Well, there is no way to add cream to this coffee—Miss. Carleton has tossed the Pearl into an inky Black Tide beyond the waves of the Gulf of Mexico. Thankfully, the waves have only broken slightly here in the States. No doubt, thanks to the hard work of our Ice Water Distributor up in Ottawa. Still, even just a splash from the Black Tide tends to bring in a great deal of trouble and more Misses than anyone wants to deal with on a good day. From what we’ve been able to see, Miss. Carleton managed to invite three very special guests, Miss. Tsj, Miss. Jut and Miss. Zeh.
So, let’s talk about the three customers: Miss. Carleton has brought along. First, and most abundantly, there is Miss. Tsj. She is a massive customer and a common enough sight. She loves to eat and be full, her favorite food? Round Table pizza, all things considered. And she brings with her a large family of five or ten. By far, her most unique talent is her insistence on splitting the bill before dining and dashing. Every few years, she seems to pop in for a quick chat and drink with the Lighthouse, but this may be the first time she’s brought her family along.
Then there is Miss. Jut. She is quite possibly the most dangerous of the bunch. She’s… hard to describe. A senior. French or German or maybe 1/2 this or 7/9ths that. But not exactly. More… squirmy. Although she’s hot. Very hot. As far as I know, we’ve never served her directly, but she is pretty well-known in food service. She likes a very stiff drink, something very acidic. Hope that solvents your questions about her.
Finally, Miss. Zeh. You shouldn’t guess a lady’s age… but she’s old. Senior old. She is also a return customer. Although not of this Cafe, but the old Palm Beach location. She likes her coffee dark and black. I am not a fan of monkey business, but it is also all business with Zeh. She likes a good bowl of broth so long as it’s prebiotic. Long story, Manager No. 5 tells it better than I do. Zeh and Pendragon would get along if they didn’t keep running out of time.
Whew, that was a lot of customer talk. I think I’ll leave the specifics to others to cover. We will likely need to divide and conquer to provide the best service possible for these old ladies. Worse, we might need to call our lovely Owner in for this one. Better safe than sorry, I suppose.
