Just a reminder to tip your bartender.

(It ends up being cheaper in the end if you visit a place regularly and tip well)
 
amen to that. We always tip very well after the first round we always get faster/better service and if we get mix drinks they are stronger the normal. So yes tip and tip well.
 
Definately! I always tip well especially as my favourite speak easy. Its nice walkin in and they already know what yer drinkin.
 
Talking about tipping, this city (Las Vegas) lives on tips. Bartenders, doormen, taxi drivers, waiters, etc, depend on them.
You go to ALL the Starbucks here and there is a little box by the register to drop in tips! Even at my local Little Ceasars for pizza PICK UPS! I know it is overdone, but in the professions listed above it is almost mandatory unless service is really bad.

i concur, tippin is always worth it in the end, whether it's a bartender or a waiter, if it's ap place you go to often, tip and tip good


Unless they give u really bad service, then THEY should expect a bad tip
 
TIP

To Insure Promptness

bad service doesnt get a Good Tip from me (Rude waitresses being bitches, that happens alot more often then it should, they get tiny tips, hopefully they learn from it)

They always get a Tip, But The service they give will sway it between 25 cents and 14% of the bill.

Actually it's "TIPS" = "To Insure Proper Service".

It sure does help, but where the hell did this one come from??


Nowhere really...I just got treated really well the other night at one of my regular spots...what should have been a ~$60 liquor bill ended up only being $25.
 
yeah, place I go to the bartender only gave me a $15 tab for something that should have been over $50 last week. She remembered me from awhile back because i wasn't drinking that night and finished all the iced tea. lol
 
tip well and keep going to the same bartender, and you will become an alcoholic for very cheap! more guys than girls hook me up (easier) just because the girl bartenders think i tip them high because i think they're hot or whatever, until i start talking to them then they just serve many drinks for free. And yes, this was probably the worst constructed sentence in english language this hour

Actually we are Both wrong.

HOWEVER these

To Insure Promptness

To Insure Performance

To Insure Prompt Service

are often Mistaken for the origin, but they are NOT.

"'Tip' is an old word, and it has nothing to do with either acronyms or the act of attempting to influence quality of service. Although the word has many meanings, both as a verb and as a noun, the use of the term as it applies to monetary rewards to servants dates to the 1700s. It first appeared in this context as a verb ("Then I, Sir, tips me the Verger with half a Crown" from the 1706 George Farquhar play The Beaux Stratagem) and was first recorded as a noun in 1755. However, the use of 'tip' to describe the act of giving something to another (where that list of possible 'somethings' could include small sums of money, intelligence on horse races, or the latest silly joke) goes back to 1610. 'Tip' slipped into the language as underworld slang, with the verb 'to tip' (meaning 'to give to or share with') being used by shady characters as part of the then-current argot of petty criminals.

Nowadays this use of 'tip' has become entirely respectable, but it is amusing that the usage began its linguistic life as tough guy jargon. One wonders if future generations will similarly discover that some of their everyday terms sprang from scenes in The Godfather or were first voiced in episodes of The Sopranos."

i work at papa john's - without tips i couldnt survive. tips are ~75 percent of my income

I get what your saying, and let me tell you, all I need is service with a smile and Im one of the best tippers I know (My Wife hates size tips I give)

BUT I have also gotten bad service and Im sory, but you get a tip to reflect the bad service.

Im not sure if its the same way out there as it is over here, but tips are taxed (I find this rediculous)
 
i have to declare them to get taxed on them. i declare like 20 dollars a night, and make around 80 at least. i am the fastest driver they have, and i always come to the door with a smile, and am polite and curteous. thats what ppl want when they get a pizza
