There's a popular saying that how a person treats service employees will tell you everything you need to know about that person.
It's popular for a reason.
TikToker Lizzy Smith, or @c0_0l__ on the app, has been using the platform to discuss her experiences in the service industry. She recently started a series specifically of skits to demonstrate her greatest pet peeves and there have been some serious doozies.
There were customers who seemed to have forgotten what they ordered.
It's incredibly awkward to see a server standing there with hot plates, trying to figure out who ordered which meal at the table, but it must be so much more awkward for the server who is trying to do their job.

Then there were the snappers and whistlers.
Servers are not animals and can't be called like them, either.

Of course, there always has to be one group that argues about who will pay.
Though it's a kind gesture to want to pay for your loved ones while at the restaurant, that's a decision that should be made well before the server comes to pick up the check.

There's the one who will never be satisfied.
There are those who listen to the dinner options and those who don't.

There are those who shouldn't have bothered to go to a sit-down restaurant.
If you won't interact with the server, why are you sitting down at a restaurant that isn't self-serve?

And of course, there are the jokesters.
There is just too much going on in the restaurant with the server's entire section of tables for this to be funny.

Some fellow TikTokers were furious about whistles and finger snaps.

Others pointed out they would walk away from tables who made paying difficult.

Some also wanted to walk away with food orders when their tables ignored them.

Though people go to restaurants for a nice meal, a quiet evening out, or a way to blow off steam after a long week, they should still try to remember the people serving them are people, too.
