The young waiter is rude to the old man because he wants to go home to his wife. The young waiter says to the old man‚ "You should have killed yourself last week?" (from the book). The young waiter is very judgmental

Being old is a concept formed by those not yet affected.

The story "A Clean‚ Well-Lighted Place" by Earnest Hemingway‚ in my opinion‚ is a story about a mans loneliness. The story starts out in an empty café‚ very late at night. Even the setting symbolizes gloominess. There are two waiters one old‚ one young. The older waiter is lonly‚ and the young waiter has a wife.
