A Problem with a Restaurant Check

I waved my hand To get the waiter’s attention.

Waiter: Yes?

Leslie: The Check, please.

Waiter: Would you like any Dessert, or some tea or coffee?

Leslie: No, just the check. Thanks.

Waiter: Here you are. I’ll Ring that up for you when you’re ready.

Leslie: Thank you. Oh, there seems to be a Mistake on our bill. We didn’t order this Appetizer.

Waiter: Let me check this and I’ll be right back…Here you are. I’ve Adjusted the check. I Took off the appetizer.

Leslie: Thanks, but there still seems to be a problem. We had a Two-for-one coupon, but We’ve been charged for both meals.

Waiter: I’m sorry, but you needed to present the coupon to me when you Placed your order, not when you’ve finished your meal.

Leslie: That isn’t Stated on the coupon. I don’t want To be a pain, but could I see the manager, please?

Waiter: I’ll see if she’s available…I talked to the manager and she said To make an exception in this case and to give you the discount.

Leslie: Okay, thanks.
