In my experience/opinion, service in Australia tends to be a lot more genuine, whereas in the US you get fake nice just so the waiter gets their tips

Which also means when someone is in a bad mood you really feel it.

I do vastly prefer the model in Australia of anyone being your server, rather than having a specific waiter. If your waiter goes missing in the US, it seems so silly that if you talk to another waiter, they have to go find _your specific one_ for you.
