DC interns exercise "Bud Light oversight authority"
"Spotted: DC Interns," a blog "dedicated to those DC residents who dread intern season."Demonstrating, once again, the immaturity of young people with Ivy League credentials and no real world experience. Four interns sit down in my section and order four Bud Lights. Me: I'm sorry, fellas, we don't have Bud Light. We have PBR on draft, though. Intern #1: (sighs) Fine, four of those. Me: No problem. I just need to see your ID's. Intern #2: You don't need to see our ID's. We work for Congressman _______ from ________. (Flashes his red badge) Me: Sorry, dude, but unless the Distinguished Gentleman from _______ is willing to use his oversight authority to make the $10,000 fine that we'd get slapped with for serving you without ID's go away, and give me a paying job when I get fired anyway, I'm still going to have to see them. Intern #1: Wow, "oversight authority." That's more knowledge than I'd expect from someone with your job. Me: And that's about as much ignorance as I'd expect from someone who agreed to lick envelopes for free. Every customer within earshot starts laughing. The interns pitch a royal fit, call my manager over, and get kicked out anyway. The best part? Not only did I get a $20 bonus from my manager for doing my job right, all of my other customers tipped me at least double. Thanks for buying me a the new iPhone, boys. Y'all come back anytime.
