    When I worked at a restaurant we would occasionally play “America’s FAVORITE game show: DAUGHTER OR MISTRESS?”

        I’m reminded of a time I was on a business trip to visit a remote office, and I had dinner with a woman that I worked with. Both of us are married, to other people, who were not present. We must have given off the right vibes, though, because the server asked if we wanted separate checks at the end.

        Or maybe they thought the date had gone REALLY badly.

      I worked at an ice cream place, and me and another coworker would offer to upgrade people’s orders for free* if they let us guess if they were married, had kids, how many, etc. I have no idea why we wanted to play this game, but people were always on board, we got some laughs out of it, people got more ice cream, it was a win/win.

        • Not my money, don’t care. The owners would later fire me when I threatened to report them for withholding paychecks after a freezer mishap. I got my $23.
