Touchy subject for me... tips pays the bills at my house. Women, please don't flame me... but men are better tippers. I think it's because women usually do the job at home for free [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Snow

Snow, from the other side of the table, let me tell you that I often urge my husband to throw a couple more bucks on the table, and I've seen my mom and other women give their husbands the same nudge-- so don't be so quick to write us off!

Ooops, I really meant "server". There are no waiters and waitresses anymore, are there?<p>Snowwhite,<p>In our family I am MUCH the bigger tipper. If I tip too much W will sometimes pick it up. I have to run back after we walk out the door to restore the proper tip. I'm finding my tips are going up with age... maybe I no longer worry about having enough money. I used to wash dishes, so I understand the environment. Good tipping just seems to be one of those "nice" things one can do in life. I've read all of your other thread BTW. I hope you find it healing.<p>Cali, Personal problem? Me, or him? He could probably tell I was wondering whether the adjacent female server was exhibiting thong lines under her slacks. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif" border="0[/img] [img]images/icons/shocked.gif" border="0[/img] [img]images/icons/shocked.gif" border="0[/img] <p>(please remember, this is a lighter side thread [img]images/icons/tongue.gif" border="0[/img] )<p>Jeffers

Okay, okay... I did not say ALL women. I myself have always been a good tipper. My mom, too. And many of my female friends. BUT... even I tip based on the type of service I receive. It's always 15%. If the service is GREAT, it's more like 20%. If the server is cute, wearing a thong... hmm... doesn't affect my tip, but I may linger over my after dinner coffee [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Snow<p>PS Jeffers, thanks for the support.<p>[ February 10, 2002: Message edited by: Snowwhite ]</p>

Cali,<p>I knew you were teasing. [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] <p>I was referring to my comment. It didn't look "light". But, then my comment on my comment looked weird, too. I was going to go back and edit it but I hate to do that after someone may have seen the original.... Just gives me another chance to respond [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif" border="0[/img] <p>margue, That one has my vote, too.<p>to anyone:<p>Why is it that the servers will always run up and ask you how things are when your mouth is full????<p>And then, when you're ready to get the check and leave, they've vanished???<p>Jeffers

Here's another tidbit.<p>If I go to a 'nicer' resaurant I always ask the server which entrees they prefer. Usually I pick one of the ones they recommend, then tell them how good a choice it was (cuz it usually is).<p>Jeffers

Two meals a day, five or six days a week, we know what's good. Or at least what we can tolerate eating month after month...
