Some people only seem to be comfortable if they’ve started a conversation with the waiters first (i.e other than “hi, are you ready to order?”). Americans especially! For these people, talkin in depth with strangers is a competitive sport.
In the US, so many people don’t have friends/lives/community. They just sleep and work (because no one here gets any time off). So, naturally, you learn to make conversation with strangers.

Different cultures then. I’m there to eat not to talk.
