Why MEN??

okay okay, I will give this one to you guys, since it is not an earth shattering point for me either way, just a pet peeve. ( I am one of those non-confrontational wine drinkers which is why I always suck at these debates...<grin> ) I can see the arguement that you are making has some validity. I WILL continue to give a better tip to those who are attentive enough to know who is doing what tho, because I have on occasion seen waiters who are wonderful at this. Being able to read the situation, and make the proper decisions is, after all, what makes any good service provider stand out above the rest.

As for getting offended by sexism, it takes a pretty blatant offense to make me mad. I must admit to being a perfectionist, however, which is why little things like this wine service "mistake" get under my skin. As for whose name goes on the reservation and things like that, it doesn't really make any difference to me, or him. It is just the way we have always done it.
