Preferential Treatment


Spoony Bard

598 views

The other night, the owner of a club that I frequent a few times a week bought me a drink. He did it because I am a great customer.

 

Last night when I was at the door, he just waved me in. I was not carded. I didn't pay. I wasn't even stamped. Out of respect I bought him his signature drink.

 

So why am I telling you this? Well if you ever want to make good connections in this kind of area, you need to be a great customer. Whether it be a restaurant, a bar, a lounge, club, whatever, always tip decent. Go the extra mile. Be buddies with the staff if you get the chance. I know everyone where I go by name. Doing this will eventually make you special.

Though I dislike preferential treatment, I do have to agree with Omi here.

Hey when you pay your dues, you will get your due paid.

I fully believe in preferential treatment. Works both ways, too. As I've always said, 'You can keep off my land and I'll keep off yours, but the minute you hurt one of my people you're gonna get what's coming to you.'.

 

And, that's preferential treatment, as simple as it can get.

Um...what happened to that "I'm not drinking again" thing? (Granted, you didn't say what you drank was alcoholic.)

 

Just watching out for ya, man.

 

 

Anyway, cool bean. Definitely good to know a few people here and there.

It is complicated to explain. Send me a PM if you wish to inquire.

We go to this Asian fusion restaurant around where we are and have gotten to know the staff well. It's pretty funny, because we're known as "The Diet Coke Family". :P
