...food service workers reported a massive uptick in rude customer behavior that appears to have persisted long after the pandemic subsided.

Strange coincidence. I have noticed a massive uptick in rude food service worker behavior, mostly among the young and entitled set. I don't get upset, and I don't bother to talk to the manager, because the manager was tolerating that employee behavior to begin with. I just don't go back, ever.

Yep. A whole generation of people who were never taught manners or respect.
