9. Being Impolite to Servers

Servers often have a pretty difficult job. They tend to spend a lot of time on their feet during long shifts and, all too often, servers are not paid particularly well. On top of everything else, servers will also sometimes have to deal with rude and/or difficult customers, but still have to maintain their professionalism. If you are in a restaurant, bar, or anywhere else with servers, remember that they are people too.

There is no reason why you cannot be polite to them and a simple please and/or thank you will often go a long way. If you are not polite then it can appear as though you feel you are above the servers, which is very condescending indeed.
