Miss Amy, Mr. K, and I went to a mystery dinner party last night. It was fun. And we had some fun chatty people at our table. My only complaint was the “bar” situation. Or lack thereof. In order to get drinks, you had to register your credit card with a plastic drink card – like a hotel room key. Then you waved this card at a wall of buttons that filled glasses with drinks. No human involved. You didn’t find out that the drinks cost $12 each until you did this, and the amount popped up on the screen at each button. And the draft beer didn’t even fill the glass up halfway. Argh! I complained – something I never would normally do and got my first drink comped. I was shocked I’d have to pay $12 for a half glass of cheap American beer. I switched to nameless wine which seemed to fill the glass all the way. And how the heck could this setup which “stores” your credit card for later use be PCI compliant? I’m x-ing off the hours before my card is hacked.
