It's not a funny joke.

Yeah, not really a joke one should make to a person they're serving, much less one who's there for a business meal with superiors. If OP didn't say/do anything to correct this creep or report the behavior, it was probably not viewed well by her superiors, who could well think her weak. It may seem like a small thing but really, lack of speaking up in this case could affect her career.

Do you think being seen as an "easy target" because you've been drinking is a joke? I sugget you revise your sense of humour.

really #28 you think it's okay for someone to joke about raping someone? that's not funny or any kind of pick up line I ever want to hear.

#32, I don't think the waiter's behavior is somehow made worse by her being at a business meeting, whether it looked like one or not -- the waiter's behavior is horrible, period. Would it have been somehow better had she been with her family (spouse? kids? parents?), on a date, with friends, or all alone? I, too, hope the OP reported the waiter to management/ownership and not just to FML.

I don't think it's a joke about a rape. You're all just reading way too much into it.

65- It's a joke about taking advantage of someone too inebriated to give clear minded consent to a sexual advance or act. "Taking advantage" translates to "sexual act". "Inebriated" translates to "unable to give sober consent to said sexual act". Read- rape. Apparently, you're not reading into the comment enough.

As a waitress I take offence to this. people in low paying jobs are not lower life forms for you to look down upon, they may well work extremely hard/long hours/have muliple jobs/be supporting themselves through higher education. The "joke" was entirely inappropriate but is unrelated to his job.

Nicely said #35.

I admire and envy your naïveté, #42. I wish I could have that much faith in humanity, but where I come from, alcohol + "take advantage of" = rape.

regardless of how he meant it, that still sounds kind of rapey.

#42 You're pretty ******* retarded if you think this has anything to do with rape. Yes, it was clearly said very wrong, but it was clearly meant she'd tip him more if intoxicated.
