This is the inconsiderate waiter written by J. M. Barrie, narrated by Kyle Kisses. Frequently I have had to ask myself in the street for the name of the man I bowed to just now and then before I can answer, the wind of the first corner blows him from my memory. I have a theory, however, that those puzzling faces which pass before I can see who cut the coat all belong to club waiters. Until William forced his affairs upon me, that was all I did know of the private life of waiters. Though I have been in the club for 20 years, I was even unaware whether they slept downstairs or had their own homes. Nor had I the interest to inquire of other members, nor they the knowledge to inform me. I hold that this sort of people should be fed and clothed and given airing and wives and Children, and I subscribe yearly, I believe for these purposes. But to come into closer relation with waiters is bad form. They are club fittings, and Williams should have kept his distress to himself or taking it away and patched it up like a rent in one of the chairs. His inconsiderate nous has been a pair of spectacles to me for months
