Premium Member Taking Home Left Overs

A group of people 
Sit at the table
They order their drinks
Then order their meas
They chat awhile
Then order their meals
Some enjoy -others do 
not
Waitress ask them 
If finished the meals
Some say yes -others 
do not
One couple piles the food
Then they ask the person
next to them
If they want their food
Their left overs goes 
into anther box
The theme continues
Until nothing is left on
the plates
Now the boxes one by 
one now filled
These boxes filled
for one couple
People watching found it 
awful
To take food from other plates
Its embarrassing to people 
at the table
In a nice restaurant 
t is not done-yet it was
