Out to dinner with couples or a group of friends or work colleagues- The bill is not expensed.
Found myself in the latter this evening- Being a light drinker, I had one drink, as did my so. One of the couples, between the two of them, had 8 or 9. Check comes, alcohol tab is appx 125 ( just for them)
The last thing I consider myself is cheap, but I was quite offended when they did not offer to pick up their fair share of the tab -They just contributed their 1/3
( three couples) towards the bill.
Would certainly not go out with them again ( lesson learned), but wondering if one should have said something—
The extra 40 I had to pay is meaningless in the grand scheme of things…. ( let’s look at some of the amp places and prices paid.. ) but I thought their lack of consideration was extremely selfish…
( If I’m ordering the most expensive item on the menu, I’ll always offer to throw in a few extra $ towards the tab)
