A meаn оld mаn аte a large meal at a restaurant. The waitress tried tо prоvide him with excellent service, but every time she brought him a dish, he complained. First, he thought that the soup was too cold when it was hot. Then he said that his steak was dry and chewy, when it was moist and succulent. Then he complained that one of her blonde hairs was in his mashed potatoes, but the hair was actually grey like his own. The waitress remained patient and continued to try to help him until the end of the meal, when he left her a nickel for a tip. She replied on his way out, “Thank you for the generous tip, Mister.” What is ironic about this scenario?
