strange, i dont see em around here. the only place ive seen a tip jar is at a pizza place here where theres not true waiters, you pay, get your plate and glass, get your drink sit down, and the 'waiters' walk around to each table with a pizza that just came out of the oven. so thats the only place i know of that a tip jar fits in.

 

Good point

 

I just ignore them. I'm not going to stand in line for my food, wait on myself and then pay someone else for that priviledge.

 

 

Nasty, I sweat to God man (well let me rephrase, if I believed in a God, I would swear) I was writing my previous thread, wifey was standing behind tapping her foot saying "lets go" (cuz we were heading out) and that's exactly what she said.... Don't take any wooden nickels.

Kinda freaky how you posted it right after.
