ANother one that drives me crazy is when a wait-person comes up to you while you are taking a break from eating ans asks "Are you done?" First of all I might be finished, but I am not "done." Second they should be able to tell by where I put my utensils on the plate, and third if I am sinished or not they should not take away the plate untl everyone else at the table is finished.

Also when you talk on the phone to repair people or credit card people who are in India, they always say their names are something like "Troy" or "Skip." This is obviously untrue.
Are they trying to protect their identiies? Do they not want us to find out their surnames are either Patel or Singh?
