Wait queues are increasing, politeness has went out the window, the congestion and backlogs are becoming astronomically irritating....... Today there was a half hour wait and the workers were biting off the customers heads. Unemployment rates may be low, but the problem as I see it is that everyone that wants to work has a job, but most people are like me - they don't want to work

Maybe everybody is still holding on to the dream ?
The dream of living off rising house prices ? -g-

Your experience is not surprising.

I touched on this subject a while ago: in high inflation environment a pizza or restaurant joint has only three options:
1. raise prices
2. shut down
3. lower quality of product and/or service

Obviously the place where you had breakfast is still in business, it did not raise the price, so that leaves number 3.
