How to be polite when dealing with waiters Bashny.Net

You sit in a cafe and see how the drama plays out at the next table: a perfectly normal waitress girl, smiling, cute, tries to explain to a hundred-gram bearded uncle why he cannot order from the children's menu. I can see that outwardly she is absolutely calm, but in the soul, probably already boiling volcano.





Rules of conduct in society They are taught to keep distance and tact in relation to absolutely all people, but our citizens are used to pretending that they are owed everything. This is especially noticeable in catering places, where waiters are perceived as servants who must perform any whims. They are people just like you and me.





Work as a waiter is not easy: you need to always smile, have remarkable exposure and in any situation to preserve the face and reputation of the institution. Let's go meet the guys and not annoy them with these things again.

1. Ask about the taste of the dish
   Especially expensive. How does a waiter know what tastes like a thousand-dollar frittata with a lobster? If you want to know, order or ask the chef. Or do you think the waiter has tried everything on the menu?
   
   
   
   
2. Order from the children's menu
   Especially if you're a big man in your forties. It's three times cheaper, but don't you think that's weird? The waiter tells you, you're an adult, order a pizza with sausage, not a jar of baby food. Why do you still have the nerve to resent?
   
   
   
   
3. Stacking small rubbish
   Which can suddenly be found behind a salt shaker or napkin. Leave the toothpick and torn sugar stick prominently so the waiter cleans up rather than blushing after you in front of other visitors.
   
   
   
   
4. Move the chair far away
   Make everyone stumble over him. Your desire to straighten your legs after a pizza with sausage and a package of baby food is understandable, but there are other people around you who are uncomfortable. The waitress girl is also not very comfortable with a full tray jumping over you every time.
   
   
   
   
5. Swap places
   Now you're sitting like this, then you're ordering, and you're switching places with a friend. The waiter's looking for you all over the room because he's visually recorded your location. Any person used to be so orientated, they say, there's that bearded dude who ordered from the children's menu, and then he was also eligible for pizza with sausage. Hey, wait, where'd he go?
   
   
   
   
6. Argue during order
   No, the waiter doesn't know the taste of baby food and doesn't know if you should get pizza. Try to decide on the order as soon as possible, so as not to delay anyone. It's terrible when you hold a person for ten minutes indecisively, putting your finger on the menu.
   
   
   
   
7. Require dishes that are not on the menu
   Are you serious? Came to the dessert cafe, and I'm sure you'll get dumplings? And you're taking a break on the waiter, you know? No, really, how can you even be understood? Do you go to the bank to get a cold? Do you open a deposit in the clinic?
   
   
   
   
8. Suddenly split the bill
   So you ate the baby food yourself, and you shared the sausage pizza with a friend who came later. You rightly want to split the bill: you pay for the meal, the pizza is a friend. It would be great if you would notify the waiter in advance so as not to cause too much confusion. You're not the only customer. Now everything needs to be rolled back and counted, and this is precious time.
   
   
   
   
9. Blow in the big company
   And do it without warning. Sometimes it is quite difficult to move the tables that are in different corners of the institution. You can safely call in advance and say, like, so and so, we have three tables, more baby food and a dozen pizzas with sausage.
   
   
   
   

The most important thing is to remain human. Everyone has equal rights and obligations, and someone genuinely loves their first job. Do not disappoint the boys and girls who are already having a hard time. Better leave a tip and be sure to say thank you, because the rules of conduct in public places have not been canceled.
