Serving, in a multiple of ways and various shapes and forms can be a humbling experience. I currently spend my time serving other people food. The fact is in America servers make their base pay from their tips. Rely on them really. So, for instance, when someone tips .80 cents they might have well just spit me in the face. A huge slobbery loogie.
So, people of America, do you not think that the people serving you food have more brain cells that could be of use, rather than asking whether you want that medium or medium rare. More skills, other experiences, they have aspirations and goals. Making sure things can be as enjoyable as possible and you choose to "reward" that service essentially, with .80 cents. Don't go out to eat if you can tip less than a dollar. A little word of advice from me to you.
But, I understand tipping has become less of a reward for good service and more an expected gesture. Which, i agree is bs. But anyway....
At work the other day, serving some old lady. And really, I mean old. As I offered her more water she paid me a compliment. "Honey, you have nice legs. I wish I had legs like that." Not sure what this means coming from an old lady, but it made me smile. So thanks old lady, and thanks mom and dad for the legs. Appreciate it.
