Rain

It may also start to rain at some point on a patio because of its outdoor location. Do not ask your server to “do something” about the rain either, as they are fairly powerless over that force of nature as well. If it begins to rain, but you are seated under an umbrella, do not tell your server that you do not want to move inside because of the rain. Do not suggest that because you are seated under an umbrella and staying dry, that they should continue to come outside and get soaking wet in the pissing rain to serve you. Your server will likely not see the "fun" side of you dining in the rain.
