Segmented Service

I can do without restaurants that divide tables by sections and assign one waiter/ress to each strictly limited area. If the restaurant is managed correctly, this method is highly efficient...but we all know the only way this would happen is if we had a table at the Utopia, on the beach, and were served by unicorns. This pisses me off to the extent that I have vowed to veto a place after having consistently sat for absurdly long periods of time waiting for my token service attendant, a length of time that makes you start to wonder if the waiter took the time to individually dry each rice from mi risotto, with a cotton swab. And Still, you will not be given a second glance from a waiter not belonging to your area even if your lasagna spontaneously combusts and you are engulfed in a fiery mix of shredded McSurprise and stale tomatoes..
