You’ve heard the saying “Tipping is not just a city in China.” Guess what it really isn’t. There is no city in China called Tipping. I have been called frugal at times, by more than one person. I like to hang on to my money and there is nothing wrong with that. I do however tip well (at least 20% for a meal, not as much for just beers), I get embarrassed when I go out with someone and I offer to pick up the check and they offer to leave the tip and they don’t tip well, leaving only 10% or so. I guess if you are getting good service and service with a smile, drinks topped off, and the little glimpse into the life of the person serving you, it’s gotta be worth something, right. I have been out with people that pull the tip card out of their wallet to figure out the tip. How hard is it to figure out a tip? Move the decimal point over to the left one, if you have a $23.45 bill and you want to leave a 10% tip it is $2.35, a 20% tip is $4.70, the ten percent tip doubled, and for a 15% tip spilt the difference. Not rocket science, its rent, a car payment, groceries, etc. BTW a new study shows that men, Republicans, and residents of the northeast are the best tippers. How good a tipper are you?
