You see how scared they are to let him get the ball back, it's sad to be that scared of an ''old man''.


The Bears have looked better than the others after two weeks.

Yeah, but a lot of old people scare me.

Especially when they're in packs, all shuffling around and shit.

As a member of the restaurant-working community, Sunday morning church people are the bane of my existence. Picky and demanding and bad tippers. :p :mad:

bad tippers are going to hell,so feel justified.

I tip 25% and if the service was good,up to 40%.
This is a damn hard job and a very underrated service,and people in this field should treated with RESPECT!

Athough-
I tip nothing if I get no sweet tea refills and an attitude,but the upside to that is I never go there again and tell all my friends not to go there:D

Your tipping system is very unusual to me.
I think our award wages here are generally much better...I mean if theres tipping done here, nobody really calculates it, even in upper class kinda restaurants...yep, I think out guys 'n girls are just generally better taken care of for cash.
We currently have a nationwide minimum award wage here, that's around $15.60AUD per hour (I think...last time I checked anyhows) which would be maybe $10-11 USD Per Hour?
Not saying I don't tip a couple bucks here and there if the service is good, but its nice to know that the people in our food service industry will more often than not get by without it.

As a server, I only make $3.09 per hour. The minimum wage over here is $5.15(?) per hour. So If I dont get tipped, I dont even make minimum wage. I work with lots of girls who have 3 kids at home to care for. Tipping is muy importante.

So is being a little more careful...I mean...you know what I mean, silly situation to put ones self in.

No doubt, knowing this, if ever I were to live over in the US (not that I would ever really wanna), I'd happily help out with the tip thang.
But really...what the fuck...your rates are a fucking JOKE.
I sympathise.

In the great USA,anyone in service related careers are treated like sub-humans and get paid enough that they get to live in the "working poor" class.
I complain a great deal about customer service in my town-it is atrocious,I won't lie.But a part of me understands that people like me-smiling and friendly-are RARE.
Most of the time these guys are treated with rudeness and snobbery,so I let the nasty attitudes slide until I feel like banging my head against a wall and usually tell the clerk or the waitress/waiter-"Have A Nice Day" and mean it.

And Cheeba-I have no idea what AUD means.

Yeah...it sure is a shame, and I always appreciate good servicewhen I get it...people in these positions will soon be my colleagues, and it's some small consolation to me knowing how much easier they will make ends meet in this country. It truly is a shame for you folks.
