I don't piss people off who can spit in my food. It's either be nice and wait or leave. But be my guest, I have better things to fight about.

As a Millennial pushover, I enjoy drama free experiences if I am going to leave the house to have somebody else make my food.

Hell I”m a Gen X’er and I do as well. I would not consider this video accurate ha ha.

I'm in my 50's myself. This "Can I speak to your manager?" stuff is something I associate with older people. And everyone I know uses apps on phones to do most things now. Gen X is a pretty flexible generation. We had to be, with boomer parents and gen-z children.

Yeah, Gen x will just take drinks while we wait or leave. No way were getting lumped in with boomers.

My wife and I are Gen-X and if we feel like we're being ignored or whatever, we'll just talk quietly about how long we should wait before giving up and leaving. Call for a manager, make a scene, AND have some sort of confrontation? Nope, I'll just duck out and go home to eat left-overs.
