stop me if you’ve heard this one before
last night, there was some romanian bday party…one of the chicks is a “friend” of the owner at the cafe bar I work at.
so this romanian guy w/ a thick accent and a tongue ring and a bad hair cut keeps asking ivona for a glass of wodka (that’s my written portrayal of the accent), on the rocks, without ice. so she tries to figure out what he means and he gets all sweetheart sweetheart sweetheart, let me explain wodkas to you.
and he comes up to the service bar and is trying to put his arm around her and he’s pissing her off so much she looks at natasha and says in their language “you deal w/ him”
and walks away cuz she’s so mad she’s shaking.
so what he wants, is a triple shot of stoli in a glass. not chilled. no ice. neat.
fine.
so later he comes up to the bar and he asks me for a wodka, on the rocks, no ice. and i hadn’t heard the whole story about this yet so i don’t know what the fuck is wrong w/ this guy so i kinda tilt my head like a dog and say sorry? and he says wodka, on the rocks, no ice. and i say, do you want it chilled? no, i want wodka, on the rocks, no ice. and i think stop saying that! so i say dude, that doesn’t make sense and he gives me sweetheart sweetheart, i want stolichnaya wodka, in a glass, on the rocks, no ice. and i think i’m gonna go fucking crazy at this point and i start laughing and i say. ok do you or do you not want ice in the glass and he says no ice. and i say ok, so here’s your lesson, on the rocks means ice in the glass. so stop saying on the rocks.
and i go and get the bottle of stoli and i pour it into the glass and after 4 counts the bottle empties and i put the glass down w/ my back to the guy and am bent over looking for another bottle and he starts in again, sweet heart sweetheart, sweetheart, that’s not enough. (this is his 4th round by the way) and i say, dude, the bottle ran out, i was getting more, why don’t you just stand there and wait for your drink. ok ok ok sweetheart. no problem.
are you fucking kidding me?
on the rocks, no ice?

That’s ridiculous, on the rocks=over ice cubes. The man’s an idiot. I overheard someone in a cafe once trying to order a black cappucino, maybe they were related! That person was telling the staff they didn’t know how to do their jobs, as well.
Romanian bday party? Where do you live?
