%.

    Too funny! Not very descriptive….they all are like that! (I owned trucks for far too long!)

  2. Hey, no offense to truckers, my uncle (RIP) trucked for years, and was very interesting to talk to, but a lot like Gary.
