What if the service/food was crappy? Still feel obligated to tip?
I'm trying to understand why servers get paid well below min. wage in the first place. Isn't that against the law or something? If not...it should be.
Let's say that even if a server makes min. wage and still rakes in the 15% (maybe more?) then there should be plenty to go around when the rest of the staff gets their cut.
No one should have to rely on their tips to make ends meet.
And in other related news, check this little scenerio out:
Waiters and waitresses are up in arms over a restaurant receipt posted on Reddit, for which a customer used her status as a single parent to avoid leaving a tip.
The $138.35 was paid with a Visa credit card but, in the space for a gratuity, someone simply wrote, "single mom sorry." And, at the bottom of the bill, a compliment: "Thank you it was great."

Dang...
Unless one wins the lotto, $135.35 could have gone to groceries.
Have you not heard from the written word of this strange phenomenon of the truly absurd? From the pin-heads to the degenerate to the moronic too, they know what is best for me and you. Asses from day one, enemy of the Sun, they know just who should be the chosen one. Cowards by day, goose gobblers by night. There knowledge of the world is truly a fright. Afraid to take a stand, they crawl on their knees. They traded freedom for votes as quick as you please.
BOULDER, Colorado—Dressed in a sports jacket, a faded peace-symbol T-shirt and blue jeans, the Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson was playing to a rapturous overflow crowd at the University of Colorado. The man who could be the Ralph Nader of 2012 beguiled his largely male, mostly student audience with his views on the second-biggest issue on the Colorado ballot this year: Amendment 64, which would legalize marijuana.
“I’m the only candidate running for president of the United States who wants to end the drug war now,” Johnson, a former Republican governor of New Mexico, said Monday night to cheers. “Colorado has the opportunity to change worldwide drug policy by voting for Issue 64.”
But it’s not blowing smoke to believe that Johnson could corral enough support from tepidly pro-Obama younger voters to make an electoral difference in a state as evenly divided as Colorado. Confronting the curse that haunts all third-party candidates, Johnson stressed to his supporters that they’re not disenfranchising themselves by voting him. “Wasting your vote is voting for someone you don’t believe in,” Johnson said Monday night as his acolytes demonstrated a libertarian disdain for fire-marshal rules about blocking the aisles in the college auditorium where he spoke.
Yes Disturbed and Omega have a way with animals. The GLP training center makes sure all mods know how to sex up farm animals. Trinity wants everyone on the same page. Some say Ducky supports GLP & Lop as they are big on the Christian ethic and have special ways to care for the animals.
It wouldn't surprise me as Ducky named herself after a animal.
Another Anti-Gay GOP Candidate Exposed As Pedophile, Indicted On 113 Charges Opportunistic asswipes of the GOP don't care who they run for office as long as that person can successfully regurgitate the hateful talking points memos required by their bigotted religious base.
It's almost a cliche at this point: Conservative candidate declares how much he hates "The Gay" as a way to prove just how much of a family man he his. Family values are important, don'tcha know? Vote for me! I hate gays and I believe in protecting our children!
So he can molest them, instead.
Such is the story of Eric Bodenweiser, front runner for State Senator in Delware. Via Washington Blade:
The indictment includes 113 felony sex charges, including 39 counts of unlawful sexual intercourse – first-degree and 74 counts of unlawful sexual contact – second-degree. Although the indictment doesn't identify the gender of the victim, the Gape Gazette identified the victim as a boy who allegedly was sexually abused by Bodenweiser between Oct. 1, 1987 and Aug. 31, 1990 when he was between the ages of 10 and 13.
The real story here isn't that the GOP has yet another pedophile in its ranks, the Democratic Party has had some as well. The take away from this is the artificial nature of the GOP's opposition to homosexuality. It seems that every other week, another secretly gay Republican comes tumbling out of the closet or another "pro-family" right winger turns out to be a sexual predator.
This is a clear indication that the GOP demands conformity on this issue regardless of how the candidate or elected official actually feels. The idea that a pedophile can look at homosexuality and declare that being gay is a threat to children is laughable. That a gay politician must vocally condemn his own sexual preference while hiding it from the public is sad beyond words.
In both cases, it is absolutely mandatory to follow the party line. This quashing of dissent or reasonable discourse reveals that the GOP's "hatred" of homosexuals is nothing but a political ploy to enrage religious bigots. They don't really care about sexual orientation outside of the votes such intolerance can get them.
The fact that conservatives constantly (and 100% falsely) seek to tie homosexuality to pedophilia is more proof that the goal is to whip up hatred for crass political gain. Pedophilia is universally despised (outside of actual pedophiles) so what better vehicle to deliver misplaced loathing to a gullible electorate?
Is there anything more grotesque than advocating a hatred not personally felt, demonizing millions of innocent citizens and creating an atmosphere in which homosexuals are bullied to death and killed outright for nothing more than a politician's need to stay in power?
