Wine drinkers unite!
a WONDERFUL piece in Slate:
It concerns the rudeness of waiters who rush the table and, without asking, seize up the wine bottle, and make pours all around.
I have long railed against this practice. It is stupid, driven by the wrong motives, and rude. Please take control of your dinner table (after all, it is yours--you are paying for it) and inform the waiter that your table will handle the wine pours, thank you. If you receive any backtalk in return, then enforce your request, vigorously if need be, and take the tip to zero.
