Re-Instate Smith-Mundt! User ID: 52929264 United States 01/26/2023 02:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | (LOL) I was at the other end of the spectrum and appreciated every nickel! In one of my jobs I worked in a small-town cafe, and one of my customers would put some money on the table as soon as he was seated. As the meal progressed, he would subtract money from the pile if there were things which had annoyed him (like not keeping his coffee cup filled) or housekeeping items (the maple syrup dispenser was nearly out of syrup). Or he might add to it if he were pleased with the food and the service. Needless to say, everyone who worked there knew who this guy was so when he came in he was given the VIP treatment. And it was good education for us! "I have come to the conclusion that all news should be treated like 9/11, assume it is a psyop with actors participating in a staged event complete with props, until proven otherwise, in which case assume whatever is being recorded, reported, televised, is distortions/lying by omission/outright lies, until proven otherwise." - Anonymous, 4-13-12 |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 84423428 United States 01/26/2023 02:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I love tipping. I tip everyone. I give my change to the homeless guy at the grocery. I buy a candy bar for the girl / guy at checkout. I got out of a ticket by making a "donation" to a cop for $20... didn't ask him for anyghing, just gave him my paperwork and a $20. He looked at me weird and handed it back, I refused and said it was a donation to the police force to be used as necessary. lol. That was a bit of a risk. Anyway, I tip before anyone asks. I always give chocolates to the workers at my favorite restaurant. I always get unreal service. People all know and like me. The funny thing is that I like them too. It's cool. |

Yeah I don't eat out very much at all but when I have I always felt some sort of tip was deserved unless of course the service was just terrible, thankfully that wasn't too often...lol PLATA BITCHEZZZZZZ UPGRADE UNAVAILABLE The Rolling Stones said it best...

Anonymous Coward User ID: 83959966 United States 01/26/2023 03:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I try to just avoid using services that expect tip. When I do I tip pretty big because I feel bad for how utterly broke they must be working X job. Sometimes if I get bad service I don’t tip and I don’t tip at Japanese restaurants because Japanese don’t tip. I really hate the idea of a tip in general. Japan has the right idea. |

User ID: 79020954 United States 01/26/2023 03:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have always tipped VERY WELL, when appropriate. To the point of if your service was THAT good, or if you were pretty good and I see some asshole didn't tip you at all, the tip may be more than my bill. What annoys me is something like ordering food that I am going to go pick up, and the only option for tipping is in advance. Really? A machine took my order, and you are asking me to tip 'the cook's before I know if they even cooked my food? I'd be happy to tip them once I've been able to verify they executed the service I'm asking for (aka... once I can make sure my food isn't burnt. Or, that my French fries aren't still frozen). In the simplest form it's gone too far |
