Welcome to the internet, stootch.

The whole wheat toast lady story made me spit coffee. . .for real.

Yeah, I did a bit of time in the upscale concierge/guest services trenches too. But at least the tips were extras and we got paid the same as FD. . .but that was many years ago. Sad to see that the shitty situation servers live in is starting to bleed over into other fields. It just says something strange about…

Do you work for Disney? Happiest Crappiest Place on Earth? Yeah. . .I perfected my fake smile working for "The Mouse". Shit pay and don't even THINK about taking a tip unless you want to be looking for another job.

Vets can't be douche bags? I must protest.

After over 10 years of working hotel desks, I wonder the same thing. . .why the flying FUCK do people expect a hotel clerk (or a server) to be a super-friendly conversationalist who constantly grins at them like a fucking maniac? When did we get to the point that getting your ego boosted became part of the process…

I work in hotels and once had someone give me a buck for a tip. I pretended I didn't realize it was a tip and promptly swapped it for quarters and handed it back with my best fake smile and friendly "Here's your change, sir!"

+1 for Dick Fungus

A tip is a gratuity. A paycheck is a contract. Your comparing the two is weak.

"My chicken BALLS!"

I'm gonna call it: There's no way this doosh is a good tipper.

I work at hotels, not restaurants, but I've seen the same thing at the connie breakfasts. . .there's always some blue-hair wanting her coffee hot enough to melt paint. You microwave it twice and then they STILL complain about cold coffee on the comment forms. What the fuck?

" And putting your bodily fluids in another person is unacceptable in literally every single context, ever, everywhere, no matter what. "

" I'm in the minority here."

" Believe it or not Craig, you can tell a story about people being cheap without being a xenophobic, religion-hating asshole. "

I second those nominations
