Who says there's no such thing as a free meal?

Tonight, I was offered an opportunity to have a free dinner at the new Rocky's restaurant on Westport road. I regularly do work for the company that owns Rocky's, so when this new restaurant was built, it was no exception. I was the person responsible for setting up their office computer and network.

Because these people are extremely nice, they asked me if I would be interested in having dinner before the restaurant opened. Apparently, they have a few days of "trial runs" before they open the store to the general public to make sure that their staff is as prepared as humanly possible. If you know me at all, you already know that I leaped at the offer.

Amanda and I arrived at the store this evening at 7:10PM and were immediately seated. How often can you say that about going out to eat at a restaurant in Louisville on a Saturday night, huh? The meal was on the house, with the exception of liquor and the tip. The food was superb and I think we may have had one of the best waitresses on the east end of Louisville. Despite it all being a trial run, she was excellent and extremely helpful.

Overall, it was a great night out. I ended up in the back side of the restaurant a few times to help with some computer problems here and there, but if that's all I needed to do to get a free meal, I was more than happy to do so.
