Why the food which is made and presented should match the menu description?

If the food served to the customer is not as described on the
menu then the customer will be upset. For instance if you ordered a
beef steak, potato and pees and were served with fish pie you would
send it back. A good restaurant will try to make the food cooked
for the customer as close as possible to what the menu says it will
be to help the customer choose and thus give the customer a good
experience.

If a DNA test is court ordered and you did not get the notice what happens?

You can possibly go to jail by not showing up. If you get a
notice it would be best to go. Otherwise you could possibly be
police escorted.
------ If it is court ordered, you will be served by a police
officer. If you don't receive the notice, either there is no court
order or they have wrong info on where you live. If you were not
served, that is not your fault. If you were served and are thinking
about saying that you weren't, bad idea. If you weren't served I
wouldn't worry about it.

C plus plus program first come first served?

The following program simulates a queue of people waiting to be
served. Initially the queue will have between 3 and 10 customers
(selected at random). We then start the main loop where we begin
serving the first customer in the queue. A customer can randomly
take up to 6 loops to be served (as determined by the serving
counter variable). Whilst serving a customer, there's a 1 in 6
chance that a new customer will be added to the queue during each
loop. The loop ends when all customers have been served and the
queue is empty (thus ending the program).
#include<iostream>
#include<random>
#include<queue>
#include<time.h>
int main()
{
// random number generator
std::default_random_engine generator;
generator.seed (time(NULL));
// uniform distributions (ranges for generator)
std::uniform_int_distribution<unsigned> initial_customers
(1, 10);
std::uniform_int_distribution<unsigned> serving_counter
(1, 6);
std::uniform_int_distribution<unsigned> no_add_customer
(0, 5);
// seed the queue with up to 10 customers
std::queue<unsigned> q;
unsigned customers = initial_customers (generator);
unsigned customer = 0;
while (customer<customers)
q.push (++customer);
// print the current queue status
std::cout << "There are " << q.size() <<
" customers waiting to be served\n" << std::endl;
// initialise the serving counter
unsigned serving = 0;
unsigned current = 0;
do
{
// if we're not currently serving...
if (!serving)
{
// serve the first customer in the queue
current = q.front();
q.pop ();
std::cout << "Serving customer " << current <<
'\n';
// determine how many loops to serve the current customer (1 to
6 loops)
serving = serving_counter (generator);
}
else
{
// we are currently serving, so decrement the serving
counter
--serving;
}
// if the serving count is now zero...
if (!serving)
{
// ...then we're finished with the current customer
std::cout << "Finished serving customer " << current
<< '\n' << std::endl;
}
else if (!no_add_customer( generator))
{
// 1 in 6 chance a new customer joins the queue
q.push (++customer);
std::cout << "Customer " << customer << " has
joined the queue\n";
}
} while (serving or !q.empty());
// Replace the word 'or' with the actual OR symbol in the
previous line.
// Note: the OR symbol cannot be shown on this website for some
reason.
std::cout << "The queue is empty and " << customer
<< " customers were served\n" << std::endl;
}

What are 4 bad things you find in your food that wil cause you to send it back?

This seems to be an issue of personal expectation, however it
would seem that 4 major reasons would be
1. If it was not what was ordered.
2. If it was not prepared correctly (i.e., meat is served
well-done, but ordered rare)
3. If there are ingredients that were requested NOT to be served
due to allergies that were inadvertently served
4. If for any reason it does not seem to be hygienic, ex. if a
hair is found in the dish.
