Why? Because any manager worth their salt is taught, has been taught, and will forever teach that if a customer need to pour their own wine, then you aren't doing your job. That means waiters normally wait (or at least they should) until you have two or one sips left in the glass to pour. Pouring to the brim is unacceptable, as glasses should be poured up the the 1/3rd point anyways, so I get your scruff there. I'll be certain to bet if you tell a waiter that you'd like to pour your own wine, they'd love to have that burden off their backs and you with your wine not on the tablecloth.<BR/><BR/>Anyways, just a suggestionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19953700.post-77843061689517440762007-10-10T17:32:00.000-05:002007-10-10T17:32:00.000-05:00Hi E, I am looking forward to your posts.I have fo...Hi E, I am looking forward to your posts.<BR/><BR/>I have found the only way to prevent this travesty is to gently but firmly tell the waiter you will pour out your own wine. Of course, if the wine is sitting in an ice bucket out of reach that is a problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
