What gets me is these places letting people sit there for hours stuffing themselves. You would like to think that there would be a reasonable time limit such as an hour or so and then you can, politely at first, ask such people to leave. I guess it should not surprise me as how both greedy and overall rude that many people are nowadays.

Its not greedy or rude and to be expected when offering all you can eat or buffets. It always has been everywhere.

A persons stomach is only so big and can only process so much in a days time. Most of these people in these situations absolutely dont eat only shrimp. Buffets and all you can eat know that other than a few young men nobody is going to stick to the pricey items. Women in particular fill themselves with cheap carbs like bread and noodles.

The problem comes in when people are “sharing plates” at buffets or all you can eat situations. This is made even worse by those bringing in suitcase size purses lined with plastic trash bags to cart home . Even places selling comparatively cheap fried chicken can go bust quickly when this is allowed.

“Sharing” at a buffet and smuggling food out are forms of theft and will normally get one kicked out and at least here one can be arrested. There was no reason to have ever allowed either.

Of course there were obviously other issues going on with pricing, the number of days, etc but it wasnt time sitting that caused a problem.
