If, and only if the restaurant is not busy, requesting a better table is okay. I actually had a lady ask me why, when there is no one there, she always gets seated in the back of the restaurant. At the time, there were only two servers on the floor, and one was in the front and the other in the back. Of course, she didn't want to sit in either section, and had to go to three different tables before she found one she wanted. When I tried to explain to her the concept of bringing waiters on in stages, she looked at me like I had lost my mind. "Well why don't you just have them all come at the same time so that people can sit wherever they want and not have to worry about there being a waiter in that area?"

Thankfully, I don't have to work this afternoon.
