Don't get it. Was with a large party and we were all pissed about slow service, so I started going to the bar and paying cash.

Cashed out with 2 beers on my 'tab' she had, but she insisted I never gave her my card. Don't know how the credit was ran though...anyway manager was uncooperative. So I called my bank and cancelled at the table. He insisted I should just wait until 4pm tomorrow.

I am glad it was cancelled...my tab was 9.00, signed a $5 tip. 10.38 was processed.

I think she gave my card to someone else.

either he gave her the card or he didnt.

if he gave her the card and she claims she did not get it then no he did not blow it out of proportion. if he did not give her the card then he is a fricken idiot.


i am willing to believe either.

it's possible that he thought he did give her the card in the book, but it fell out and someone else picked it up.... it's possible that he THOUGHT she gave him the card and dropped it or something.... it's possible that he gave her the card and she swiped it and she lost it or dropped it somewhere...

i just really doubt a waitress is going to steal YOUR card and not anyone else's. if she's going to be such a clepto to steal a customer's card, the chances are that she's done it before. if she's done it before, she would have been fired. if she's done it before at another restaurant, she probably wouldn't be working at THIS restaurant.

You did exactly what I would have done. Whether or not she did it on purpose or not, you have to cover your ass.

true, but i think he overreacted with the waitress and by making the thread in the tone he did. no one knows whether or not she actually STOLE the card. either way, as soon as you lose your card, you call in and cancel it.
