Patch stood at the front of house today in Juniper's Diner. The retro aesthetic of the establishment surrounding him on all sides. Normally he never saw this side, away in the back of the kitchen washing dishes as he usually was. Yet Juniper had decided since their talk on him branching out and discovering himself that he needed to learn better people skills, and thus he was on waiter duty today.
Patch had argued against it of course, estimating that his outward appearance would be unnerving to customers. This would lead to less business which would lead to less revenue which would eventually lead to the collapse of the entire diner. Juniper had commented that his internal computer seemed like a pessimist.
Cheap Cheesecake Chewsday itself was a recent innovation. So recent that Juniper had quite literally come up with the idea this morning. Today was not a Tuesday, and the discounts were not limited to the cheesecake selections, but she had decided that she liked the name and wanted to roll it out as quickly as possible. She was the owner and proprietor and essentially Patch's mother so he hadn't really seen much space to argue with her on that front.
It was mid-afternoon now. The lunchtime rush had just ended and the amount of customers was starting to wind down. Patch's internal generator could only exhaust if he used too much energy in too short a time. It was designed to be self-charging so such minor activities would not tire him. If they could, about know he would be feeling just about ready to clock off.
He approached an elderly couple, attempting a human smile that probably came off like more of an uncomfortable grimace. His scanner went down to their plates.
The bell on the door rang as it swung open again and Patch swiftly turned his head to see someone sit down at one of the spare booths. Seeing as Juniper was still preoccupied he saw an opportunity to redeem his service skills. He made his way over to the new customer.
"Greetings and Welcome to Juniper's Diner! Today is Cheap Cheesecake Chewsday but there are other discounts available. If you require sustenance like most organics, the meals here are sure to meet that need." Not exactly what Juniper had told him to say, but he had calculated that an organic would wish to know if the food they were purchasing would fulfill their basic need to intake nutrients. Patch paused for another moment as he took in the appearance of this customer. "My memory banks indicate that I have seen you before. You took the stage at the accords rally, unless you have a clone."
