Mrs. Garrett was telling Tootie they should pay full price for the cold pizza because...
"I waited tables when I was younger, and every time I made a mistake, it came out of my pocket."
It did, didn't it, Mrs. G.?
Now tell me... What is the name of your show again?

I'm confused what irked you? She was trying to get Tootie to do the right thing. Whats wrong about it?

I'm confused, too.:confused:

a third on the confused motion

I'm also confused on this, explain plz

Since I have to explain this, let's look at that quote again:
"I waited tables when I was younger, and every time I made a mistake, it came out of my pocket."
Of course it came out of her pocket. She was the waitress, and she made the mistake, so of course she was gonna pay for it.
"Facts of Life", folks!
She was using this to get Tootie to pay full price for a cold pizza, after the pizza place apparently told her they'd let her have it for $10 instead of $12?!?
Go figure.

I see what you mean. Yep, you make a mistake you have to pay for it.

I see what your saying but still she was trying to teach tootie a lesson

I watched the episode the other day, and what Tootie said was that the waitress 'goofed' and gave her the wrong change, that is why she got the pizza for $10 instead of for $12 - not because it was cold pizza.

But Mrs. Garrett is just making a point, that it's the waitress whose pockets will be 'short of cash' that day.
