TAB, what restaraunt?  I am up in Wilsonville and that area quite often (used to be everyday but I am working 5 minutes from the house  8) ).  My wife just inherited 24 acres out in McMinvile when her dad passed a few months ago and I'm up there 2-4 times a month.

I love it when Blue collar guys move up the social strata but never forget where they came from.  Only in America  :)

You have your restitution for this issue.  Good!

I just hope that this guy who's now unemployed is enough for you.  He may have been a good manager who made an error in judgement!

I worked in the restaurant and bar business off and on for a decade!  They're as "blue collar" as anyone else and nearly ALL managers come up through the ranks.

Restaurant workers have to deal with a lot of assholes!  More so than any other business I'd expect from my experience.

I too have rolled a grand in Benjamin's out to pay for a meal with my coworkers when I was younger than you are!  Pissing away cash was an art form!  The bar business was very, very lucrative!  I knew waiters in the early eighties making 100k annually.

Enjoy your win...but think about how it affects the other guy next time. 

Showing off your cash is amateurish...

If you are in the service industry, you can not afford people like him.  Had the owner not taken steps, this could easily cost him 100k

I would suggest that if you ever have a problem with a meal in a restaurant that you NOT send it back to the kitchen...ya never know!

Oh!  And I'd skip the free meal at that place!

You just got the boss fired and he probably has friends...

17 guys with wives/ gf. Thats 34 people you lose, then they  tell thierfriends plus family.  Don't even get me started on yelp and Facebook.  100k is on the low side of things these days.  All because one guy said " this place is too good for you,"  while not exactly whatt was said, I can assure you thats how it was taken.

It's just money, kid...

I've made plenty and I'll make more..

Pissing off a waitstaff ensures a snot rocket in your soup!

Just saying...

Bon appetite

Pissing off customers insures a pink slip


Oh and by the way spiting in some ones food is a felony in this state.  This guy pulled a bonee head move and paid for it.

Reputation in the service industry is everything.
