Default Howard Johnson's at the Weirs.

Hope somebody remembers that place. I'm dating myself!

I was taking off my busboy station to become a waiter. The waitstaff were returning to college. I waited on a young family with 10 kids, from babies to teen agers. The children were out of control with food everywhere, the babies even 'heaved' all over the table. Customers in surrounding tables were complaining about how rude the couple was to their children. When they finally left, the table was a disaster! It took a number of us to clean the mess! No lie, the couple did not leave a tip!

Sometimes I would go to a restuarant just to 'people watch'. It can be entertaining.
