As for paying at the table while the wait staff stands there....yes it can be uncomfortable, but i'd prefer that they come to me for payment as opposed to me chasing them down or paying at a pay station.
It probably kept getting compromised because the US is still (but will gradually stop) using magstripe. Sorry
