Muneer A. Rasheed on Getting Stuck_With_The_Thrill
Have you ever gotten Stuck_With_The_Thrill?
It’s quite common in Asia that after eating to play Tug of War with the bill!
Sometimes it seems that participants are pushing the bill more to the other person rather than seeking the honor that comes with paying.
Even today in these times of plenty,you have those who order what seems like the entire menu; only to have a semi comatose look in their eyes when the bill arrives.
These are the same individuals that make absolutely no effort or the slightest of gestures to pay.
The even more more skilled feign paying by putting their hands in their pockets seeking the ever elusive cash.
It's funny how they only grab hold of it when you have already settled the check!
I sometimes wonder if the is some Asian version of musical chairs. Humm!
Admittedly, I have found the idea of tussling over the bill (which could rival the antics of the WWF) quite appealing.
So the next time you find yourself in Asia making that next big deal…
Why not give yourself a treat and...
Let yourself Get Stuck With The Thrill!
