This actualy happened today at my work. I though I should share this here.
For those that don't know, I work as a dishwasher at a restrauant. The day was going rather slow and most of us were just taking our time with our work since we still had 1.5-2 hours left and things really wouldn't take that long. One of the people in the restrauant started yelling as the server,
"I want to see the cook! Show me the F**king cook!"
everybody heard that much, even me and I was in the far back of the kitchen with a loud dish machine running. The cook goes out and asks the guy what the problem is. The guy then starts yelling,
"Quit trying to drug me! I won't let you drug me! you things from neptune will never get me! I'll kill you!"
By this time the hostess is calling the cops as the man pulls out what I think was a switchblade style skinning knife and charges at the cook, who quickly turns and sprints back into the kitchen, with the man close on his heels weilding this nasty looking knife.
The two of them do two laps around the kitchen and by that time I had come to my sences and accualy realised what was going on, so I picked up the BIG Rolling pin that had just come out of the machine, and whent to help our cook, not really knowing what I would do if I caught up. but by the time I did catch up, I saw the cook grabbing the 18 inch cast iron frying pan (with another 18 inches of handle) off the gas stove, fried veggies and oil included, smack the guy in the face with it (veggie side first) knocking the guy senceless. four of us then sat on the stunned man till the cops showed up 3 min later.
It was really frighting, and I had to clean up the oil and veggies that were thrown across the kitchen, while the cook went and asked nicely for a few customers be understanding about him using their dinner as a weapon. I'm just happy to be alive and that things didn't turn out worse than they did.
