If you need to divide the check into separate payments, it’s a lot to ask for your server to itemize the bill for everyone at the table. Just provide multiple credit cards and kindly ask him to divide the check in whatever denominations you determine for each individual. You do the math. Or, better yet, collect cash payments in the different amounts from each person and pay in one lump sum–including gratuity of course. It’s lazy to expect a busy server to calculate how much each person owes based on what he ordered, so don’t do it. If you haven’t  worked on a restaurant POS system, then you can’t imagine what a royal pain in the ass it is to itemize someone’s bill when you have other tables who need attention. 

You should never order or ask for blue cheese-stuffed olives in your martini. Also, when we cringe at you for asking, please don’t try to convince us how good they are.  Cheese, of any kind, in a cocktail is a violation of everything that is sacred in the world.  If you need a cocktail with dairy so badly, order a White Russian. But we’ll still ridicule you in the waitstation. Oh, and we’re not gonna stop everything we’re doing to make you blue cheese-stuffed olives just because we serve blue cheese and have olives, so don’t even bother asking.
