This is so true!

A person, who is nice to you, but rude to a waiter, is NOT a nice person. (This is very important. Pay attention. It never fails.)

Absolutely true!!

Yes. Absolutely.

Another dead giveaway re: whether someone is genuine - if they only show respect to someone they feel can help them. I always try to observe people to see if they are just as nice to the janitor as they would be to the company president. Then I can tell if he/she is being authentic or not.

From a former waitor, truer words have not often been spoken ;-)

I'm usually nicer to the waiter then I am to the people I eat with. What does that make me?

Slightly off centre like me :)

Yes, it is TRUE!

Besides, you never know what the waiter might put in your dish before you get it!

Oh I would :) Im and ex-submariner and it did not pay to get on the wrong side of the chefs on board I can tell you :)

I find this to be seriously true! As true as a person who kicks a dog will kick you too!
Peeps who can not be nice to a waiter views themselves as standing on a higher sociatal platform, giving them the feeling of superiority over the "servant". People like that make me nauseous!

There's actually a song about this by David Wilcox. Basically it says "if he's mean to the waiter, run!" :-)

I think you are 100% correct. I was at a bar tonight, and had to remind the bartender three times that our fries didn't arrive.

They never did.

But we were nice to him the whole time!

I live in Japan and was with an American and we went to a restaurnat with a can of beer in his hand. The bloke said you can`t bring that in here and he turned to me and said this man (the waiter) is an idiot so I agree.

I totally agree too, also an ex-waiter..

One thing that really pisses me off is people that are rude to waiting staff and/or look down on them like they are a lower species, I mean wtf, you wanna go in the kitchen and cook it yourself, go ahead.

Nodding in agreement.
