Okay, so that’s going to be a ten minute wait. Here’s a crazy pager that looks like an air hockey puck from Tron. Take that and it’ll vibrate and light up and really put a scare into you when we’re ready with your table.
The bad news? Well, the range is about 9 inches from this station. In fact, haha, the range of this pager is actually shorter than the range of, say, a voice yelling. So it’s actually easier for you to go out and smoke or whatever if I were to just yell. But I, sir, am a hostess, and I have a certain amount of dignity. This job isn’t ALL black pants and counting between the number 2 and 6. It’s also about NOT yelling.
This thing must cost about $150 bucks. That’s kind of how these things go. So I’m not going to mention this, but please for the love of god don’t just come here whenever we’re busy and walk off with one of these because we have no way whatsoever to track you and get the thing back. It would be pretty terrible, actually. In fact, how about I’ll just give you $50 in cash to hang onto, and then when your table is ready I’ll yell. That seems like the best compromise.
