"Hello, we are Those People Who Expect To Be Waited On as if They Were at a Restaurant."

We're the couple that sits at one of the tables and looks up at the menu, deciding what we want from afar. When we come to our decisions, however, we do not go up to the counter and place our order like all of the other customers coming in; rather, we simply sit and wait.

After fifteen minutes or so, one of us yells out, "HEY, WE'D LIKE SOME SERVICE HERE!" A confused barista comes over to us and asks, "Um, can I help you?" Both of us launch into lengthy explanations of the drinks and bagels we want, and then smile stiffly and return to our conversation. It dawns on the barista that we think she's a waiter, and she interrupts and asks us to place that order at the register under the large sign that reads, "PLACE ORDER HERE."

This, of course, leads into a lengthy argument in which we chew out the employee for not taking our order from the table and allowing us the circumvent the line of people making their purchases the accepted way. Talk about terrible service...

It's very nice to meet you.
