i've never worked in a restaurant, but have worked in various movie theaters where i had to deal with 1000s of customers every weekend night, and 100s every weekday night. i know some of the things we would do was bs, but we only did it to customers that asked for it first. i've gone to restaurants for the first time, and i always cut the server the most slack cuz i know they are making least and doing the most, but i've had experiences where they would put me near the kitchen after i specifically asked not to. i've also had servers flat out refuse to remove something from my bill because it was cooked wrong and i never send anything back. maybe he thought he would get a lesser tip or something but that was inexcusable. but a side note, if the server doesn't do something that would warrant them getting fired, i won't stiff them. that's how they make their living. they don't even get min wage for the most part. anyway, that is my rambling. sorry for the long post
