Going to restaurants in America seems like such a hassle.
I get fucked by it every time, where I live service is kinda sub-par, you're lucky if they say hello to you and if by some misfortune you're not ready to order when they come over for it, you'll see them again in 3 to 5 business days. So when I go to Canada (fuck going to the US, I used to for work but thankfully that's not needed anymore), the servers are being so nice etc because they want the tips, and my dumbass just falls for it every time, I'm amazed by the service and leave way too much tip, I only start adjusting by the end of the trip and by then I'm already resenting the whole thing because it's obviously all just fake as fuck.
This is what I'm referring to. I'm there for the food and the company I bring. Leave me the fuck alone.
Because a waiter sat at the table?
Yeah leave me alone what the fuck
I sometimes feel like all the negative experiences people post about rude waiters in e.g. Paris is down to this, just a cultural difference in what we expect.
I feel uncomfortable every time a waiter comes by my table and I am not about to order or ask for the check.
Absolutely. I found dining out in America to be really draining. It takes far too long to do anything, and you're constantly being attended to. That's because I'm used to paying up front for the meal, then having the food discretely served, and then leaving immediately once done. I'm sure Americans would find the local service where i live to be extremely poor.
FYI it's not a common occurrence and I think I've only seen it when there were kids at the table
After a long time i still feel impolite waving down a server. I used to work in an American restaurant and getting waved down was awful, like fuuuu... you were one more table in the rotation. But I'm slowly getting used to it. Because servers aren't doing constant rounds they have more free time to handle these things.
