Could This Be the End of Wait Staff?

A time where a meal was just a meal

A time when we ate socially sans TV’s & cell phones

A time when wait staff could add up meals

electronically

Now: Dine, pay, & dash (with a little entertainment thrown in)

Why are tabletop interactive computer screens appealing?

Where are these devices & what’s on them?

What’s the trend?

Is this working so far?

What about the interaction between wait staff & customer?

Do we even need to tip the wait staff? How

much?
