About the only thing I didn’t like is his cavalier attitude about the tips.
I’m hoping he’s giving more than $5 daily as tips! I like to tip more than that going out to eat.
While he’s correct about the staff liking the tips, I do it more because I consider it a part of ‘Pay It Forward,’ for the fine service. I also happen to like giving working folks a reason to smile! I consider it an opportunity to thank the Lord God for my life and His Mercy to me with the blessings he bestowed on me when I didn’t deserve it.
Tipping is something I always do when the help warrants it.
When you get some kid that can’t do enough to make sure you’re getting the best treatment possible, you make sure he gets a great tip.
On the other hand, there’s the type that ignores you once you’re seated... they get treated appropriately as well.
