Re: Tipping... Being from the restaurant industry, I know the importance of tipping. A server depends on those tips for survival, as they usually don't make more than min. wage. That being said... I tip according to service. If you are eating at Denny's, you probably won't get as good of service like you would paying $50 a plate. Level of training. So you have to be reasonable in your expectations. I have left 2 pennies to the waitress who finally brought my drink with my togo box. I also refused to pay for that ice-tea!! I have left no tip for poor service and lousy food. The basic formula is 15%-20% of the price of FOOD. Lots of places include bar tab or bottle of wine, and then expect you to tip on that total. There are lots of tricks to jack up the tip!! If you get good service- reward it. If not- Fuck 'em. Peace

One of my favorite tipping stories was the tip Goobler left at the bar when some smart ass shit talker said he'd double whatever Goobs left. How much did you plunk down, Goobs? I'm too lazy to look for the thread but it was a great story.

any reason?
I ususally dont get out of the office/warehouse until 8-9 on the days I go home
the kids are sleeping and its just easier to go get food at a pub and have a few pints
