The politeness of Jordanian waiters can be quite shocking.
"In Jordan, if you compliment something, it’s considered impolite for the person not to offer it to you. I thought the warnings were an exaggeration until my friend complimented a waiter’s watch, and the waiter had it literally unlatched, trying to push it into my friend’s hands. 4 is the appropriate number of times to say no, and if you want it, it’s rude to say yes after fewer than 3 nos."
“I hope you find someone who will look at you the way my girlfriend looks at the waiter who brought us steak.”
