      Yeah, but not on the degrading basis of service workers having to explain why they work. If you want to start a conversation you can ask if they have anything planned for the day. Still intruding and rude but at least not condescending.

      I mean you do see a difference in starting a conversation on equal level or from up on a high horse, right?

        I see sense in that but (un?)fortunately I’m incapable of starting conversations IRL usually. Also I am a rare visitor at restaurants or cafés, so that doesn’t help either

          I mean no worries, restaurant are there for you to eat, not to talk to people, there are other businesses for that.
