More Ranting (different subject however)
Ok, I have just returned from my local bar/restaurant where along with a couple of my friends we were celebrating the end of the days exams and taking advantage of the cheap food night.
After we were done the bill came to $65 (cdn), so we threw down $70, and proceeded to get on our coats to leave. It was at this point that our waitress returned and queried the size of tip we had left her (she was of the opinion she should have recieved more).
I disagree with tipping at the best of times (sure as hell no-one ever tips me for my work - I work in a hardware store part-time), however to come up to a group of customers and ask why you didnt get a bigger tip is imho the height of bad manners. We are quite obviously college students and have very little spare cash as it is, needless to say she managed to put a decent downer on what was to be a relaxing night.
Before we left we all emptied the pennies etc. out of our wallets and left a note for her telling her that we hoped she enjoyed spending it.
