Complete this sentence: You know you're in trouble when you approach a table and ______________________

I've talked about waiter scrutiny in a couple different blog posts and the truth of the matter is, every waiter does it to some degree. We all know what we're in for a lot of the time just by laying eyes on a table. The trick is to not let it influence your performance, because the flip side of that coin is a cliche that a lot of  waitron have had to learn the hard way: You can't judge a book by it's cover. In either case, I think this post will get some funny, and insightful replies.
