I work in a restaurant in Halifax, and sometimes wind up closing up shop. I'm the kind of person who can enjoy a meal at 8pm or even 9pm on occasion, and the restaurants in Halifax are usually very accommodating by being open till 10pm. BUT. Some people seem to find that it is okay to sit in a restaurant long after close, and make the staff stand around waiting for them while they do nothing but talk about things that no one else in the world cares about, and savour their wine... One might argue that they are helping the staff stick around so they can earn more money. NOT the case. Just a note to all people who like eating late. If you're the last ones in the restaurant and the doors are locked, you should probably leave. There's at least three people resenting your very existence. —Justin
