What's your automatic, "I'm not eatling at this restaurant, I'm Leaving!" scenario?

Hey, it's Mike Waters from the Waters Wake Up Call.

Oh, what a Wanda Wednesday morning did we have?

We discussed.

What's an automatic?

I'm not eating here.

We need to leave.

I'm walking out.

What is that for you?

This is Mr. Wanda Waters?

This is Mr. Wanda Waters.

Who's this?

This is me calling you.

Oh, OK.

Well, at least that mystery's been solved.

There you go.

Yeah, I don't know.

So what's up, man?

What are you doing?

One time, I walked out of a restaurant.

We were sitting there eating.

And all of a sudden, the cockroach fell down in our guacamole.

At least it fell in the guacamole.

You know, I wasn't going to eat that anyway.

So did you ever verify or clarify that particular species?

Because I believe they call that the guacroach.

Oh, really?

I'm glad you clarified.

Well, I like to clarify random things, even random things that have nothing to do with the random topic you called about.

Right.

Yes.

That's what Wandom Water does on Wandom Wednesday.

There you go.

You ding dong you.

Good morning, it's Sandy.

Hello, Sandy.

I'll tell you the worst thing we happened.

Yeah.

Went to a popular seafood restaurant and there was two of us and we had over $150, $200 worth of food on there.

Yeah.

And my husband went to eat and a roach popped down from the ceiling onto his face.

Good lord!

You don't get that from the sea?

Yeah.

We literally called the waitress, donated to her.

Well,

that's the least you should have

done.

Well, yeah, it's like, oh,

good.

I get to come back to the place where there's roaches.

I'm leaving now because of a roach.

How do I know that's going to be gone by the time we, and who knows how many roaches they had for God's sake?

Good.

I was living in Kansas, we went in and sat down and they come in with a cockroach spray and asked us to raise our feet so they could spray under the table.

You know, that's the third cockroach story I got today.

Of course you didn't see one, but still, to have them spraying for cockroaches at your table.

It during the day while people

are eating.

Yeah, you gotta think some of that spray is gonna get up in your face too.

That would just turn me off and I would have no appetite and you were right.

to leave.

Yeah, I

think so.

Yeah.

Good morning, Mike.

Good morning.

How are you?

Good.

I just wanted to talk about walking out of a restaurant.

Yeah, what

happened?

Well, no, my husband and I, we've only done that one time since Peter Appas said it was kind of a trendy restaurant and it was busy.

But yeah, we sat for like 20 minutes and nobody even came to the table.

So we're like, okay, I think we're just gonna get up and walk out.

If nobody comes by and even

says, I'm sorry, we're very busy.

It'll be a couple of minutes, but I will be back as soon as I can.

Something like that even helps.

Yeah, that didn't happen.

So we're kind of disappointed because it was our first time there.

But

yeah,

we never returned.

So

why would

you?

Yeah.

Of course, it's going to be busy and you're going to have a little extra patience with them if it's busy because they can only do so much.

But yeah, if they don't even acknowledge that you're there, you feel invisible and say,

Screw it.

We'll go over to the Perkins.

That's right.

Yeah.

That's right.

Yeah.

All right.

Well, you have a great day, Mike.

Hi, Mike.

It's Karen.

How are you, Karen?

I

am very well.

How are you?

I'm good.

I should start calling you Karen.

That's what I should do.

Because people just think I'm saying your name twice.

OK.

That's right.

I

appreciate that.

Hey, of course.

What's up with you, Karen?

What do you need?

What can I do for

you?

Why would I leave a restaurant?

Yes, why would you?

I

would leave a restaurant if my child is acting up.

I would not want to put other patrons to listening to my child act terrible.

People love listening to other children scream and cry and misbehave.

Why would you do that to the other customers?

If you're paying for a meal, you should get a good meal without any interruptions.

No, that's great because some parents, I'll tell you,

They'll let their kid just go into- You know, if it's a baby crying, I guess I understand that.

Not at a really nice place, though.

Leave your kids at home with a sitter.

Same with, uh, like an R-rated movie.

Yes.

Yes.

Oh.

I appreciate you.

I love listening to you.

Well, thank you, Karen.

You make my day.

Well, thank you.

You make my day.

Thank you.

You make my day when you call, Karen, Karen.

And I wish more parents were like you.

Thank you.

All

right.

Bye-bye.

My favorite part of Wanda Wednesday is I never know what's gonna happen, and I'm glad this call happened.

Hey, I'd like to speak with Mike.

Uh, let me see if he's around.

Oh, you know what?

I just looked at my driver's license.

That's me.

I

wanted to tell you, my pops listens to your show every morning.

Your pops does?

Yes, and his name is Wade Morgan.

Could you mention him this morning?

Of

course, Wade Morgan.

Yeah, and he loves your show.

Uh...

Well, thank Wade for me.

How about you?

Listen, are you just calling in for dad?

Oh,

good.

What's your name?

My name's Marie.

Wade and Marie, father and daughter.

Yeah.

Well, that's awesome.

Well, thank you for letting me know that, Marie.

I appreciate it.

I have a good

day.

Thanks.

You too.

Merry Christmas.

Oh, Merry Christmas to you as well.

That's awesome.
