Walking in an sitting down at a dirty table is simply classless. When I was in "the business," staff would simply ignore the offender and let them wallow in the mess. "Oh, you are waiting for service? I thought you had been there and were relaxing."
It is amazing--but shouldn't be--how many people go out of their way to make life difficult for others.
