今天是星期六,小弟下班後和令外三位朋友一起吃晚餐,然後就去了GLENFIELD的Dennis.
坐下點單之後,由於無聊就拿出了三國殺大家一起玩
我們並不吵,就普通講話的音量而已,一直也都和服務員有說有笑,客客氣氣的.
玩了差不多半小時後,東西吃完了,盤子收走了,大家繼續坐著聊天,玩著三國殺
突然就有一位叫做Romeo的穿著紅色衣服的人走了過來 (大概是印度或是島民)
以下縮寫
R: HEY YOU! No cards allowed in here, u wanna play cards you get out.
他一講完我們四人都火了
我 : What? why is this not allowed? we are not gambling or anything?
R : It is NZ law that in any resturant that serves alcohol, you can't play cards in it, by doing that you would encourage other people to gamble~
我 : whatever, tell me which book and which chapter, I will look it up online now.
R : It's NZ law, you don't need to know which book or chapter, it my resturant and I make the rules.
我 : I understand as the resturant owner, you have the right to make the rules, however, you must at least stating it on the window or something as the term and condition for entry, you can't just tell customers what your rule is after they paid for the service, and expecting them to obey it, that is not how it works. It is not that we want trouble or anything but I think you have some problem with your manner.
R: I dont care, if you don't put your cards away then you can get out.
Icon : WHATS YOUR PROBLEM? I AM THE SERCURITY, TALK TO ME IF YOU WANT!
我一聽就更火了,想說不就一個Sercurity, 我也沒喝醉,也沒做錯什麼, 好像神氣的什麼樣子
我 : We do not want any trouble, its just that the manager is telling us that by NZ Law, we can not play cards here, I don't think there is such law? please tell me which book and which chapter so we can look it up now.
Icon : U WANT TO KNOW THE LAW? I CAN CALL THE POLICE AND LET THEM COME HERE AND TELL YOU ABOUT IT, HOW DOES TAT SOUND?
但我越想越不對,想說小弟我剛好好死不死在警局裡面上過一年半的班,從來沒有聽過這條法規,也沒聽過那個人因為breach 這條被抓的, 當然,可能是小弟才疏學淺, 為了確認,我立刻打給Auckland city 警局. 過了差不多五分鐘在電話上的對談之後,
這位警察說 : I have never heard of such law, not to my aware of,但為了安全起見, 他又再把我轉給了Northern Communication Centre (在這裡順道提一下,這種事情請不要打111, 因為不是緊急事件)
我又把我的故事講了一遍, 這位警方的operator說:
I have never heard of such law, the resturant operator has the right to make the rules, but I have never heard of that you can not play cards in the resturant if you are not gambling.
我 : can I please pass on the phone to the manager and you can tell him that, he wouldn't believe me
Operator : sure, I will talk to him.
於是我就請了他們的員工去請了經理出來, 然後我把電話拿給他說
我 : Its the police on the phone, they want to talk to you.
R : POLICE!! what do u call them for? we dont want no trouble. 然後臉色就一變接過了電話
他們說了什麼我也沒聽到,不過大概就是You have the right to make the rule, but don't make up laws 或是 do not threat your customer 之類的. (因為我有講他們找了sercurity來back him up, the way he talked to us was quite intimidating).
電話一掛了之後,臉和態度就整個變了, 就開始會笑然後we apologise for what we said eariler 之類的
我 : I do understand you have the right to make ur own rule and I respect it, but you do not speard the wrong information around, ok?
R : We are sorry about that and we will improve it next time.
之後我就和朋友付錢就走了
結帳時經理還can I have your card please, how would you like to pay 之類的,笑的非常燦爛.
to 陌生: 可能看起來不太好吧,但是者種態度並不是最好的解決方法而且其實我們一開始就有說我們沒賭,這個是有點像Yugio 或是 pokemon的 card game, 是這樣解釋的, 不然實在不知怎和他解釋三國殺這種遊戲
to 錢塘 : 我們是坐在進門左邊最角落的位置,我們真的沒大聲,普通講話音量,我們都很清楚在餐廳裡面大聲講話會給別人帶來不便. 同時, 到他來講我們為止,後面的兩個座位都是沒人坐的, 更遠的地方有三個人喝酒,那個才是真正的吵......最後,假如是我們吵的話, 我想至少禮貌性的和我們講個, Excuse me, please keep your noise down a little, we have complains from other customers 之類的我們都可以接受,而不是u get out if u play cards~作者: 小lee飞刀 时间: 2010-9-26 11:24:24
To Venox : 通常假如和商家有點不愉快,我是會建議先退一步,讓自己主導這個狀況,假如讓他們叫警察的話,你不知道他們會說什麼,但是據小弟的了解
只要他們說了 "I have verbally asked them to leave the premise, but they refused" 之類的, 顧客就有可能會惹上很大的麻煩,因為這就算是他們已經trespass你,但你不肯離開,這是會被逮捕的
就算他們沒這樣說,但是想到警察畢竟也是人,也有可能會先入為主,讓他們先打電話講 (主動) ,變成你到時候要解釋 (被動),可能會比較不利,在下認為,雖說惡人先告狀,但是沒錯的能先告狀最好也是先說了算...XD
To Anon : 基於隱私和名譽問題,就找了很類似的拼法, 不過想說應該很明顯了....不好意思造成你的困擾...XD作者: sereanity 时间: 2010-9-29 12:34:36
