Show Notes
You’ve probably seen it. Someone talking to a server without ever looking up. Ordering, dismissing, treating the interaction like it doesn’t matter. And maybe you’ve even done it yourself on a long day.
In this conversation, Rick breaks down a moment at a restaurant that turned into a bigger realization about presence, respect, and how people experience you. From eye contact to tipping to energy, this episode isn’t about manners. It’s about how small choices signal who you are and why people remember some guests and brace themselves for others.
What Rick explores in this episode:
- Why eye contact is a form of respect
- How energy at the table sets the entire experience
- The real relationship between service and gratitude
- Why good tippers get better service
- What hospitality reveals about character
