Please don’t sweep at my table!

Today during lunch, I’m happily enjoying the wonderful orange chicken I had ordered, when I notice an employee sweeping throughout the restaurant. Now, I don’t have a problem with them sweeping up after people who are sloppy and don’t know what a trashcan is, but when they come up to my table and start sweeping around where I’m eating, that’s where I draw the line. It’s just plain gross.

With all my irritation boiling inside me, I took a deep breath and said in as pleasant a voice as I could muster, “Could you please not sweep around my table while I’m eating?” She walked away and swept near someone else’s table. I got some strange looks from the people around me, but too bad. I don’t want other peoples crap flying through the air into my food. Is that too much to ask? Ugh.
