Subject: When leaving a sit-down restaurant...

I'm an Anarchist. I don't need a government to be a good person, but I'm glad it's here because some of you clearly do.

When you leave a restaurant that insists that you leave your plates and whatnot on the table when you decide to leave the restaurant, do you make an effort to clean your table, do you somewhat organize your mess, simply put the utensils on the plates, or do you simply put the money down and walk away?

Please explain why you choose to do so.

I'm not asking about tipping. That's an entirely different thing.

I work in a restaurant, and I've seen everything from a perfectly clean table, aside from a huge neatly organized stack of dishes and utensils, all the way to a table where you couldn't see the table, and there was a diaper on it.

Deal with it.

The vote is unanimous.

For once the Flood agrees on something(for more than 5 seconds)!

I will put the plates and stuff together. They normally do a lot of running around does not hurt me to take 2 seconds to help a little.

Ad Infinitum

I don't clean every spec of dirt and spit-shine the place, because it's not my job. However, I do try and organize it by putting all the leftovers, napkins, and utensils in a neat fashion on the center of the table. I also leave a tip. Depending on how good the service was...

There's no way to get back experiences you missed.
So start right now today and risk furiousness for bliss.

I don't make a mess when I eat, so I usually just get up and leave.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

I clean it up and stack it for ease of transfer. I also thank the person who takes it away.

Gather around the campfire, once it goes out, it's out for good.

I don't know how the dish-washer or busser wants it, so I simply put it all in one place for them to organize it how they want.

man i get an erection just lookin at my girl lol and i dnt hide it i mean she realy doesnt mind she actually likes it lol also it shoes you dont have ED problems (i think)

Truer words were never spoken

I usually pile all my garbage onto the plate before they come to pick it up.

  • 12.09.2012 7:27 PM PDT

Uh, neither. Usually restaurants have good enough service to have busboys/waiters pick up used dishes before you even finish all your food. Eventually all you're usually left with is just one plate and your utensils, which isn't much clean up.

You've never been to a restaurant that doesn't pre-bus its tables?

What are these first person words you speak of?

Why on Earth are the first 5 posts reported?

OT: somewhat clean up the mess.

OT: Is it a absolutely huge hassle to clean up the tables if the person leaves it at the point where you couldn't see the table?

I usually put all the trash on the plate and kinda clean up. I'm a nice guy. Also, why are so many posts being reported for seemingly no reason?

Proud Spartan II, COG soldier, Hero of time, and crowbar wielding scientist.

There's been a great increase of reports recently, but this is ridiculous.


IT'S GROWING.

Da Husk.

I get up and leave.

  • 12.09.2012 7:36 PM PDT

Is this some sort of glitch?

I don't leave personal stuff on the table, but I don't really clean it either. I usually don't leave the table very messy in the first place, because I'm an adult.

  • 12.09.2012 7:45 PM PDT

The human element always mucks things up.

I leave the place as a warzone because it ain't ,y job to clean it up.

I try to make it as easy for the bus person to do their job, but I know that they're there for a reason, so I'm not going to scrub the table.
