#7 Sometimes the restaurant seats you at a dirty table.
#19 Some restaurants have sh&tty tables that you have to refuse. I have seen tables at restaurants between the entry and exit doors of the kitchen.
It is also reasonable to not want to sit next to a loud party of 20 in a restaurant.

Hugh,
Well, if they seat you at at table that's dirty, you can just leave and not go back. But almost no place does that.
And probably no one wants to be seated next to a noisy table. They determine seating due to various reasons.

#15 Why is it disrespectful to call someone who waits on tables as “waiter”/“waitress”? I worked at restaurants and never recall this being an issue. What's preferred? Server? Sir/Ma'am? Hey you?

#2 But if you snap your fingers while calling out "Garçon", it's ok.

I love #1. It's a restaurant, not a playground. People who let their crotch goblins run around the place or throw tantrums on the floor are my least favorite. Red Robin I'm looking at you. For some reason food service seems to attract employees who are down on their luck. I understand having problems at home, but don't bring them to your work place. Respect it works both ways.

Some righteous complaints .... a lot of whiny b*tches.
If closing time is 10pm than post last orders, or last seating time at an appropriate earlier time based on your menue..... Just stop whining

People are coming to be served and have fun, remember restaurants are the place for haveong fun and not essentials, they can cook and play music at home.
People are not coming there to follow your house rules - except touching ofcourse.

Tashie, basic manners isn’t “house rules”. It’s the bare minimum expected when you interact with people, ffs.

#15 I get the snapping finger thing, but if you can't take being addressed with your actual job title you are clearly in the wrong job.
#21 If you depend on tips to get by your employer is doing it wrong. You should be paid enough to get by. Any civilized culture will have decent payment for the job itself (Yes, I'm looking at you, 'Murica). Then tips are added *if* you go above and beyond the minimum requirement to actually do your job.

Tine,
#21 - Not all the time...some need to work... so they accept whatever appears ... later they change to something better. If that person stays in the same place for a long time, yes, they are not evolving they are accepting their sh#t life... and that's wrong and then makes no sense to complain about tips, but you will never know if they are the @$$holes or the temporary whos is going to be something better in the future. Only if you go to the same place to much ... In the end, it is complex.

No. 5: I'll tell you what's annoying. When a restaurant says they're open but doesn't want to be. If you want to leave at 11, close at 10:30! It's not complicated.

If you live off tips and not your sallary, than you're pretty much a beggar. Why do people in usa agree to work this way? It's nearly as stupid as having prices without taxes or not using the metric system.

Winnie,
In Brazil there was a law the obligates you to pay 10% of the bill as a tip. This law was revoked, but most of the restaurants still charges and let the consumers decide, but we know that most of these people needs these tips ... it is a sad situation because we all know that in the end is the owner who is not paying the right salary...
