Yeah this is unacceptable behavior. That said I think this is something that ought to be just explained to him because he might legitimately be a total dumbass.
That said I wish more restaurants were like Fuddruckers or Firehouse Subs and just let me grab my food from the counter myself once it was done. I don't really want to pay someone to carry my food & drinks to me and be possibly insincerely nice to me to increase their tip or whatever.
That's actually annoying as fuck.
Ask him if he wants to come back to the kitchen and wash his own dishes while he's at it.
This looks like the guy is self-reporting.
How's his patience behind the wheel of a car?
Now we have beige flags? Soon there'll be burnt umber, fuscia, striped, herringbone, and eventually they'll have gone to plaid.
I'm waiting for the swiss flag. It's a huge plus
My Chilean flag is that I enjoy back scratches.
Is a Chilean flag just a really narrow strip of fabric that runs down the entire length of the flagpole? If not, it should be.
My Chilean flag is that
digo weon muchissima mas que los otros español hablantes.
A cresta!
I'm waiting for houndstooth.
My cirulean flag is that I want more flag types.
I look for yellow ochre flags.
The whole ritual of being served at a restaurant makes me queasy. But I'd never dare interfere in it. Never!
Also, when the food takes long to arrive it's a good sign: they took time to prepare it.
Yeah me too, but I can’t help but not try and hand them plates to clear and get them all in order.
I don’t know what but I don’t like being waited on like that makes them feel like servants to me but we are equal.
Or it sat in the window too long waiting for a runner and now it’s cold (sadly, I’ve had this happen more often than it simply taking a while to be prepared).
I didn't consider that. BF's behavior actually makes sense in that case. I guess I never eat at restaurants that are that full. But seeing OOP's picture, neither do they.
I don’t really approve of their behavior because it’s sending “you don’t know how to do your job” vibes among other things. They could’ve just signaled to their server and asked for a status update.
I know as a programmer, I’d be pretty annoyed if someone shoved my chair out of the way to start typing the code themselves. No mechanic is going to be happy about a customer grabbing tools and doing their own work.
Or they're slammed and your burger comes out dry because they cranked the grill up to cook things faster.
I don't go out to eat at peak hours anymore.
Man, I don't even feel comfortable grabbing my own plate at a buffet.
Imagine his partner is in labour for hours. He gets impatient and just grabs a baby from the nursery and brings it to her with that smile. Like I’m hundred percent sure that if he does this regularly he has grabbed plates that were meant for other tables.

You don't want to know how often that really happened!
Because there's no such a thing as unskilled labor, some people believe that you can wait tables without training, and that people duck as waiters.
Plus they clearly hate the job so it makes me feel as if they are making me a favor.
That said, probably the job pays terribly and that's the reason why this happened in the first place.
I want competent waiters with competent salaries.
Friend of mine is a waiter who says things like “give me that two dollar minimum wage any day with tips.“ Says he makes more than anybody else in the restaurant except the owner. But again, this is skilled labor as you say, I couldn’t just go in and be the same caliber with no experience, he’s been doing this decades.
It depends on where you work for those tips. Fine dining and busy bars tend to do good. Though I was a bartender at one somewhat busy bar and tips were shit because the clientele were just that way. Old folks and people who spent all their money gambling on video poker mostly. Was kind of annoying when someone won big and bought the house a round but didn't tip at all or tipped $1.
But I only had that job for one year before I left to work in IT. No tips but way better pay overall.

If you're going to throw your money away, throw some this way. I haven't paid someone to carry food to me in like a decade. It seems like something from another world now.
THIS IS NOT A DRILL
I repeat
THIS IS NOT A DRILL
CONFIDENCE IS HIGH
(wtf is that even supposed to mean)
