Printable everybody should wait tables once in their lives - it's a tough job. former or current waiters/waitresses are the best tippers. | |

I can see you doing the funny stories thing, driving around all day.
"I had Anx in the front of my cab the other day..." (That actually sounds like a fantastic idea... I should learn to drive...  )
[Edited 9/16/06 6:12am] no, i've never been a cabbie, but i've been on too many cab rides with friends for whom i had tons of respect until i witnessed how they treated cab drivers. that shit just isn't acceptable. [Edited 9/16/06 9:43am] Its the same with how people treat waiters, shop assistants, anyone... its long been said that this is a great way to judge a potential/new date! And I agree - yes, we all have our off days, but theres no excuse for the way some people speak to service staff. | |

And I agree - yes, we all have our off days, but theres no excuse for the way some people speak to service staff. agreed. i mean, just today on my work break, i got HORRIBLE service when i went out to buy some clothes. the cashier just wadded up my clothes and stashed them in the bag like we were at a garage sale! plus, she was engrossed in some conversation on her headset, which i wouldn't doubt she had hooked up to her cell phone instead of whatever store walkie talkie system they have. i didn't say a word. when she finished, i took out all my purchases and folded them. miss thing just walked off until i was done. i didn't say anything to her, but i will be complaining to the store. and princess's name is on the receipt. all i care about is that this isn't the standard by which i can expect to be treated at this store. a coupon would be nice, too.  | |

Oh, I should point out that I always tip - even if service is included in the prices. I just wouldn't knowingly eat any place where the waiting staff had to rely on tips. I'm also likely to tip more if service staff look downtrodden, harrassed or suicidal. | |
