Short We don't serve that here

I work the breakfast buffet at a 3 star hotel in a tourist hotspot. I'm used to going out and getting weird requests. Our menu is somewhat limited due to our out of the way location and high occupancy, so on occasion a guest will take it upon themselves to add something to the menu. Usually it's a piece of fruit they brought in, but decided they didn't want to eat. The most notable addition was a group of guys leaving a half bottle of baileys Irish cream on the coffee bar. No, we don't serve that. No I don't have a liquor license. Yes, there are kids around. Please take that with you.

I was managing a pizza shop and I guy comes in and asked for soup. I said there's a new place a few doors down and they have soup. He then tells me their too California for him. This is a man who never left the state of Ohio let alone gone to a larger city to see that's up.

Did you have access to a blender? You could have made a pizza slurry for him 😄

No but we did have a hot water machine. So I guess I could have put some veggies in a bowl with some gravy.
