If you work in customer service, then you know that, for the most part, you have to go with the customer always being right – even when they’re not technically right.

This is a manager who values his staff and doesn’t have trouble setting fair boundaries when it comes to what guests can and cannot do in his restaurant.
Well done, sir.
