When you go out and dine, how do you react when you go to a restaurant and some of the employees of the restaurant sing Happy Birthday to another restaurant patron.

I smile lovingly at the recipient of that honor and I clap when they are finished. I think it's sweet.

If they are sitting close to my table, I join in singing with them. If I leave before the birthday person, I tell them happy birthday when I am leaving the restaurant.

I just keep on with the conversation I was having with my dining partner, and pretend I don't hear them.

I depends on my mood. If they're right by me, I'll watch and then clap. If I'm further away, I just keep talking and eating and maybe clap just to add to the celebration.

You know what? Inwardly, I cringe for the victim, for the lucky birthday boy or the birthday girl. We do NOT sing Happy Birthday for the person celebrating their birthday; we sing happy birthday for that person's friends. It is because they want the satisfaction of having made a proper to-do for their friend or loved one.
I would NEVER want the birthday song sung for me, but if other patrons request the birthday song treatment, for power to them.

I smile and feel happy that someone is celebrating their birthday and having a good time.
Then I look forward to when it will be my birthday and they will sing for me.

I like to try and hit the Birthday person in the head with a Dinner Roll. If, it a woman, I butter it first for her.
