I went out to dinner the other night with friends. The friend sitting across from me, a man who is in his early 60's, was pretty hungry. During the meal, my friend proceeded to clean his plate. I hadn't noticed because we were all engaged in conversation and I was busy eating my own dinner.
After a while, the server came over to inquire if we wished to order dessert and asked if we were ready for her to remove our plates. She looked down at my friend's plate and said to him; "You ate everything on your plate! Good Job!"
I don't know if this was meant to be praise or criticism, but I am assuming that the waitress was simply a young mother who forgot for a moment where she was and who she was talking to.... :-)
