There are not a massive proportion of society buy even a bit of a percent is a lot of people overall. You would might that people out for a nice relaxing meal, or shopping in the middle of a holiday, would be pleasant to deal with: but you&apos;d be wrong. I know a number of people in retail and I can tell you (through indirect experience) that the general public can be unrealistically demanding and completely unpleasant if their demands are not met, repeatedly, yesterday.&lt;p&gt;By way of an anecdotal example: I know someone whose father thinks there is nothing wrong with clicking his finders and yelling &quot;BOY!&quot; at a waiter to get their attention. Except in Italian places - there it would be &quot;Luigi&quot; rather &quot;boy&quot;. I bet he consumes a lot of spit when he goes out for a meal...&lt;p&gt;For many reasons many people out there are dicks. I might well be one of them if I&apos;m honest with myself, though not one of the worst by a long shot. And if you work in retail or catering you are likely to meet far more than your fair share of them. Remember: most workers in a shops or restaurants deal closely with far more members of the public in a day than most of us encounter closely enough to notice in a year.</text><parent_chain><item><author>Alex3917</author><text>Who are all these people who chronically mistreat the waitstaff?
