3 min

Tim rants about influencers sticking phones in restaurant workers' faces, building lighting rigs for scallop photos, and imagines a cheating husband at a nearby table getting ruined by someone filming their risotto review.

In this bit6 moments
  • Tim occasionally posts restaurant photos to Instagram but notes this isn't his actual job, unlike influencers doing it constantly.
  • People are sick of the constant phone-wielding behavior that makes people act like monsters in restaurants and shops.
  • Influencers run into kitchens, film without consent, and build lighting setups at tables to photograph dishes like scallops.
  • Tim argues that while restaurants may get business from influencers, people have the right to exclude those who ruin others' dining experiences.
  • Consider that other people are in the restaurant—like a man cheating on his wife who just wants a quiet night with his secretary while you review the risotto.
  • The cheating man's life is about to fall apart, and the influencer's filming is contributing to his destruction.
