A rich breakfast with coffee, croissants and 27 beers. All consumed comfortably at the tables of a pastry bar in Bari, but without worrying about paying the bill. «It was 8 in the morning. They stayed for five hours, they left little by little, the bill was 95 euros. We brought it to the table but there were only a few left, they said they would pay but an oversight of a few seconds was enough and we never saw them again”, the owner of Due Emme, Giuseppe, told the Quintopotere editorial team. The group of six young people was not reported, and a week later the story had an unexpected happy ending.

Excuses
“This time it’s my turn,” explained Giuseppe, who received a letter of apology from the boys. «We are very sorry for what happened, we were returning from a party and we were not aware of what we were doing.
We have reflected and we are not that kind of people, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. We are Erasmus students in Rome and we are no longer in Bari, but we kindly ask you to provide us with an Iban to make the bank transfer immediately. We apologize again,” the six young people wrote in an email. An apology which for Giuseppe has the same value as the unpaid bill, and which he decided to accept willingly, inviting the six students to return to him. «She was a “girl”, they made a mistake but I’m happy that they understood the mistake and that the matter was resolved like this», he told Corriere del Mezzogiorno.
