So vet the candidates and ask about the specific policies, don’t talk about hating him in college because he’s dorky - that’s totally irrelevant (and frankly I thought he came off as uniquely awesome, not to mention your total ignorance of how hard it is to fit in as a closeted gay college student). Frankly I’ve…

Server at the resturant? Hell, as a patron I’m going to say something.

I have always found it interesting that these parents will change their kid’s dirty diaper where other people eat, yet will ask you to put on hand sanitizer before you hold their baby.

If I saw this happening I would immediately stand up , find my server, and tell them I am leaving and not paying the tab and telling them exactly why. I might give them an opportunity to tell the person off and might return sometime...but that meal would be over immediately.

WORD. Preach. Bless you for speaking truth to the spawning powers of the  nation. 

You’ve never been to Disney World, have you? Parents do this at Disney all the time. And yes, they will change the baby on the table itself! This is a management problem and that’s why they get paid the big bucks to handle situations like this. The managers did nothing. And I know that if I say something, I’ll get…

That’s a good point...we didn’t even start getting changing tables in my area until about 10 years ago.  I assume parents managed to change diapers before then.

Never doubt someone else’s capacity to do something that lowers the bar for civilization. 

Thank you. If I were a health inspector I would’ve given the restauranteur a heavy fine. Not shutting down the business (unless this has happened before) but enough to send a warning that this literal shit ain’t right. 

I felt compelled to write a little note to you just so I can get a different perspective on this nasty situation.

Hi! Parent here.

I think I agree, but we both know if this was a real letter, they are already not tipping. 

It’s not just the odor that travels.

This is perfect except it’s missing one important element, the part where they try to get out of tipping.

I once worked in a (not fancy but not fast food) restaurant where a large party not only left a poopy pampers disposable diaper on the floor next to the table, but then proceeded to “tip” me with one of those fake $20 bills with “god loves you” printed for you to see when you unfolded it, also revealing your $0 tip.

People are so entitled, though.  You don’t even know.  You’re never sure who’s going to throw a fit.  The other day I had a lady lose her shit because I implied that she, a customer, shouldn’t be reaching into our cookie jar with her bare hands.  Didn’t even outright tell her.  I just said “you reached in there with…

Someone needs to fund a project where they hire Patrick Stewart to read all of the Jean-Luc Picard memes as if he means them.

Does the restaurant have a public bathroom?

Change the kid’s diaper in there

Does the restaurant not have a public bathroom?

Ask to use the employee bathroom to change the diaper, or change it outside

Do NOT change an excrement-filled diaper in the same room where people have to eat!

Nope. This is one where the restaurant needs to put a full stop to it right away. This is absolutely a health code violation. Not to mention the loss of appetite of smelling some kids nasty diaper while you’re trying to eat.
