From a 2004 post on Waiter Rant:
“Whadyya mean it’s not available?” the man practically screams
“The table has already been reserved. I’m sorry.”
“Well move them and give it to me.” the prick says huffily.
“I cannot do that sir. Perhaps you would like a reservation at ten o’clock. That’s the next available opening.”
“Put the owner on the phone right now.” the man yells.
…
“Listen I am a good friend of Flavio. Put him on the phone.”
The owner’s name is Fluvio. Some friend.

Restaurants bring out the worst in people. The world and all its problems disappear into a protective bubble of infantile egocentricity. Cool.
