Ever been caught in the whirlwind of dinner reservation gone rogue? You’re not alone. Today, we're pulling back the curtain on dining debacles and the hilarity of restaurant rules that'll have you wondering if you're eating out or signing your life away. Mary recounts an evening that spiraled into the realm of the absurd at a posh lakeside eatery and introduces you to the term "rich tits." And just when you think it couldn't get more bizarre, we tackle the comedy and sometimes headache-inducing drama of splitting bills and the peculiarities of customer service encounters in the restaurant world.
Kindness isn't just a word; it's a heartfelt action that can change the course of someone's day—or even life. In this episode, we share the warmth of human generosity, from a surprise act of benevolence at Cheers in Boston to a simple, yet profound act of paying it forward that taught the invaluable lesson of goodwill. As we spin these yarns, you'll see how these moments of grace weave into the larger fabric of our humanity, reminding us of the ripple effect one good deed can have.
But life isn’t all chicken wings and charity; it's also about standing up for yourself and navigating the sometimes frustrating pursuit of employment in a post-COVID-19 world. We candidly discuss the ghosting phenomenon by potential employers, the art of holding onto your integrity in business deals gone south, and the importance of setting personal rules of engagement in our interactions. It's a candid reflection on the importance of communication and forgiveness as we stumble, pick ourselves back up, and boil another pot of tea. Join us for a chat that's sure to serve up equal parts reflection, connection, and a dash of good humor.

Grab a warm drink and join us- we saved a seat for you. Don't forget to stay updated with Spill the TEA by following us on Facebook at Women Gathering and Growing with TEA or on Instagram at Grow with TEA.
