This is corrected in Beka's books, however, since she has to deal with loads of annoying nobles (and even upper middle-class commoners) who are offended at being questioned by a member of the unwashed masses.

Part of this is because, unlike the rest of Westeros, the North doesn't practice serfdom, so the smallfolk aren't tied to the land and are free to leave a lord if they want to, so the lords have to make sure they treat them well or they'll drive off all their workers.

** After Lev is gone, Cherry daydreams about hiring a hulking, bald African-American to replace him "like Britney's guy".
** When Cherry wakes up hung-over at her family's home in Los Angeles, her mother offers to wake up their cook - at two o'clock in the morning - to make her an early breakfast.
** Despite her vital role in keeping Cherry's AlcoholInducedIdiocy secret from the public, [[BodyDouble Ann]] is well aware that the Buntermans regard her as expendable, especially after she is mistaken for Cherry and kidnapped.

# ServiceSectorStereotypes: Waiting staff are seldom members of the main cast. Most are walking plot devices, employed to highlight an aspect of a more important character's personality.

NiceToTheWaiter is a trope about how good characters treat workers nicely, while villains are nasty to them. The title only focuses on the first version, however, which makes it possible that the second version is not being being troped. This check will look at 50 wicks to determine the scope of the usage.
