Really cheap golf balls.

We went to Olive Garden to celebrate birthday for a couple of guys at work. The service was so bad, unlike anything I have ever seen before at this restaurant. The waitress was so rude, basically telling one of the guy that he lacked common sense when she was taking orders, yes, she said that. Then she brought the food and never even offered parmesan, never came back once to even ask how we like the food. And the worst part was that we were charged 18% gratuity automatically because our party had more than 8 people. One of the girls paid with cash and the waitress just assumed that she deserved all the loose changes and only gave back the amount of change round down to the dollar. The funny part is that one of the guys wrote on his credit card receipt for them where it say TIPS: "No way. She's lucky to get the 18%." I just let it go but one of the guys also spoke to the manager. Just an unbelievable waitress!

Checked in and printed the boarding pass for my flight to DC tomorrow, 07:03 in the morning. Boarding time is 06:33, which means that I have to wake up around 05:30. It's kind of bad to have to wake up that early but the next flight into Baltimore is much later and I want to be in Rockville, MD by 16:00 and not sure how bad the traffic jam will be so I would rather get in early and give myself plenty of time to drive in from Baltimore and check into my hotel in DC first before the drive to Rockville.
