[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not a favor. It is the person's job to take the order. "I will have the chicken, thanks," is totally acceptable at a restaurant. Obv if asking Grandma to make her chicken, please is in order. [/quote] Even if it is their job, why is it so hard to say "please"? Really, people, does it make you feel that much more superior to withhold please from a waitress when putting in your order? Is that how you fuel your ego? It takes no more effort to be polite. Go for it.[/quote] I agree with this. My DH omits please from requests (in restaurants and in general) and it makes me nuts because it sounds so rude to me. In fact, his entire family is unacquainted with please and thank you. I agree with your DH, you should be modeling please and thank you for your kids.[/quote]
