       😂 So, we just went into a small restaurant that only has about eight tables. Something seemed a bit off. The host came up to us and said they had a momentary power outage, and even though the power had come back on, the Wifi didn't, which means their ordering/payment system was off line, so they couldn't seat anyone.I said, "What if I paid in cash?""We can't open the cash drawer.""What if I paid the exact amount?""We still can't place orders. We can't communicate with the kitchen."1/2

       Folks, I was *looking at the people in the kitchen* as they said this. They were 12' away, and the door was open. 😐 The wait staff didn't know how to take an order on a paper check and give it to the kitchen. There was no manager on site that could tell them to just run a cash business for the evening. The place ground to a halt without Wifi.By this point, there were three parties they were turning away. They essentially closed for the night.We are doomed. 😩 2/2

       @ColesStreetPothole That's crazy. Hopefully it's a learning experience for them. Without knowing them though, I'm not optimistic.

       @lxskllr I don't think there was a manager on site, only servers and kitchen staff. Everyone in the place looked flustered. No one took charge. Not a learning experience, then.
