We live North of San Fran.. Yesterday during the time I posted, no credit cards or phone payments could be made due an internet problem in the area we were in.
The place, we had lunch at handled it with some humor.
When I tried to pay for our lunch, we were told about the down system. We could pay with cash or check.
I paid with cash. My wife asked what would have happened if we didn’t have cash. The waiter said that they would taken our name not charged us and charged us double the next time in. (regular customers). We laughed and so did other customers when they were told the same. We have been customers there for decades.
