How long do you stay at your table at a Restaurant ?

They sit there for Quite some time, apparently.
well, some of them at least.

Some people just order 1 iced lemon tea and 1 soft drinks and sit for hours and hours.
It's totally acceptable when the Restaurant's not busy.
But if you're sitting there during jam packed hour,
plus you're taking that 1 big table in the corner.
That causes a problem.

Yup... there are other people waiting to be seated, hungry people.
and you're like, sipping your almost empty glass of iced lemon tea ?
and secretly try to smoke your cigarette when nobody's looking ?

and the worst thing is....
one the my waiters would come up to them and ask them nicely if they could move to a smaller table.
They got mad !!! and offended !!!
They actually start yelling
"Why are you treating me so disrespectfully ?"
"I paid for these drinks and I deserve to sit anywhere I want"

Oh man....

Another group of guests actually ordered food instead of just drinks,
(Around 10 - 15 guests)
but once they've finished eating, they remained sitting there
chatting for hours and hours, up to 4 hours even.
One by one would leave and there were only 4 guests left.
So since we have another guests of 15 people waiting to be seated.
We asked them if they would kindly move to a smaller table.
The same drama repeats all over again.
They actually got angry at us and told us what a bad service it was.

Oh boyy....

I'm not saying they're all like that.
Some are very very nice polite understanding people.
I mean like, If you've been sitting on that table for 2 hours and there are other people standing waiting to be seated, the reasonable thing to do is wrap it up and go, right ?

But sometimes people think when they go to a Restaurant and paid for their food,
they deserve to do whatever they want regardless.
Unbelievable right ??
