"What about reaching across a table?"
Should I have to reach in front or between customers I ask politely "May I get this plate?" or "Allow me to interrupt!" or "Kindly let me get this out of your way!" or "Forgive me for reaching over the table."
At first and foremost allow the customer to be comfortable! I never ask a guest to move out of my way so I can get - in the perfect correct manner - to his empty glass or plate. I work around the customer's needs.
