Not being at least greeted within a few minutes is a cardinal sin. I better have a drink within 5, 10 mins if busy.
I'm sorry they didn't recognize you as the Queen of England, your highness.
I agree they should at least greet you within 5 minutes and let you know if they are too busy to move forward with your meal. Once they do that, it's up to you to decide if it's worth the wait or not. Some of you seriously over value your importance.

I think it's funny you feel people think they leave due to their entitlement of importance. As a consumer a person makes a decision to spend their money at a selected restaurant. As a server, hostess/host you have chosen to work in a service oriented business. It should be no shock that expectations will be put upon you.
A server makes money based on how they enhance or detract from a consumers eating experience. If a server has done well then their expectations are to be paid well through tipping. Dang right I will expect someone to acknowledge my presence even if they are busy. It has nothing to do with my importance but expectation of someone being courteous and letting me know why I am waiting at the table. It comes down to common courtesy and nothing to do with a sense of importance. If a server were to come by and explain there will be a slight delay , then most people would be fine with that and wait.

When trying too hard goes wrong.
