There have been occasions when I’ve had my grocery/supermarket shopping packed at the till. While understanding the convenience of this, I found that they didn’t pack it correctly and on unpacking my purchases at home they were damaged. With the decline in the use of plastic bags ( which we now have to pay for) most ecologically minded shoppers are using non disposable reusable bags for their shopping. I always use a shopping trolley, preferably the shallow tray type. I return all my purchases to the trolley and then after paying for them pack my bags elsewhere. One thing which annoys me intensely are people who have large amounts of shopping and then block the till for others while they pack their groceries.

Like when i just sat at a table it's pretty clear that i need a menu if it's not on the table already. And it's pretty clear that i will have to order a few minutes later. And then when i'm finished and there is no more food/drinks on the table it's pretty clear that i'd want a check or order more. I don't want to call a waiter for those things.

As a Waitress in a British large chain restaurant (not giving name to protect the company) it is literally our job it is like an actual written rule that we are to check on the customers. Trust me we don't wanna do it anymore than you want us hovering. i have social anxiety and pretty much feel utter indifference towards most people but in this job you gotta slap on a smile and be all tentative and happy and helpful and you have to pester people. we hate it but its litersally what we are paid to do.

Bacon isn’t ham. Ham comes from the leg of the pig (the word “ham” comes from an Old English word meaning “leg”). British bacon comes from the back of the pig, so it can’t be ham. And you can buy streaky bacon in the UK, if you prefer that.

Even as an American I was like, this seems like just things in America because we like junk food and a lot of big stuff so what were you expecting though if the waiter thing is true than they are literally paid to do their job so freaking do your job! Also why do you guys use knives and forks on everything? I'm curious. I'm only getting the facts from this video. Also I have never seen this thing called a bag boy. What rich neighborhood is Evan living in?

Ok nvm. Apparently this is a thing. Mostly in New Jersey and in that area where Evan lives but the employee who cashier's also puts things in bags which is something I never really realized (though it makes sense. We Americans get very angry if you hold up the line. We're usually in a rush and very impatient). It might also be because we self check out a lot.

It's considered really bad etiquette in the UK to bring over the bill before it's asked for. It's really rude and customers will definitely feel like you're rushing them. If you're ready for the bill, you just ask for it. Not that hard 🤷

I get that you don't want to bother the waiter again. That makes a lot of sense. But when I visited the us for the first time, it always felt like the staff was trying to get rid of me and I felt super rude for staying ten minutes more after I had finished my food

@barilllapasta

4 жыл бұрын

Marl0u14 it’s not that they’re trying to get rid of you, but in the states there’s very much an awareness that staying too long at a table after you finish eating (past 30 minutes, generally) is extremely rude to the server. Remember that their paychecks are almost entirely dependent on tips, so the longer you sit at a table, the more potential income you are denying that server.

I'm on your side about the getting rounds thing. It encourages everyone to keep up or to down their stored up drinks at the end of the night and yes there is the issue of money, cause sometimes you start of with a group of four and you think yeah alright I can afford to buy two rounds for us, I mean that's me paying for 8 drinks right there. But then if your friends start chatting to some people and suddenly your group is eight people and now when you go to get the second round you've baught a total of 12 drinks and drink isn't cheap in the UK so yeah defenitely agree with you on that front.

Also to all the yanks out there the reason that your waiters aren't waiting on constantly is because we actually pay our staff a wage they can actually survive on and as a result restaurants hire fewer waiters, we can't wait on you in that non stop hovery American way because there only 2 or 3 of us to cover a largeish restaurant.

Exactly. All it takes is to catch their eye and then nod, or just mouth "can I have the bill please" with a hand gesture of some sort and you're good. In Britain you avoid drawing attention to yourself at all costs. You just discretely signal the waiter so that you dont disrupt anyone else around you, and that way you're being polite. Putting your hand up, especially before catching a waiter's eye, is seen as quite obnoxious and rude
