Some of the people.... some of the time....

A customer was continually bothering the waiter in a restaurant - first, he'd asked that the air conditioning be turned up because he was too hot, then he asked it be turned down because he was too cold, and so on for about half an hour. Surprisingly, the waiter was very patient, he walked back and forth and never once got angry. So finally, another customer asked him, "Why don't you throw out the creep?" "Oh I don't care," said the waiter with a smile. "We don't even have an air conditioner."
