So last night I went up to good Old Chicago to enjoy 99 cent beers for a couple of hours. My buddy Dave and his girlfriend was up there sitting at a rather large table with another couple. I did not know the other couple and after about an hour of sitting at the same table with them they finally said hello. So we have quite a few drinks and being that it is ladies night the girls are drinking free. The bill comes and there is 28 drinks on the ladies, all free. My bill for 10 beers was only 6 and change because he was a cool ass waiter. Heres the problem...
As we are cashing out the younger guy at our table notices a 20 spot sitting not on the table but the divider with a waiters pen on it. The waiter had walked by it about 10 times and had not noticed that he(im guessing) left it there. The guy at our table mentions that he is going to take it. I tell him no and explain how I dont like people who steal or lie. Go out for a smoke and when I come back in he is holding the pen and paying his tab with a 20 that was pulled directly from his pocket, not from the wallet. I said nothing and just ignored it. Heres the question...
Do you think I should have confronted him even though I had no proof and didn't know the guy?
What would you have done in the situation?
Anything similar?
