so far, i have just let jordan take care of all these matters, but i guess i should learn.

General rule is 15-20% depending on how much you liked the service. I like 20% because that boils down to "$1 per $5". I also tip $1 per drink when I'm out at a bar.

HI DERE, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:26 (fifteen years ago) link

No, the general rule is do not tip and only go to each place once.

Upt0eleven, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:27 (fifteen years ago) link

oh btw 9 yrs of marriage today ^_^

HI DERE, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:34 (fifteen years ago) link

Seriously, is what I am not being. Listen to Dan.

AND WOW CONGRATUMALATIONS.

Upt0eleven, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:36 (fifteen years ago) link

I, like Dan err on the generous side. Also 20% is easy especially when looking at the menu and working out how much you are really going to spend (I think in terms of 30% once the tax is factored in, OK so not many places have a sales tax that high but 30 is easy).

Congratulations, Dan.

Ed, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:39 (fifteen years ago) link

Oh, and always tip in cash even if you are paying by card.

Ed, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:40 (fifteen years ago) link

congrats, dan!!!!

i end up overtipping a lot because i start freaking out about undertipping!

tehresa, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:42 (fifteen years ago) link

it just feels like a very high pressure situation, this whole tipping business.

congratulations, mr and mrs perry!

Rubyredd, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:50 (fifteen years ago) link

I'd rather overtip than undertip, so that is the direction I lean.

(apparently not at coffeeshops, however)

Congrats on 9 years, Dan! That's awesome! Are you going out to celebrate?

Sara R-C, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:55 (fifteen years ago) link

I know that I have become acclimatised:

This morning at the Deli I asked where the tip jar was.

Ed, Thursday, 21 August 2008 17:07 (fifteen years ago) link

really, at the deli!?

tehresa, Thursday, 21 August 2008 17:10 (fifteen years ago) link

We're going to a pretty decent Italian place around the corner from my office.

HI DERE, Thursday, 21 August 2008 17:13 (fifteen years ago) link

Ed, you're showing us all up.

Mmmmm, Italian sounds good. Have fun!

Sara R-C, Thursday, 21 August 2008 17:14 (fifteen years ago) link

Yay the Dan!

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 August 2008 17:31 (fifteen years ago) link

Hey, yay J031, too!

Sara R-C, Thursday, 21 August 2008 19:22 (fifteen years ago) link

Yay them all.

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 August 2008 19:23 (fifteen years ago) link

HI DERE, Thursday, 21 August 2008 20:57 (fifteen years ago) link

And in the darkness bind them?

WHY IS THAT STILL STUCK IN MY HEAD IT'S BEEN 20 YEARS PEOPLE

Sara R-C, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:05 (fifteen years ago) link

tehresa, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:06 (fifteen years ago) link

HI DERE, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:08 (fifteen years ago) link

N A PERFECT WORLD

HI DERE, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:08 (fifteen years ago) link

oh lol googling

tehresa, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:14 (fifteen years ago) link

Ironically, the guy who was perpetually reciting that to me was, like me, raised Catholic.

Sara R-C, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:17 (fifteen years ago) link

I am quite amused.

(I am also, as Dan might have read elsewhere, quite pleased right now. The magic words are "salary," "reclass" and "increase.")

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:29 (fifteen years ago) link

y'all may recall i have purposely avoided any and everything lotr for some time.

tehresa, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:31 (fifteen years ago) link

Sara R-C, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:57 (fifteen years ago) link

well they are following me, they are from mnpl and they appear to be friends with at least one other ilxor. but i have no idea who they are.

Rubyredd, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:59 (fifteen years ago) link

Also - did you get a raise/promotion then?

:-D

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 August 2008 21:59 (fifteen years ago) link

Yay Ned! CONGRATULATIONS!

Hmmmm, RR... sorry that I'm no help.

Sara R-C, Thursday, 21 August 2008 22:06 (fifteen years ago) link

Hooray for NED! And just the other week you were saying how you enjoy money and wanted more of it. Go buy yourself some ROCKET (*devil horns*) as greenery treat.

My new job also is better paid than my old one. And only fifteen minutes cycle from my front door.

Upt0eleven, Thursday, 21 August 2008 22:23 (fifteen years ago) link

Awesome, Nick!!!

All that arugula/rocket talk makes me want a damn salad.

Also, Dan is totally getting a copy of Pat Boone's book for Xmas.

Sara R-C, Thursday, 21 August 2008 22:43 (fifteen years ago) link

mmm rocket.

congrats, ned! and nick!

Lavado means "has 1+ frogs in it."

Abbott, Friday, 22 August 2008 00:54 (fifteen years ago) link

So J031 loves her new iPhone.

HI DERE, Friday, 22 August 2008 01:49 (fifteen years ago) link

happy anniversary<3!!!

estela, Friday, 22 August 2008 01:55 (fifteen years ago) link

Ooooh, did you give her an iPhone for your anniversary?! *swoon*

Sara R-C, Friday, 22 August 2008 01:59 (fifteen years ago) link

She stole one after Dan hacked into the security system at the nearest Apple Store. This, truly, is love.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 22 August 2008 03:24 (fifteen years ago) link

aw

tehresa, Friday, 22 August 2008 03:34 (fifteen years ago) link

love hack

estela, Friday, 22 August 2008 03:36 (fifteen years ago) link

That's the most romantic story I've ever heard.

Sara R-C, Friday, 22 August 2008 04:04 (fifteen years ago) link

gross

FAX ME, Friday, 22 August 2008 04:08 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm shocked that our ideas of romance differ. SHOCKED, I TELL YOU

Sara R-C, Friday, 22 August 2008 04:39 (fifteen years ago) link

For FAX ME, love is quantified by who most quickly cleans up the spew on the following morning.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 22 August 2008 04:52 (fifteen years ago) link

Ned OTM

Sara R-C, Friday, 22 August 2008 05:30 (fifteen years ago) link
