I don't honestly think (hope) anyone here is that insensitive, it just that tipping before hand (of service or an inspection of pick-up order, lol) is prudent.

Tip jars lend to an assumption that really does more harm than good in my experience, and I was one of those servers in my day. Kharma, respect, and tips for that matter, are earned, not given.

Anyhoo, sometimes we just need to vent! Thinking of/with ya Floyd ! :rock:

His rant in that clip sounds like George Carlin wrote it.. :yes:
Yes !

With a little Sam Kinison (RIP) tossed in!
 
The problem is the low wages US employers get away with paying workers. The only 'tip' jars we have here in fast food shops are charity collection boxes. The Aussie minimum wage is $16.87 AUD per hour - sure beats $7 USD!
Higher cost of living here though! :-)

Isn't Obama trying to change that to $12 or similar? About time. Not much better here @ $10.70 or about $8.50 US


"The really sad reality now is that service jobs that are often only part time are the only stable long term employment now for grads that paid +$100,000 for their certificate, only to be faced with greedy jack-boot CEO's that think unpaid internships with no guarantee of future employment are the next best thing in bleeding the employee until there is nothing left "

And why do we never boot them (Right wing functioning phsycopath types) to the curb ? Same shiatt , different pile here !
