OK so I'm old and crabby, plus being English very cynical.
When I do business with Americans it's fine. BUT!!! when I go for a meal and this grinning fool tells me his name and that he will be my server and is there anything he can do for me..........
I feel like saying, "Deliver what I ordered, within 30 minutes, hot and refrain from wiping it around you arse and we will get on fine"
I always stop myself though.
Then they tell me, as I'm leaving, to have a nice day, to which I reply "I will have a nicer day if you stop grinning like a Cheshire cat."
It's the insincerity of it all that gets me. I would rather the honesty of the English. "We're on minimum wage, we don't have any ambition and we don't give a fuck if you buy anything or not".
