I thought this to be common courtesy everywhere?
It *can* be seen as rude, depending on the culture. Like, "I did your job for you because you took so long". More often in "high class" settings, like places that need reservations weeks in advance.
But most of the time, people just don't care to assist the waiters and most waiters will appreciate it if you stack the plates. Some may judge you if you do it wrong.
I really never liked tables that did this, in the restaurants I worked we observed oldschool etiquette… as long as someone is still enjoying their meal, we don’t clean up and if you do, I’ll asssume you just lack education.
Common courtesy is much too uncommon to be called common
And what's that say about common sense?
That's sad. And that's coming from a misanthropist that can't stand his own species. Doesn't mean I mustn't be polite to them.
