> Once you made the mistake though, your response should be to apologize profusely and comp the entire meal. If you don’t do that then the girls will make a fuss and someone is going to end up fired. Surely that isn’t the ideal outcome for the server who simply made a little boneheaded mistake.

Once the mistake was made, someone should have been fired, period. Apologies and free food won’t stop a fuss being made–even if it did this time (which I’d doubt), it won’t next time.
