Waiting an unnecessarily long time for the check is my bigger irritation. I'm nice to service staff no matter what, but I've never understood how a manager or server will chill and not look around after they know they've filled served a table. I know people can longer awhile, but still.
I went to a Jack in the Box a couple weeks ago. They took my order, then told me to pull ahead and wait. Fine.
I wait five minutes…ten…15. Meanwhile, there are two or three employees outside talking and smoking.
Finally, after 35 minutes and seeing other cars after me get their food, I walk inside and show them my receipt and ask if it's ready. They hadn't even started it. Eventually I get the order. I was angry enough to go to the corporate site and fill out a form the next day (talking to the workers wasn't going to do much good, I could just tell). The owner texted me and said he'd have a free meal for me next time. Since I have a mild gluten allergy (it used to be more severe), I haven't gone back. I probably will eventually. It's weird because I've never had a problem at the location.
Yeah have been in the UK/Ireland a few times in the past few years and at it's very worse the service in those places was better than the standard level for the US these days and that includes being in the biggest of cities and smallest of towns.

I could never marry a vegetarian.
She's already confused by those goblets and the sayings on them. Would be a pretty hilarious curveball if it was actually about her.

My wife gave up beef years ago. Our dogs said more scraps for us
When she started she'd ask for a bite of my expertly prepared rib steak and the dog would get upset
Cooked on the shittiest sub $200 grill on the market!

I know how to hit a pod below the belt!

The Brit's don't do a ton of things better than the US. But, they don't have a tipping culture and that is better.
Believe it or not, it doesn't really impact customer service like you would think.
100 percent agree. I hate us tipping culture. It’s so out of hand.
