Then you were fine... And you've worked in that field so you understand the situation. Like I said, I personally prob. wouldn't have given as much but that's just me.
I seldom ever sit at a table as I travel by myself about 95% of the time.
I also walk out of a restaurant if they don't have a bar where they also serve food [Happened to me one time in Houston at Macaroni Grill - no bar... I left]

I don't think we were particularly inconsiderate to take the table in light of the fact that we did (eventually) tip the waitress quite well - she was very busy and we were very low maintenance. If it was a mom-and-pop place where every food sale really counted towards the bottom line, I wouldn't have stayed at the table, but this place wasn't going to go out of business because we didn't order sandwiches
