Police: SC Waffle House Waitress Shoots Customer After Complaint
Posted: 6:26 am EDT May 13, 2009Updated: 9:03 am EDT May 13, 2009 *MANNING, S.C. -- *A waitress at a South Carolina Waffle House has been arrested and accused of shooting a customer who complained about the service. The Clarendon County Sheriff's Office says 29-year-old Yakeisha Ward of Manning is charged with assault and battery within intent to kill. Deputies say Ward worked at a Waffle House in Manning and was involved in a fight about 4:30 a.m. Sunday. Lt. Tommy Burgess says the fight started when customer Crystal Samuel complained about the quality of service in the crowded restaurant."I thought I was gonna get me an All-Star," Samuel told WLTX-TV. "Grits, sausage, toast, eggs and a waffle." Samuel said service was slow and when the food finally arrived she began arguing with Ward. Samuel admits throwing a waffle at the waitress. "I did actually throw some food but it didn't hit her," said Samuel. "That's when she (Ward) jumped across the counter and we got into it," says Samuel. Burgess says Ward went to her van to get a gun. Samuel was hit in the arm when Ward fired as those trying to break up the fight pointed the gun to the ground and a bullet ricocheted. - - - We love Waffle House...but only get to one a couple of times a year. We're going to practice ducking. |

Just like his stupid lover Don, Harry is so damned dumb that he thinks because something happened in ONE Waffle House out of more than 1,500 that it happens in all of them!!!! What a moron. Let's see, that would mean that because the KKK is headquartered in Maryland, that Harry is a member..... |

Police: SC Waffle House Waitress Shoots Customer After Complaint Good thing she had a gun handy. If she's got a clean record and no history of mental illness, there'd be no way to predict what may cause her to try to kill a customer. Don't recall anyone convincing a judge of justified intent to kill for complaining about poor service at a diner. If everyone in the diner had cwp, she wouldn't have dared draw her weapon. She'd have been gunned down in a hail of bullets. |

I complained to a Waffle House waitress about my wife being served a chicken fillet that was totally raw in the middle. That's bad, bad. Waitress didn't shoot me, and she didn't offer to comp the garbage either. Haven't entered a Waffle House since. Not that I wouldn't. Just not with my wife. And she's always travels with me, which is the only time I see a Waffle House. Around here it's IHOP or Denny's for eggs. Don't ask me why my wife just had to have chicken at a Waffle House. It's a mystery, but that's how she is. Same with Burger King. Chicken sandwich. Me, if I go into a Waffle House, IHOP or Denny's, it's eggs. At Burger King I get a burger. If I want chicken, I go to Popeyes Chicken. I thought it's supposed to work that way. Guess not. --Vic |

The Chinese joints I go to don't serve hamburgers, at least I never saw them on the menu. But I learned something when eating out with a friend who had been a restaurateur - and he had been the maitre de at La Francais, an internationally know restaurant nearby. You can get almost anything you want in a good restaurant without even looking at the menu. Of course he knew the owners, what the kitchen was capable of, best sides for the dish in the traditions or the originating country, etc. You could call him an epicure, if that's the word. These were all local "specialty" places, mostly Italian. But let's say you tend that way, and like to eat just so. For example you like blacks olives with such and such. Not on the menu, but if you ask you should be accommodated. One of my favorite movie scenes was Jack Nicholson getting his toast by putting multiple holds on the menu BLT. Five Easy Pieces, I think. You don't have to do contortions like that to get what you want in a good restaurant. Having said that, I never do it, and go with the menu. I believe in ordering the food they specialize in. Me too. --Vic |

It was at the time one of the great papers in the country. No more...bought out by the conglomerators. |

That was many years ago, before Carter inflated the dollar at 14% a year, and other presidents and Congresses inflated it more. While working nights going to university in the 1960's, there were places in San Francisco where you could get a complete pork chop dinner with soup and salad and dessert for $1.75 (Ellis and Taylor if I remember correctly). Open 24 hours. |

We had a "dining room" at the paper, but it was populated with hot meal vending machines. Pure ptomaine. Lots of great stories about The Star. It was at the time one of the great papers in the country. No more...bought out by the conglomerators. Maybe if the newspaper people had worked better and not been drunks, then the paper could have survived under the former ownership. Maybe if you knew what you were talking about, *ever* , you might fool some into thinking you knew what you were talking about. You see, Bilious Bill, before selling the paper off to the first conglomerate, the paper was owned in its entirety by its newsroom employees, who ran such a good paper that they all made out like bandits. Some years after the sale, the first conglomerate sold the paper off to another, and it began to slide...badly, for a number of reasons. So, you see, Bilious, the newspaper people did very well, and could have survived, but the employees saw a way to make a killing and, sadly for the newspaper, they went for it. This was a long time ago, by the way. |

He generally drops his gun. I used to live in a part of the county where all of the cops live. Some idiot from another state stopped by one of our local banks and made an illegal withdrawal. Within about 5 minutes there were 50 county cops on the road in marked cars, lights blazing, chasing the idiot. They caught the guy. You don't have to be smart to be a criminal. |

Not on the menu, but if you ask you should be accommodated. One of my favorite movie scenes was Jack Nicholson getting his toast by putting multiple holds on the menu BLT. Five Easy Pieces, I think. You don't have to do contortions like that to get what you want in a good restaurant. Having said that, I never do it, and go with the menu. I believe in ordering the food they specialize in. Me too. --Vic Indeed. Many, many years ago, Stepfatherinlaw #1, a nice fellow, came to visit shortly after we moved to the DC area from New York. He was a lifelong midwesterner. We went out to Annapolis for a nice day trip, and I took everyone to a pretty nice seafood restaurant there. He ordered meatloaf and his youngest daughter, who accompanied him on the trip, ordered a roast beef sandwich. With mashed potato(e)s. Grrrrrrr. They can't help themselves. My partner grew up in the midwest. We met in Los Angeles. For the first year he was on the west coast, every course of the meal featured meat. He's long been rehabilitated but it took years. Now I get it. -dk All you get is ****. "Partner" is used in the traditional sense as in business partner. As usual, go **** yourself. Is that what I implied, dip****? You implied it elsewhere, dickhead. Right. Last week at the airport. Sorry, I remember now. You're now officially a liar. Do I need to quote you? You're just as vile as the dickheads in this group who insisted we were in Iraq for all the right reasons while accusing me of being a traitor, unamerican, guilty of sedition, comfort to the enemy, etc. None of them is man enough to admit they were dead wrong. Just like you. If that was true you would have quoted it. Carry on... |
