Family Kicked Out of Buffet Restaurant

I really understand can understand why they got kicked out.

I worked as a busboy in a Chinese restaurant. They had an all you can eat buffet featuring Crablegs. Going around and picking up plates only to see nibbled on food was very pleasent. I had to throw away so much food because people were simply nibbling off of so much and then tossing it aside. Especially the children. Seeing how much food was wasted just sickened me (that and the fact that I actually was picking up people's table waste).

I remember there use to be Crableg shortages at the resturant. A lot of people were getting mad because they could get the Crablegs (which was basically the only reason some of them came, especially the blacks). While going around picking up plates, I got to a table that had a whole bucket full of crablegs yet they only nibbled on 2 and left. So, basically, the people who actually needed the crablegs couldn't get it because of the wasteful people before them.

I've noticed at the restuarant that the majority of wasteful eaters were caucassion families.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well, that doesn't excuse the fact that they need to learn some self-control. If you have a fridge full of tasty food that can be eaten on the spot, does that mean you should try to eat all of it, pick over the rest, and then throw it away?

I guess this just goes with the fact that people go crazy and want to gather all that they can at buffets, even if they can't handle it. (Buffets = Hungry Hungry Hippos: Human Edition)

People just need to be taught to eat everything on their plate or to not get so much. The Klump family would be devastated if they saw this tragedy today. (they died from heart failure while finishing off the fat on their hot wings...Is that what 'cleaning your plate' does for you?)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Pretty much. I've seen a lot of people try to load up on food just because they paid for a buffet so they want to get their money's worth. This can make some people get greedy and just try to gather as much as they can. (Again, Hungry Hungry Hippos: Human Edition)

When you actually have to pay for individual food yourself, a lot of people get a little more hesitant about wasting food.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
