Why should I care if you feel good about yourself? If anything I should tip the cook, all you did was put the food he cooked in take out containers, grab napkin and cutlery, bag it and hand it to me?

Not true. At the place I work, I do it all. I wait, cook and clean. (Unless its a weekend night, but I don't like working those.) Just food for thought. :)
 
Service jobs are more often than not thankless jobs .....people that haven't had them don't realize how many times you have to deal with P.Odd customers...it's daily mostly.... with little or no reason to be p.o.ed.... except they are in a foul mood....it really sucks ,getting a crappy tip or none at all from some dingleberry with no common sense and a bone to pick with life in general:)
 
Lol....he said dingleberry.

I've cooked and prepped at a Japanese joint before. Also bussed tables and washed dishes at another place. I still feel the same way about tipping. It's no secret I don't like the concept of tipping if you've been around here long enough but don't assume I'm any of those things you said just because I feel that way.

And why is it only tipped jobs that people feel sorry for? I worked my ass off at many places that provide services to other people without a thank you from the customers. Why do servers in the food industry get more compassion?

Why don't people just ask for an explanation from people who feel like I do about tipping instead of jumping the gun with name calling and things like that? Not that I'm necessarily directing this to you, but just in general

LOL, I would love to eat out with you, sumo!!! it would be a laff a minute. I'd videeeo you.

well, eating with me would be no different from eating with anyone else that's polite. I don't treat servers like slaves or demand things like I'm royalty. I always smile and say "yes please" or "thank you" or "the food's great" even though it's not. only difference with me and the majority is when it's time to pay the bill I don't tip much. and when I say "much" i'm saying that it's not much compared to what's considered the norm. personally I think whatever I give is more than enough and they should be thankful they got anything quite frankly
