a.) What time were you ___________.
and
b.) How long did it take for __________.
I like one or the other ONLY, but I recently did one where you had to do both. I didn't want to decline the shop after getting the guidelines. On-site, I found it hard to do. You have to look at your phone/watch so much and press buttons for timing lengths.
I couldn't keep up (often, I was worried the server would know I was a shopper, given how much phone/watch stuff I was doing in front of her practically) and had to do the most annoying thing ever: rely on my audio recording.
I had to literally reconstruct the ENTIRE dinner by relistening to my audio file to get both the times and length of service times.
10-foot pole for me if I ever see these dining shops again.
eta: I mean ...if I tell you it took 10 minutes to get my entree after ordering it or it took 2 minutes for the server to greet me after seating, why do you also want to know the time (e.g. 9:04 PM) they did the action as well?
