From  RisenRain I Don't Work Here Lady:

So I have a hobby-like job working for a casino party company. They get contracted by companies to come out and set up some casino tables so their employees can “fake” gamble just for fun, during their parties/events. Most of the time employees buy tickets (like 1 ticket for $50 and a ticket is worth $2000 in fake chips) and that’s how they play. You can then turn in your chips for “Prize tickets” and go through a raffle to win prizes at the end. It’s a lot of fun, and easy money for someone in college, like yours truly.

We had a gig last night at a nice hotel ballroom, for a really good company too, I won’t list the name. We’re required to dress in all black, with a button up shirt and slacks. We look just like the actual staff of the hotel, but with a name tag with our “‘Owner’s’ Casino Parties” text on it. So I can sort of see why I’d be mistaken for the hotel staff.

Cue in a really good night, having fun, good people, good table dealing. I swap out with someone to freely take a break, and walk about and grab a drink of water. Now here’s where it goes completely downhill. A what looks to be a 30 year old woman comes to me and asks for a refill on her drink. It goes a little bit like this we’ll call her Thick Skull, or TS for short.

TS: Excuse me, could I ask you to refill “drink”. I’ll be right here.

Me: Sorry! I don’t work here, I’m one of the dealers at the tables. I can grab someone for you though!

TS: You’re clearly in the waitstaff uniform, i KNOW you work here, I’ve seen you help others. (Lied to my face, I was at my table all night!)

Me: I’m sorry but I really can’t serve you, let me grab someone who can-

TS: You do work here!! (SHE STEPPED ON MY FOOT AS I STEPPED AWAY! I then took my foot back and now I was a little pissed, because I’m wearing some nice shoes here, that I paid for, and I am proud of that because I’m POOR AS SHIT.)

Me: Okay look, I’ve told you I don’t work here. You can find someone ELSE. Hopefully you won’t step on them.

She now grabs the attention of an actual waitstaff member and asks her to grab the manager and she hesitantly does, and I was actually stunned.

Me: You do understand I DONT WORK HERE.

TS: Keep saying that to me, you’ll regret it.

Here the Manager came-

Manager: Everything okay ma’am?

TS: This man refuses to serve me the drinks I asked for.

He looks at me and asked my name, and I pointed at my name tag and told him, and he immediately knew I didn’t work here.

Manager: I’m sorry but he doesn’t work here, can I get your drink?

She FREAKS OUT at this. Like full blown SCREECHES.

TS: This is stupid! I’m not an idiot! She proceeds to GRAB my water and flings it at me and it gets all over me!!

Manager: Ma’am We do NOT act like this here and I’m asking you to leave. Leave.

She starts throwing what I can only say is a tantrum, and then gets escorted out by the security they had on site.

The table she was at had 10 of her tickets. TEN. She also had redeemed some earlier too. That’s over $500 she spent. With no prizes. She waited until after the party was over to speak to MY manager (So about 2 hours, when we were breaking down the set up) and demanded a refund. He denied her and said she can go on her merry way, and told her the exact reason she couldn’t was because she dumped water on his employee and he won’t stand for that. She stormed out after bickering for what seemed forever.

TL;dr: Woman poured water on me in frustration that I didn’t work here and was lying to her, gets kicked out with no refund of $500+.
