I have been out to dinner with that guy! At Carabbas, this guy routinely asks them for an extra loaf of their bread with his leftovers and they actually bring it to him in a second bag so it does not get squashed. He rarely leaves a tip of more than 10% either.

I was out with the same couple at Red Lobster one time. His wife got the Coconut Shrimp with Pina Colada sauce - on the side in a ceramic ramekin. She asked for a box for a couple of the leftover shrimp and then put the ramekin in the box, too.

Maybe I need to go out to dinner with other people?
I would cringe with embarassment to be around people like that. It's just unbelievable.
