Servers/wait staff, do you find it rude if patrons stack their plates while waiting for the check? (sh.itjust.works)

There is often very limited table space and stacking the dishes can be more about making room than server convenience.

That said, obviously don't be dumb about it. Stack dishes properly and maybe stick the utensils in a cup so they aren't at risk of falling during transport.
