1) Flagging us down, and when you finally have our attention, not knowing what to order. There is nothing more annoying than having a customer try hard to get your attention, stop you at the bar, and then not know what drink to order. Are you mental? Seriously. There have been numerous times when I’ve been flagged down by a customer who obviously spent the last 10 minutes trying to get my attention, only to be give me a blank stare and a sheepish grin as he or she quickly decides what to order while I’m standing there, tapping my toes. Next time, know what you want to order before you get out attention
2) Throwing napkins or straws, or whatever to get our attention. This goes back to the first post about grabbing our attention. We know you’re there. Sometimes, it may take a while for us to get to you, but we know you’re there. Stop throwing things at us. We’re not monkeys, and this is not a zoo.
