Why is this thread in poor taste, firstly the bar tender is a very experienced person--the blame goes with the owner--one person can't be expected to handle the volume by himself
We will never wait an hour for a seat --however; if you're happy to drink $3.00/martinis in plastic cups--go for it We vorted with our wallet & Evans Prairies got the $$$-- Last edited by Chatbrat; 01-03-2015 at 02:33 PM. Reason: spelling |

Your problem was, as you said in the quoted post, with the restaurant, not with your fellow patrons whether they be seasonal or year round.

Instead of an attitude of gratitude, some full timers think snowbirds are a nuisance and express resentment, irritation and hostility.. I think they desrve to be honored, not reviled. I'm done. |

along with a refreshed attitude toward who lives where and how long.
Did you tell the bar tender the drink was wrong? Because no matter the ratioanale when all gets said and done that is who is at fault. If you did not call him/her on it then you have contributed to the problem worsening. Being too busy is not an excuse for anything responsible!!!! |

The bartender knew he screwed up, we never spend less than a $100/ every time we go out
" He knows us and said<," What do you want me to do?"-- I said a martini glass would be nice. This is not aimed @ the snow birds. honestly--Ray Charles could see my intent & excuse ME for not being a member of the TITLES club |

Two Different
There are really 2 different psychologies working. The year around resident has
significant respect for the care of The Villages while the snow bird does not own the house so is less apt to give it the same respect as a year round resident. Some of the Snow birds view this is as a vacation which gives an extra does of entitlements. This should not be considered unusual but rather the different psychology of a resident vs various form of "visitor". I believe to deny this is to deny what is a normal difference in 'care of the villages". The rewards of having visitors vs residents is an interesting debate? If you lived here in July you would see the significant difference in traffic, waiting in line almost everywhere while in July you can just move around without that kind of frustration. That is a way of life. I guess my greatest concern with the Dec-March visitors is their disrespect for speed, the lack of following the law regarding golf carts, (e.g.speeding, allowing kids to drive them, disregarding other carts, etc.) Of course we have this a little in the summer but no where near as in the winter months. It's the "vacation" attitude which governs that behavior. |

We are Snowbirds who have owned a home in The Villages since 2007. There are thousands of Snowbirds who are Seasonal Residents and who own homes in The Villages.

Indeed...about 50% of the owners in my Villas are Seasonal owners. Most do not rent.
