The nice thing to have done would be to pick up the nugget and take it to his hole and break it in two and leave it there for him to eat.

It was a weird bonding moment, because I was sobering up quickly, but it was fun. I really want to know how he managed to get his CDL in the first place.

I still think about Billy Bob the Sizzler employee sometimes. I hope for good things in his life. "Sizzler employee" isn't really indicative of good things, though (he was probably 35 at the time with a raging coke habit, an ex-wife, and a couple kids he never gets to see. I'm not sure).

That's how I survived a night from when 3 soccer teams descended upon sizzlers.
Also, when it comes to tipping, I normally tip about how much good service I got and how nice the waiter or waitress is. They totally earned it that night.

Is this Brookside sizzler, by any chance? I know the child armies that accompany a sizzler visit very well. It's bedlam. Absolute bedlam. At least they don't touch the bread and butter pudding in winter. They don't like the sultanas.

Nah, townsville bruh. The children are actually worse. At least you don't have children trying to make off with your food while you're eating it.

There are times though, where if I was the parent, some people would see me as either being a good parent, or a bad one.

It's a thing they do for bread and butter pudding. Sultanas = raisins
