I’m surprised that Spanish speakers would do that, because a lot of Spanish speakers work in restaurants and know how hard people have to work for their tips. But congratulations to you for tipping well!
I always think big tipping is a cheap ticket to heaven, because you’re not giving it to a bum on the street who will either drink it or put it into his veins, but you’re rewarding somebody who is working hard, taking a lot of abuse, but still doing a good job. So blessings on you!
I am not rich by any means but I have a nice home, food on the table, and my bills are paid. God has blessed me for some reason and I know wait staff work really hard and have to deal with some harsh people, so as long as they do their job I tip well.
The really good thing is so many I have come in contact with over the past years are always so pleasant that I make sure to tip really well. I always hope to make their day and also make up a little bit for those people who leave a few coins.
