I took our Melbourne visitor to lunch at the Harlequin (favourite pub for lunch) and when I went to order my meal, the manager told me he had been waiting for me. I do go there quite often, but not everyday, so got a bit surprised by his comment. He then explained that when my boss took the whole department there for lunch last week - he did not pay! As I had to leave that lunch early to go to a customer meeting - I had no idea what was going on and my boss was not answering his phone. I texted him and he rang me back and explained he really had tried to pay, but none of the staff knew where the bill was. He asked me to pay and I now have to do my expenses, which he knows I hate doing...
Whilst waiting for the food the manager came out with some free fish-cakes (I think he felt a bit sorry to have to ask me) but it was a nice gesture.
