So some of you have seen this as well....

It's funny. When I was stationed in Okinawa in the early 80's, I was told that you are NOT supposed to tip servers/waitresses. It was considered an insult to them. It was as though you were saying "you are NOT doing a good enough job so youmust not be getting paid well. Here's a little extra to help you out!"

Wish these people over here felt that way. I've been to too many restaurants where the waitress acted as though waiting on me and my wife was the last place on earth they wanted to be at. Or that for some reason they wanted to take out their lousy existence on my wife and I.

What about you?
