I'm with you on that. I detest the time wasted waiting to place an order. And even more I detest the time wasted waiting to pay and making payment. For some reason restaurants really like to drag the latter out as much as possible.
I'm fine with people adding value. Adding in unpredictable delays for them to carry paper between me and the cooks or me and a credit card machine is not value.
- sopooneo 15y agoI agree with both of you. And I don't think anyone likes to have to wait to pay. But as far as not liking being served, we are not the norm. I hate it, but I guarantee it is the psychological aspect of servitude that is most appealing to a wide swath of humanity that "treats" themselves at restaurants. I admit that it may be a matter of context. Going out from work to grab a quick bite might be different than an "evening of fine dining" even for normal people. In my life, I've found that those most interested in being waited on are those whose normal lives put them in positions of feeling put upon by others most of the day.
- polyfractal 15y agoThat's a very good point which I hadn't considered. :)
