Waiter Plotted Revenge on Complaining Family
Quote:
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - What happens when a waiter gets one complaint too many?
Police in Corona, California, say a waiter at a Sizzler restaurant there went to the home of a family who complained about his service and cooked up a special order on their lawn -- eggs, flour, maple syrup and toilet paper.

Jonathan Voeltner, 20, was arrested on Saturday, suspected of vandalism and contributing to the delinquency of minors -- his 17-year-old girlfriend and two younger brothers -- who helped him deliver the midnight snack, police said.

All four were released pending a July 24 court appearance. Sizzler has fired Voeltner, a corporate spokeswoman said.

Voeltner apparently became incensed on Friday evening when Darlene Keller complained to a manager that he refused to swap the potatoes that came with her meal for vegetables.

Keller subsequently got the cauliflower and broccoli she requested, while Voeltner laid plans for a special recipe of his own, said Corona police Sgt. Jerry Rodriguez.

"He had his girlfriend, a minor, follow the family home when they left the restaurant to get their address," Rodriguez said. "When he got off work she picked him up with his 17- and 10-year-old brothers."

The foursome went to a nearby grocery store and picked up the ingredients for their revenge recipe, Rodriguez said.

After throwing eggs against the house, festooning the trees with toilet paper and sprinkling the lawn with flour and maple syrup, they rang the doorbell several times at about 1 a.m. and waited to see Keller's reaction, Rodriguez said.

Upon seeing the mess, Keller called police, who arrived a short time later and arrested the girlfriend and younger boys. "The server came out of the bushes and (Keller) recognized him," Rodriguez said. "She said, 'That's my waiter!'"

Sizzler spokeswoman Susan Hernandez said the chain "deeply regrets" the incident and has offered the Kellers a free meal and a landscaper to repair any damage to their home.

, Bloody complaining customers... they get whats coming to them!

That sounds like something I would.. I was almost arrested for vandalism before because I was nearly caught redhanded.. I don't think I ever told anybody that..

We've got a Boddingtons and a Worthingtons...what next? A John Smiths and a Tetleys?

I'd have shot the waiter if I'd have seen him...I bet he didn't get a tip

I thought Sizzler went under?

And aren't they a self-serve buffet place?

"Yes, that item on our menu is delicious. Fine, sifted flour mixed with a special brand of maple syrup and served over grass, with a side of toilet paper in a tree and eggs, scrambled."

There's already a tetley's. They post in the GalCiv forums if not here.

If you've ever worked in a restaurant before you'd totally revere this guy. When I delivered pizzas I used to never carry coin on me. I used to have people demand full change. We're talking eleven cents. So then I get the sh*tty "Hope you enjoy your tip!" comment and I just smiled because there's always a way to enjoy that tip...

Thus, you need to carry 11 cents on you at all times.

This reminds of the "Toilet Paper" episode of South Park.

A sad act done by that waiter, indicative of a lack of maturity.

The major problem was that he got caught. Stupid.

You are thinking of Golden Corral.

ACK!

There's both a Golden Corral and a Sizzler in my hometown of Missoula. And both have good buffets.

No, he'd only be a criminal if he was caught. He's been blamed but nothing's been proven yet.

Wonder if the waiter got a tip.
Reminds me of an episode of "the Beverly Hillbillies". Jed finished eating and was told a tip was customary. Not knowing any better he waved the waiter close and whispered "Plant your corn early this year".
