We are “nautical wheelers.” We (the HOBO types) have come to the Lake to enjoy Lake Life. Part of that life… an important part of that life… is having places like Harbor Docks and Chuck’s to go to… especially by boat…  for camaraderie, fun, and reasonably good food. We wheelers seek the ambience those establishments provide. There must be a lot of us during the warm season… we pack those places.  

And when those places are packed, the staff and facilities are often maxed out.

There has not been a time when I have been to either, when any member of the wait staff or the management has been wearing uniforms. Shorts, old jeans, running shoes, T-shirts… hair pulled back and tied or clipped… the staff is as varied as the society in which they… we… live. Most of the wait staff are just entering the work force… and some are economically pressed to wait tables or be a host/hostess.  If you were new to a sometimes grueling – often impossible – job might you sometimes be a bit confused… or surly? Do you think they are NOT struggling with some other life situation which is distracting them from the pittance they get from serving YOU!

Not every dog is a friendly dog. I have watched folks having fun… only to go vicious on the wait staff. If that person is in my party… it will be the last time I party with them.
