[quote=Anonymous]I am another person who likes to do this. I agree with others that it's not awkward after the first time or two, and that if you don't want to interact, a table is better. The one thing I do differently that people haven't mentioned, is that I tip better. Like you, I don't drink alcohol, and between that and the fact that I'm ordering just one entree, or sometimes two appetizers and no entree, and water, I feel like that's fair to the server who could have gotten a table of 2 or 4 who ordered drink and multiple courses. I know I'm less work, although I don't think I'm 1/3 the work of a table of 2 who is drinking alcohol, but they didn't ask for less work. If I go to my job and there's less work, which happens sometimes that we have a slow day, I don't get paid less, so I tip generously. [/quote]
