Ask The Salty Waitress: What can I do when I’m being rushed through a meal?
　　Dear Salty: A while back, my spouse and I made reservations at an upscale restaurant. It was a holiday, so they had two seatings: an early one and a late one. We chose the late one. 　　For the most part, the meal was great: seated right away, great drinks, wonderful...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Should I tip my barista for a cup of coffee?
　　Dear Salty, there’s a coffeeshop between my train stop and my office, and I get a black coffee there most mornings. I pay with my debit card, and the shop has a screen where I can choose the tip amount. I’m not getting a fancy latte or any food, so...

Ask The Salty Waitress: My family is way underdressed for this restaurant—should we leave?
　　Dear Salty: My wife and I were recently shopping in a neighboring city with our 2-year-old. It was getting to be midafternoon when a thunderstorm started, and we hadn’t yet had lunch. 　　We didn’t know the area well but passed by a restaurant we’d never heard of that looked promising—not...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Is it rude to ask the server to throw away my trash?
　　Dear Salty: I have a friend—an old-school entitled Republican reprobate—who insists on bringing his morning junk mail to lunch at a diner or restaurant and then asking our wait person to throw out the garbage when he’s done looking through it. 　　What do wait staff make of this habit? Does...

Ask The Salty Waitress: How can I get rid of lingering customers who hang out for hours?
　　Dear Salty Waitress: I have noticed two alarming trends in the restaurant in which I work. The first is people having meetings for an extended period of time (like three hours) while ordering very little food or drinks. 　　The second is similar but far worse in my opinion: Tables will...

Ask The Salty Waitress: How do I keep my food from getting tossed while I’m in the bathroom?
　　Dear Salty Waitress: I enjoy eating by myself at restaurants with a book. Depending on portion sizes, often I’ll eat half the meal and box up the rest to take home. My problem is that I have medical conditions that see me visiting the bathroom frequently, especially when I’m eating...

Ask The Salty Waitress: How should I respond when people throw measly change in my tip jar?
　　Dear Salty: I work at a neighborhood grill (hot dogs, burgers) where customers walk up and order at the counter. A lot of times, a customer will pay in cash and I’ll hand back something like six cents in spare change. Most of the time, the customer will just drop...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Is it wrong to fill my free water cup with soda water?
　　Dear Salty Waitress: For the past two years, I have been on a sparking water kick, mostly because it is just like water, only more interesting and substantial due to the carbonation. It has really helped me cut down on my diet soda consumption and random midweek beers with dinner....

Ask The Salty Waitress: What to do if the live band ruined dinner?
　　Dear Salty: This past weekend I was out with friends at a new-ish Japanese restaurant in town. I hadn’t read anything about it hosting live music, but about 30 minutes after my friends and I sat down, a trio of musicians started performing. They were set up so close to...

Ask The Salty Waitress: How do I fix an awkward situation between grandma and the server?
　　Dear Salty: My wife and I recently visited my grandmother and decided to take her out to a local diner nearby. My grandmother has mild dementia and can easily get confused. 　　When dinner was over and I got up to pay the bill, my grandmother decided she would cover the...

Ask The Salty Waitress: What can I do about these jerks at the table next to me?
　　Dear Salty: A real jerk ruined my birthday dinner last week, and now I’m wondering what I could have done to stop it. 　　Here’s what happened—I was out for dinner with my husband at a nice restaurant, not a bar or anything, and the guy at the next table is...

Ask The Salty Waitress: My super annoying server is ruining a restaurant I like
　　Dear Salty: There’s a relatively new brewpub in our neighborhood, and my wife and I have gone several times. It’s a great place to hang out, they have interesting and good beer, and the view is fantastic. The problem we’ve run into is that there’s a server that we always...

Ask The Salty Waitress: My manager wants me to upsell customers, but I feel gross doing it
　　Dear Salty Waitress: I’m a server at a mid-price, upscale casual restaurant, and I love my job. Recently, management has been pushing for us to boost sales by “suggestively selling.” The examples they give are saying things like “Can I get you one of our signature cocktails or local draft...
