When 76-year-old finance CEO John K. Castle went to the posh Club Colette in Palm Beach, Florida last Saturday night, he naturally expected the very best. But when his expectations weren’t met to the exact letter, he allegedly snapped — more than just figuratively speaking.
According to a police report [URL="http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headlines/2012/01/angry-ceo-allegedly-breaks-waiters-finger/"]scooped by ABC News[/URL], Paul Kucik, Castle’s waiter on the evening of Jan. 7, made a mistake when he brought the bill to Castle’s table at the end of his meal. He was instead supposed to just put it on Castle’s account and not mention it.
The minor misstep so enraged Castle, who heads the New York-based private equity firm [URL="http://www.castleharlan.com/about/default.html"]Castle Harlan, Inc.[/URL], that he allegedly grabbed the 54-year-old waiter’s left hand and began twisting his fingers, even as Castle’s wife sat watching.
The police report alleges that Castle shouted at Kucik: “You schmuck, why did you bring the bill to the table?”
Kucik, who claims Castle’s wife actually requested the check, went to a doctor the next day for an X-ray, later telling police that his left ring finger was broken. He has not yet pressed charges.
Castle had not responded to Raw Story’s request for comment at time of this story’s publication.[/quote]

Nice to know that the world's economies are run by such reasonable, level-headed people.
There must be more to this story. . . But some people are dicks and do shit like this, comes from stress or being outright dicks.
Waiter brought his bill to the table, such are the trials of everyday life for the 1%

I live in the first world, and I wish this is what I had to worry about.
EDIT: So I guess, Zeroth World Problems?

I guess she didn't try to make a [i]Break[/i] for it.
He bought the bill to the table?
What kind of sick, perverted, sadistic motherfucker is this waiter?
I used to be against the death penalty, but a hundred years of brutal torture is not enough for this despicable subhuman creature.
Now excuse me, I need the negro to write angry letters. Apparently they're literate now!
How quaint.

Why is this guy's job title relevant at all. Anyone can be an asshole to a waiter.
Oh that's right, sensationalist.

How fitting
that rich guy has a pretty big nose just saying
That's an awfully feminine hand for a guy.
Yeah buddy you have it pretty rough we're not surprised you reacted in this way don't worry we understand.
Wow, must have been such a burden to know how much he payed for his meal, clearly he's a hard working individual that barely scraps by.
Oh wait he's rich as shit.
I'd probably punch him back.
you know when they use the word 'schmuck' as an insult, they're going to be a massive dick

It would be funnier if you had said "I'd probably punch him in the back"
Scum of the earth. I hate people who let money get to their head and act like they are first priority in the world.
Even if he presses charges, he'll just bribe the cops/judges anyway.

Jews don't, it's yiddish.
Oh hey look I guess he broke that guy's fingers because he makes so much money, right?
I mean, what other reason could there be? You don't see any normal people acting violent, must be this guy's money making him an asshole. People who make a lot of money are always assholes.
Gee, I suuuuurrree hate people who make more money than me.
Sounds like something out of Curb Your Enthusiasm or something.
What a dick.

Its more about how the violence was over something so stupid. Someone like a CEO should not have such a temper since he has control of probably thousands of jobs.

The waiter would have broken Larry's finger, then when larry went back into the restaurant, the same waiter would have mistakenly believed Larry was swearing at him (because his finger was strapped up). Hilarity ensues.

yes

Why would his job position dictate what kind of person he should be? If he's an asshole, he'll continue to be an asshole regardless of his income. Stop falling for the sensationalism.
Wow, that fuck [I]broke[/I] someone's finger?
He must've been twisting for hours.
