Then fine, don't accept AMEX and I'll gladly give you my Visa, but as long as you take AMEX, I don't want to hear about your problems or receive your dirty looks.

--- In fact, the worst disaster I've seen locally is a restaurant that notes on the bottom of the checks that they accept Visa/MC only. They used to take Amex, and their POS was still set up for it, and any customer who remembered previously paying with Amex could make a stink and still use Amex -- which other customers would sometimes see, and they'd get annoyed if they had already paid. In the end, they didn't make anybody very happy -- not very effective hospitality.
