A couple of years ago I flew to Ohio to visit In-Laws. On my return, I'm sitting in a bar in the Columbus airport, ordered a Bloody Mary. Bartendress slides me the drink and I asked for a straw. She goes all Katy Couric Perky, and with a big smile says "Here at the Columbus Airport we're going Green to Save the Planet!" I said "Yeah, I can see where 4 inches of plastic, which could be re-cycled, would be so much worse than burning the half million pounds of Jet-A since this conversation started."

She turned off the Perky.

I slid he tip back into my pocket.

So you didn’t tip her because of a decision made so far over her head she had no idea who made it? Or was it her cheerfulness that pissed you off? Either way, you’re a jerk.
