Lucky or Cursed?

So...Rob and I have had numerous "incidents" at various restaurants and, though we end up getting something for free, I'm beginning to wonder if we're cursed or something.

Example #1
Rob and I went out to Moxie's for our anniversary supper a couple years ago. Rob found a hair in his mashed potatoes. He tells the server, who is more than apologetic, and offers to give Rob a free salad to wet his appetite while they made a new plate. We figured that was a nice gesture. Then the manager came to see us, and again, apologized profusely. The manager then told us that Rob's entire meal was on the house. Talk about good service!

Example #2
When Rob and I went to Saskatchewan this past July, we left Isaiah with my parents (who were at Grandma Wiebe's) and went on a breakfast date. We decided to go to Ricky's. First of all, I had a dirty fork. Like, not "came out of the dishwasher" dirty, but "someone has already used this fork" dirty. I asked the waitress for a new fork and she just kind of acted like that happens all the time, and went to get me a new one. I decided to just let it go, thinking it was just an honest mistake. Then Rob's order came and he found a hair wrapped into his omelete. GROSS!! He told the waitress, and she said that she would get the cook to make a new one. She took his plate to the kitchen and then (here's the kicker) came back with THE SAME PLATE. Yep. The hashbrowns that he had smothered with ketchup were still on his plate. Rob just looked at the waitress and she said "I'm making you a new one. Here's your hashbrowns back." EEW! That took the cake for me. I had to actually walk out of the restaurant because I felt like I was going to throw up. Rob talked to the manager and we left without paying for a thing.

Example #3
Last night we went to The Keg. It was completely packed in there, and we were told that it was going to be a 40-45 minute wait. So we figured we'd just wait it out, because we had a gift card and wanted to use it anyway. 45 minutes went by and we still saw no signs of a table opening up for us. All of a sudden we were seeing people that had come in after us being seated. Rob figured there must be some mistake so he went to ask how far down we were on the list. The girl couldn't find our names anywhere. She asked if we had left the building at all, and we hadn't. We had been standing there the whole time. She said that they had accidentally crossed our names off of the list (even though we were carrying a pager...weird) and that we would be seated right away. After we were seated the manager came to see us. She apologized (it really wasn't a big deal to us) and said that the pager system wasn't working and that they felt really bad because we could have been seated a lot sooner. Then she offered us free appetizers! YUM! So we were able to get free appetizers as well as a (mostly) free meal - thanks to the gift card! YAY!

Free stuff is good...but getting them because you had a hair in your food is bad. Ha ha.
