THE MAN AND THE WAITRESS: TWO JOURNEYS, ONE DESTINATION
What on earth is happening? Karl wanted to know why he couldn’t place his order after patiently standing in line for the past 45 minutes. However, he was met with a stern blank stare from the waitress. What could Karl have done to warrant this treatment? He thought.

Karl does not usually get this kind of treatment as he was a man who commanded respect and authority. His demands were always met at an instant, accompanied with a salute. If only the lady knew who he was, she wouldn’t treat him such. Nobody messes with Officer Karl and gets away with it. What will he do? Let’s find out.
How It All Started
It was a day-off for the hardworking Karl Baker, who has decided to enjoy it to the fullest. He planned to sleep in, eat out, stroll outdoors and maybe even go out with friends in the evening. He needed to blow off steam from the stress of working long hours.

The thought of not working the next day filled him with so much excitement that he was up late into the night. With the adrenaline running through his body, he found it difficult to close his eyes. If he knew this excitement would eventually become butchered, he would have dreamed less.
The Dog Woke Him Up
He didn’t know that he’d slept in, but he was awakened to the warm feeling of his dog licking his face and full of energy. It probably needed a walk, but its master was lying lazily on the bed. Opening his eyes, Karl realized it was midday.

He quickly jumped into the shower, had a quick shave, changed his clothes, brewed coffee, and pondered where to go for brunch. Eureka! He remembered the restaurant on the outskirts of town that his colleagues had raved about. It would be nice to give it a try.
Getting Out Of The House
Karl hopped into his cruiser and drove down to the restaurant for the perfect midday meal; he was already contemplating what type of food he should order. The restaurant was new to him, and he couldn’t wait to try the place out.

He quickly found a parking space, turned off the engine, and went inside. Karl was a tall and muscular man, full of energy and not bad looking, to boot. All these qualities couldn’t save him from what was about to go down.
That Odd Feeling Of Being Out Of Place
Striding gallantly into the restaurant, he was impressed by the interior design of the place. However, what he couldn’t understand was the cold stare the staff sent him as he entered the diner. It seemed like a plague had just walked in the door.

Karl felt he wasn’t welcome there. He wasn’t used to receiving such a strange looks. In his job as a police officer, he commanded respect from people. As a chief of police, he was practiced in gaining and reciprocating respect.
A Conversation To Ease The Tension
He quietly stood in line behind a big guy; he would have to wait a while as it can take ages for the staff to attend to everyone at a diner. Soon it would be his turn. Hungry, he patiently waited, checking the menu on the wall to see if they had what he wanted to eat.

Fifteen minutes had gone by and he was still in line. So, he tried to strike up a conversation with the guy before him; “Hey, what a beautiful thing they got going on here,” the guy seemed uninterested in communicating as he just gave a shrug and looked frontward. It seems like patience isn’t everyone’s virtue.
