A witty and gently satirical short story, The Inconsiderate Waiter by J.M. Barrie playfully critiques Victorian social conventions and the rigid divide between master and servant. Through the humorous frustrations of a self-important gentleman and his well-meaning but unconventional waiter, Barrie explores themes of class, empathy, and the absurdity of rigid decorum. Lighthearted yet thought-provoking, this charming tale showcases Barrie’s keen observational humor and storytelling finesse.
