    Maybe he just wants to be friends with them all! Most straight guys don’t have enough genuine friends who are women.

    Or

    Better to hang out as a group first, get to know each other in a different context, and maybe safer too, once fucking decisions are made.

    Or

    Maybe he doesn’t know if they each know the others gave him their numbers and wants to eliminate the drama of them finding out separately.

      I think the idea was he’d pick one when they paid, and just grab the number from that receipt

        Why the fuck would someone remember EVERY single order and associate it with a face? Also, usually people pay everthing in 1 bill when they hang out;

        This whole comment seems really out of touch lol

          Excuse me? Whether it’s one bill or multiple bills the server has to remember who had what in order to bill them. Most POS system track different people by what seat they are, but that’s up to the person punching in the orders to identify.

          These women were competing to see which one of them would get a call, so they would have written their number in a way that identifies them so presumably they wrote their numbers on their orders. I think it’s really weird to assume it was all one bill though. When I hang out with people the bills are generally divided unless someone asks for a single bill, perhaps it’s different where you are but thats very much NOT my experience that is like a grocery bill with just line items and no separators. Again thats very much NOT how POS systems generally work.

          I know a lot of people who work in kitchens and so ive heard a lot of complaints about how dumb ass servers can’t remember who anyone at their table is and have to constantly reprint bills because they keep fucking up who has what. That’s a really common complaint when my friends are talking about the quality of the other people they work with. This is from again multiple people who have worked in restaurants for years both in front of house and back of house.

          If we are talking fine dining the servers are often expected to be VERY good at remembering details about the tables they are serving. The quality at Michelin star restaurants is often even more rediculous as to how much they can tell you about the table they just served, depending on style of business. I was briefly in a little nothing band and our drummer was a server at such a place. They were absolutely brutal with the servers and sent home multiple people each service for things as stupid as their shirt was not perfectly tucked in for more than 10 minutes before getting fixed. The way he described it there were 3 or 4 extra people just waiting for someone to be sent home every service. But I’m not expecting that level of attention to detail when I said decent server. I’m actually using a fairly low bar of basic competency, but not some fast food cashier

          I also have worked with a person for the last 8 years that does mystery shopper and sometimes has to judge exactly what a server does. Associating who ate what and who ordered what is entirely expected. It’s common for one person to order for another and it surprised me to learn that that’s not even something most decent servers are expected to have any problems with. Pretty routine and he doesn’t fail people too often for it, assuming he’s not bullshiting me, which I’ll admit is a possibility with him but I don’t think that’s whats happening

          I really don’t understand what your problem is with my comment, It wasn’t meant to be argumentative.

          Extrapolating I did make some biased assumptions sure but there weren’t a lot of details in the post so I kept it pretty loose. I presumed they were all flirting with the server so that would make it more memorable for them. The fact that every one of the guests wrote their phone number at that time also would increase memorability of that particular table.

          Good servers remember faces, how the fuck is that a surprise to you?

            But they don’t have to remember the fucking faces, there is a difference between remembering the table number/seat number and the fricking face of everyone and idk about you, but i forget about people faces like the minute after i don’t have to interact to them anymore if they are strangers,

            You are some fricking weirdo

    Can’t blame a guy for taking a shot. What’s the worst that could happen? They all get disgusted and blow him off? He’s no worse off than he was.

    But then later that night, the one who is the secret super freak, excited that the guy actually proposed a 4 way, calls him for a mind-blowing booty call.

    If you’re so attractive that all four women at a table would hit on you, and you’re the kind of person who would contact them afterwards, then you’re probably used to having a lot of easy sex, anyways.

    It wouldn’t surprise me if he really just expected this would likely end in him having a multiple-partner experience, maybe even up to him with all four women.

    Edit: Holy shit. Lots of people downvoting the obvious truth. That’s a pathetic abuse of downvote, and a pathetic admission of your own deficiencies. Also, please note that I block people who abuse downvotes as a matter of course.

        True as that is, you actually have to show off that humor to get numbers. This guy just did what he regularly does at his job. I actually feel bad for him because he probably deserved a better tip instead of 4 phone numbers.

        Lets also not forget that this may have been considered quite creepy if the genders were reversed and the server did nothing beyond serving to imply interest.

        I don’t block people who disagree. I block people who abuse downvotes. Downvote does not mean “disagree,” and if you use it like that, then you are abusing downvotes. Perhaps you are unaware, but comment downvotes, like all of the content data on the fediverse, are public information.

        People who disagree and express it via their comments without downvoting are fine normal humans whose comments at least have the chance of adding value to the world.

        People who downvote a simple truth because they don’t like it, or who downvote to meme, are people who add no value to the world, and so blocking them only increases the signal-to-noise ratio. I strongly encourage everybody to look up the people who downvoted that comment and block them all.

          What a fucking crybaby. There, that’s public information too.

          People who downvote a simple truth because they don’t like it, or who downvote to meme, are people who add no value to the world,

          People who complain about getting downvoted and announce that they block anyone who downvotes them and encourage others to do the same add no value to the world.

          No one fucking cares!

            add no value to the world.

            They do though. Lemmy would be much better if people wouldn’t downvote when they disagree. They are signaling that they don’t want to know about inconvenient opinions. That silences open and honest conversations.

              The general sentiment (don’t downvote just because you disagree) is correct, but the context of it is a bit different.

              The comment heavily implies (“… simple truth…”) that their statement is reasonable and correct. But in reality, their statement is whackadoo nonsense and downvoting that kind of thing is completely reasonable.

                  No, the people who frequent communities tend to upvote/downvote more. On the collective level that results in the stuff people in that community want to see drifting to the top, and the stuff they don’t want to see drifting to the bottom. That filters out a lot of bullshit and makes the user experience better.

                  It’s not like algorithms are being manipulated to promote a profit motive or political agenda, or amplify an in-group while marginalizing out-groups, the way corporate social media does.

                  It’s just an organic filtering based on what the community members as a collective do or don’t want to see.

                  If you don’t like the vibe of one community, go find a different one or start your own. Telling people to stop downvoting you is just petulant.

      and a pathetic admission of your own deficiencies

      Yeah, the reason I’m downvoting you is totally because I don’t casually pick up fivesomes without even trying, and that apparently makes me deficient somehow.

      Go ahead and block me, I don’t give a fuck.

      You’re looking for the worst possible interpretation in what’s a positive interaction and you complain about downvotes? Could you be right? Sure. Does it matter? Not really, this is some lightheartes entertainment on the Fediverse. So don’t get your knickers in a twist over some downvotes.
