No Brthday Curtosy.

"Do  you do anything for birthdaaaays??"
If you are a server, you have been asked far too many times if your restaurant does anything special for birthdays.  I am always amazed at how many people assume they get free shit because they turned a year older.  People are always pissed at you if you tell them your restaurant doesn't give away free dessert or shots for birthdays.  It's most annoying when a friend of someone whose birthday it is asks you for somethign free for their friend and gets pissed when you tell them no.  I'm sorry, I don't know your friend Sally, why don't you buy your friend Sally a fucking shot?  Would you go to the grocery store and ask for a free cake because it's your birthday??  No, no you wouldn't.  Everyone just assumes that when they walk into a bar or restaurant and it's their birthday or their friend's birthday that they get something for free, which is exactly what this lovely person thought.  As you might notice there is some writing scribbled out near the amount.  The person who wrote this explanation for her lack of tipping attempted to write "no birthday courtesy"  Even on her second attempt to spell it correctly, she still got it wrong.  Trying to hide the fact that she misspelled her statement, she scribbles out her mistake and draws an arrow to what she thinks is correct.  And people wonder why servers are so jaded and cynical.....
