[quote=Anonymous]Please accompanies a request. Thanks is for a completed action. I usually say please when ordering as I am making a request. There isn't much to thank them for at that point! When they bring the food, I would express thanks. I think either is polite and it is splitting hairs to say one is rude and one isn't. However if you are teaching a young child that when you ask for something you say please, then it makes sense to carry that over into a restaurant. At the dinner table would your child say "I'll have milk, please" or "I'll have milk, thanks" .[/quote]
