Scenario 3: the person finishes up their meal quickly allowing the other person who is waiting for the table to have it.
Asking someone for a favor isn't stressing someone. If that actually does stress them then they have worse problems than being asked to finish their meal quickly.
Be excellent with each other. The world will be a much better place if we all try to practice that.
Let others enjoy their meal at peace. Asking someone to "hurry up" is not a favour and extremely rude.
If she wanted to ask for a favour, it should go something like this: "Sorry to interrupt, are you nearly finished? Could we have your seat if you are done?" And then patiently wait however long it takes for them to finish.
How does this defend the person that was being rude lol
Asking for a favor is not being rude (assuming if it's been asked nicely). Especially if you're hogging a shared resource that's in limited supply (seating).
It was not. That's the problem, and it's the reason for OP's reaction.
