First off I would like to say all my previous TE dining car experiences have been fine. Well Monday May 13 & 14th changed that on my
way from CHI to SAT. 2 younger girls I have never seen before working the diner. Hardy anyone on the train yet everyone is packed into the 6 booths at the far end.
2 people are eating halfway through their meal and then a new party is seated with them. I never saw that before.
Bread plates no where to be found for the basket of bread.
Dining receipts dropped onto our tables to fill out without any pens....who brings a pen to dinner.
Drink orders not taken first drink will come with order.. Dumber #2 comes to each table, without explaining what the specials are and says what do you want to order .
after lengthy wait drink, salad and entree all come together.
While orders are being prepared dumber #1 and dumber #2 sit in far away booth and compare facebook pictures on each others phones
Dumber #1 annouces accross dining room pa that although tips are not necessary they are customary in the us and very appreciated.
I have some of this recorded to ipad I will try and post some of it.
Dessert not even offered, only when passengers asked about it.
