This sort of behavior will "wear down" the waitstaff and management, they are only human. You catch more flies with honey than vinegar. If you have an issue by all means talk to the management about it but pay attention to your language and attitude. I am not trying to lecture anyone here, just some friendly, well meaning advice. There are two groups of people I go out of my way to be nice to: flight attendants and waitstaff. They have very tough jobs and are in the trenches all day long.

I agree one hundred percent. I have see some very rude and nasty behavior from senior citizens toward wait staff since living in the villages. I agree it some of the actions and words come out of no where without any cause. I think it's pretty much common sense to treat people like you want to be treated. I'm always especially courteous to flight attendants since they are serving my alcohol. I've seen some real jackasses on planes get cut off due to their own arrogance.
