1) Dumb bride thinks it's a good idea to offer a mini bottle of wine with her & her new husband's picture on it as a wedding favor to each guest2) Even dumber sales chick tells the dumb bride, "It's OK, we can put them out for you at each place setting"
3) I tell dumb sales chick during the BEO meeting, "You can't allow outside liquor into this building let alone give it away to a guest without putting our liquor license at risk"
4) Brainless says, "What's the big deal, we've done it before"
5) I do all I can to not put my foot up her ass
6) Wedding day comes
7) We waste precious time opening up case after case of mini wine bottles and place them at the top of each setting, making sure the stupid photo of the B&G is facing forward
8) I tell my staff, "No matter what they say - do NOT open that bottle for the guest under any circumstances"
9) Of course a few people get pissed that we will not open them up
10) The bride now complains to the sales chick that we won't open the bottles
11) The bride tells a few friends to go to the restaurant and see if they will open the bottles
12) Even more stupid restaurant dingbat manager says, "Sure we can open those bottles for you - it's your wedding day"
13) Now I've got a full-fledged shit night ahead of me
I need a REAL job!

At least that's what you told *me* recently...
