What satisfaction do you get out of being an asshole to your server? You should get a punch in the face as far as I’m concerned. Stop with this holier than thou BS. Just be kind. Give people the benefit of the doubt. 

Have I had absolutely terrible restaurant experiences? Of course. I’m pretty forgiving, though. I used to work at Macaroni Grill for many years. So many different personality types I had to deal with. 

Tonight, I watched this guy across the room on a power trip. His server had six other tables she was waiting on. Dude was impatient and ended up involving the manager. I could tell he never waited a table in his life.

Is it really that hard to be empathetic?
