The Briar Patch

I hate humanity. In general the more I watch the way people behave the more I shake my head. Recently was in a franchise steak house, a new location. This is the McDonalds of steakhouses mind you, we are not in suits, dresses and such but sweat pants. I admit the service was shit. Scroll through my yelp you'll see it. Now as someone who has worked in chain shit shows, I don't think they really trained the staff. She was trying and failing, without knowing the full story I default to lack of training when its a brand new place. A table of two women start complaining. Not quietly like "Hey she isn't getting a decent tip" but leaning over to complain to table beside them. Loud enough all the tables around can hear. Trust me lady we know, we don't need your half drunk loud mouth opinions on it! I went from being annoyed with the service to feeling bad they have to deal with PinoT Grigio mom.

I can still taste the bitter defeat from yesterday. When a very under preforming USA defeat Canada in the gold medal mens hockey game. No sports is never about who deserves it, in this case its about who gets the most goals and the states did but they did not deserve it!! 4 nations USA was scary, they played well. Olympics except for maybe 3 minutes in the first period they did not look like a pro team. They looked like beer leaguers against an NHL squad. However in a single game Hellebuyck should have won tournament MVP. 41 saves and .976 save %. Any other day and Canada wins that 4 or  5-1 for sure. Stopping breakaways by McDavid and Cellebrini. That save on Devon Toews is iconic and his stick stopping that will go down as an all time great hockey pic. Also Mackinnon forgetting his is one of the worlds elite players and shooting on an open net like I do is going to haunt him for a long time!! Not going to blame them but the reffing was awful. I guess counting too many men is hard...
