One day I and my 40 days nightstand guy (for the next we call him 4dig) had lunch in Papadam Cilandak Town Square (i think now its not there anymore). When I was away to wash my hand after finish eating, i heard the waitress (man) said to 4dig that he's lucky to have a pretty and sweet wive like me. I knew he just being nice to have more tip (even somehow he's true ), but we were happy to hear that and yes, 4dig gave him more tip. Everybody happy...and it happened in some places as well.

But another day we and one of 4dig's colleague went for dinner in Outback Steak Resto Ratu Plaza. It was first visit for us In this resto. The girl who responsible to our table was nice, very smiley, helpful...until she said to 4dig that he's sexy with her shiny eyes.

We were kinda shock to hear that (even Im sure 4dig was happy to hear the untrue fact \:\/ ) cos the girl so impolite to say such thing in front me which was obviously his date. 4dig's colleague even felt little bit angry and annoyed with this wrong compliment from the waitress. So this time, no tip at all.

So girls, be careful with your boyfriend, husband or one night stand guy in Outback...no matter he's handsome, sexy or not hehe...

talking about inappropriate manner from a waitress, that just reminds me when i have lunch with my bf in the only restaurant with 'sport' theme in the middle of dodgy area. The waitress can get too much friendly to 'bule costumer' i even have one friend of mine who get cheated by her husband with one of the 'ho' there. well what can i say, some waitress not only looking for a tip sometimes they looking for a ***k..

The question is, "if you like to call a white-skinned foreigner a 'bule', what do you call an Indonesian"?

I think the play on words here is unnecessary. Most of us fully understood what Emma meant I think.

sorry to bring things back on topic but I have eaten at outback once and the service was so bad I didn't leave a tip either. In fact the service was so bad that I made them take off the standard service charge they add to all their bills.

The staff here are terrible, the management a joke ... this is a place to avoid. There are far better and cheaper places to grab yourself a steak.

PS. WD -- tips are for good service. if somebody doesn't get it right then why should you tip them? I would have no problem in stiffing somebody on the tip and even less of a problem telling them exactly why I am not leaving a tip

As for sportsman -- it's unusual to get that sort of problem there and was probably just a waitress being friendly ... especially if your boyfriend had been in there a few times.

poor you, u are so upset with the word. As indonesian, i don't use the word 'bule' to offend anybody or sounded negative, as a matter a fact its use by everyone to identify western people. i suppose here i can say it because people here know what i'm talkin about, unlike you. So don't pick a beef, racist is far from my thought...

friendly waitress is what people need from costumer service in hospitality, i said 'too much' can cause bad situation like i-beth said. i didn't say i'm the one have the problem there, but i can see the potential of it.I mean really short miniskirt similar with hooters, and what i know about my friend's marriage. I mean how can it happen if they limited the establishment with this 'too friendly' thing....

"Everyone?" Really? Do you think President SBY uses it when he travels overseas looking for new, foreign investment money?

Then be careful of what you say.

And the answer to my original question is: "Orang Dekil". But I won't use those words if you don't use yours.

That's fine. Same with me. Now how about we prove it by both of us using different words?

Ya ampun, Missy, why didn't tell me?? Why didn't you say earlier that you were the woman who owns this JakChat forum? I certainly would not have spoken my truth to you if I knew you were the person who could order people to leave just like that! Kamu Orang Gede di Dah, benarkan?

 Originally Posted By: emmajkt

Yeah . . . with a mouth like yours, you're probably right. But, of course, now I know YOU! >grin<

The problem is I don't know what button to punch to leave here. So I guess I'll just have to stick around and "mentekan tombol" until I find the correct one >grin<. Have a nice night, Madame Gede di Dah. :-)

my question will be.... What the hell is wrong with you Mr. Fling Brain Swing... Jesus Christ, what you say is irrelevant, why you have to pick on me a bout this 'bule' thing? why you feel offended so much, nothing wrong to be a bule and to be white!! most indonesian think is good tobe bule.... you cynical, boring, stupid asshole

My suggestion is you should learn more about the culture here then you will really learn that 'bule' word is not always fuckin negative...

This must be other thing that i have said here, are you actually the 'cheater' dude, my friend's exhusband? are you the owner of the place i'm talking about above, or simply your gf or is one of the 'ho' waitress...

Ewwwwwww, i don't wanna know you, and believe me sirrrrrrrrrrrrr, You DON'T know me... and excuse me, you don't own JakChat either. End the fuckin story
