Restaurant mental health code violations

Paul Simms lists various violations of a hypothetical restaurant mental health code. A couple of favorites:

Solo diner blows out table candle to avoid accidentally setting his newspaper on fire, only to have it relit repeatedly by busboy.

Member of all-white waitstaff barks at member of all-Hispanic busboy staff in way that makes customers feel like those who just stood by and watched in Vichy France.
