This is the only valid, and extenuating, argument that may be advanced in defense of the reprehensible attitude of the common wine waiter.
A really good wine waiter is, paradoxically, the guardian (and not the purveyor) of his cellar against the Visigoths.
Faced, on the one hand, with an ALWAYS exhaustible supply of his best wines, and on the other by a clientele usually equipped with inexhaustible pocketbooks, it is a wonder indeed that all wine waiters are not afflicted with chronic ambivalence.
The one way to get around them- short of knowing exactly what one wants and sticking to it- is to frequent a single establishment until its wine waiter is persuaded that one is at least as interested in wine as in spending money.
