Over the last few weeks I have found myself in restaurants without family or friends more frequently then I have in the past. Usually, I'll take a book to read while I am waiting for my food. I don't know what made me notice, but I was being flirted with. Yes, I know that many waiters and waitresses do this to increase their tips, but it was still not something I had noticed, at least not directed towards me.
Maybe it was the eye contact. Maybe it was the comment(not mine) about complicated relationships. I don't know what it was that made me notice it, but I have noticed it on a few other occasions at different restaurants since then. I know it's not serious. It's just for fun, but it's something of an ego boost. I'll say this. It's much better then the tired, lackluster service I frequently get when I go out.
And from their point of view, it's probably worth it. I know I tip better. I'm sure I am not alone.
