Sadly, many of the people who post here need to read this. Equally sadly, they won't.

A "How to be an a-hole in a restaurant" thread would likely generate more responses.

I don't disagree with any of those BUT ... turnabout is fair play.

You say you open at 11, be damn sure to be up and running full bore.

My reservation is at 7:30, then you need to seat me at 7:30 p.m.

You better serve every item that is on the menu.

Actually, I don't expect every item on the menu to be there every time. I don't expect to be seated exactly at 7:30. And, when I picked up lunch at Munjuni's today right at opening, they didn't have mint tea ready. I survived.

I don't want to get served at 9:55 if the place closes at 10. The norm, unfortunately, is that things start closing down at 9 when the place closes at 10.

I'm a waiter's perfect customer. I never complain. Always leave a nice tip. My favorite story. Years ago I was at a Steak place with the wife. We ordered a bottle of red wine.

The waiter was on his first day and did not know how to open a cork. After pulling instead of using leverage he turned his back to us, put the bottle between his legs and started yanking at the cork really hard. He looked like he was masturbating. It was hysterical.

A manager came up and showed him how to use the corkscrew.
