Alcoholic Wears Out Welcome At Wine Tasting
News Item!
An area winery owner resorted to sarcasm last
week when a visiting tourist abused the customary free wine samples by drinking
himself into inebriation.
The winery advertises an accommodating tasting schedule, it stays open until 5:30 pm instead of the usual 4 pm. While this does help the winery bring in extra customers, particularly in the evening, things can get a little unpleasant as the day's vineyard veterans make their final stops.
A disruptive drunk appeared at the winery shortly after five o'clock and approached the owner, Mr Grouchypants asking for samples of the wine for sale. Soon, the drunkard found a vintage that he liked, and requested samples of it over and over. After exhausting all the dirty looks and menacing stances available to him, Grouchypants suggested that "Perhaps someone has a very serious short term memory problem..."
The drunk soon decided to take his business drain elsewhere and left muttering an analysis of modern customer service paradigms.
