I have a restaurant threshold of acknowledgement of about two minutes. I'm not talking about getting seated, I'm talking about how you walk up to the host or hostess and they blatantly ignore you or worse yet there's not a soul alive manning the asylum. All I want someone to do is say "yes, we see you're here, welcome, and we'll get you a seat ASAP." If I have to stand there waiting like a Pavlovian dog after the bell has rung waiting for my treat, I'm going to have to take some manager out behind the building and snap his nose with a rolled up newspaper. How hard is it to say "hello"???
