So. Waiter Rant. Kind of like customers_suck, except it's only one person posting ("Waiter"), and it's usually wank-free. Usually.

The waiter that writes the blog recently started working in a new restaurant, and has become . . . slightly bitter. As a result, he posted first "50 Signs You're Working in a Bad Restaurant," then "50 Signs You're an Asshole Customer." The first doesn't garner much attention, but the second . . .

Four hundred comments later, people are still wanking over:

-Whether it's acceptable to bring your own tea (look for Desert Princess, misspelled as Dessert Princess).
-Whether it's acceptable to leave a tip on a credit card that ends in a weird amount ($2.51 on a tab for $10.49).
-If you should tip on takeout.
-If asking about the music is okay.
-Why saying that you're allergic to an ingredient in order to get it taken out of your food is evil.
-How bitter "Waiter" has become.
-What is a 'normal' tip—fifteen or twenty percent.

Namecalling and accusations of elitism abound, and perhaps 1/4 of replies become non-wanky.

I've learned unless I say I'm allergic to pickles (it's the dill), people just stick it on and then the waiters get pissy when I send it back. People think I'm a picky eater when I order, then comes the magic, "I'm sorry, but I'm allergic" and suddenly everyone is a lot nicer about it.

I hate being allergic to dill of all things.

At least you're not on my whacky IBS diet. I can't have anything with roughage in it. No capsicum, no tomato skin, no seeds, nuts, brown bread, the list goes on and on. Nothing overly oily, nothing fatty, and if I diverge off this path - debilitating stomach cramps!

I haven't tried going to a restaurant since switching my diet but I just know it's going to be an issue one day.

Dude, I went to a friend's house yesterday night and she fried all the food on the barbacue. All the vegetables had their skins and there were delicious bits of nuts strewn through everything. My dinner was a handful of wafer crackers, a piece of pavlova without the fruit skins and three glasses of wine.

I was SO drunk that night, mainly because of the empty stomach.
