Antidote for restaurant rage

The scenario:  You ordered dressing on the side!  Water with NO ice!  Dammit are these people stupid!?!.  If this sounds like you or someone you know,  please continue reading.

If you don't already know that your thoughts only affect you.  Read this article first. 

Now, since we already established that your thoughts only affect you, here is the antidote for restaurant rage.

First, at the very least have a sense of thankfulness and gratefulness that you even have food in the first place.  Secondly,  order food with a sense of it being a request and/or a suggestion.  I WOULD like greenbeans, I would like my dressing on the side, I would like water with no ice etc.  What ever ACTUALLY arrives may be a WHOLE different reality.  Be ok with that before hand.  Thirdly, enjoy the surprise that comes to your table.  Surprise!  It came exactly as you wished or suprise!, a different dish came instead.  Having this mindset always helps to make for a pleasant meal with good company.  No one wants to eat with a complainer who is mean to the waitstaff. 

To your health,
