This picture shows what could happen when a customer gets tired of waiting for a server. It may or may not be staged.

Sadly it is a real photo it can be found on Passive Agressive Notes.
It amazes me that a person would rather painstakingly write on a table with condiments than simply flag down a waitress. -
Well, if you're able to write THAT text on a table with ketchup, without being noticed and stopped by a server, then flagging down probably won't produce results.You gotta polish a memory like a stone. Chip off the parts that remind you it was just a game. Work it until it's indistinguishable from any other memory.Comment

Well, that's mature! I guess being an adult goes out the window while out in public!Comment

I'm of a mixed mind on this.
On the one hand, writing crap on a table in condiments is asinine and juvenile.
On the other hand, if a person had time to write all that on the table in condiments and nobody noticed, that makes me think that the service at that place sucked.

That gives new meaning to "Say Something Ketchuppy" doesn't it?Knowledge is power. Power corrupts. Study hard. Be evil.

hey, if I had to wait a half-hour to be noticed, juvenile or not i'd try to do SOMETHING to catch someone's attention....
barring doing a table dance...Comment

If I had to wait 30 minutes or long enough to write that, I would have just left. about 15 minutes beforehand.Comment

Before people start hating on whoever did that, as a server, I can't possibly imagine how one wouldn't notice people writing on their table unless that server really did suck or had left the area for an extended period of time (big no-no!). It was probably warranted.
Plus, ketchup and mustard are pretty tame to clean up. Two passes with paper towels, once more with a wet cloth, and a final wipe with sanitizer, and that'd be nothing more than a (somewhat annoying) memory.Last edited by Fox One; 06-17-2009, 05:35 AM.Comment

Me and a friend thought about doing that one late night at the local Steak and Shake. We waited 45minutes before being served. Only reason we stayed was because it gave us a chance to catch up and it was the only place open without having to drive 2 cities over >.<Comment

that's just sad...i understand if they're extremely busy but at least someone could have come over and said "we know you're here but we're busy so please be patient"...Comment

Wait...that was written at a BAR in the place, unless my eyes deceive me. How could someone not be noticed (either for service, or for doing this) there...?
