I'm not sure if I'm Professor Gates or the Cambridge Police
An awful strange thing to compare this situation to.
I have been a member of this Forum and a regular contributer on many posts since 2004. It is my opinion that you can tell the sincerety and perhaps even some personality traits about forum members through their posts. I have never lied on this forum and have made a conscience effort to examine any facts I post before I post them and to be totally honest about my opinions even if they may hurt someone's feelings. I always state my opinions in what I consider to be a respectful manner, perhaps others feel differently. I did not hatch a plan to diss The Bob House on the forum on the drive over to dinner, that's just not in my personality to be cruel like that. The owner absolutely did open up a bottle of pepper and dump it over my child's dinner plate which she was still eating. She absolutely did yell and cause a scene. She absolutly did not let me get a word in edgewise even when my daughter cried and admitted she had done this. I don't believe there were sugar packets under the plates, frankly I don't believe a word she says or will say on this forum. When I got home my motivation to call the restaurant was not to get the meal comped but to let them know that first and foremost we understood my child was in the wrong and to let them know she was given consequences for her behavior. Second I was determined to let them know the owner's actions were outrageous and severely out of line. When the manager said to me "What do you want me to do about it" the first that that came to mind was to tell him I just wanted him to know how I felt and that perhaps they could comp my child's meal. In other words my motivation wasn't to get a free meal but to let them know that kind of behavior was outrageous and as a paying customer we shouldn't have to deal with it.
Now anyone reading this post can and I'm sure will make up their minds about what they believe. I'm not going to try to sway anybody anymore. I feel this forum is about positive AND negative experiences that we have on Lake Winni and I will continue to post as honestly and with as much integrity as I can on both. My daughter made her bed when she choose to put sugar in the pepper shaker and now she has to lay in it. The owner of The Bob house made her bed when she reacted in an innapropriate, unacceptable manner in front of her whole restaurant, and she needs to lay in it too. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
