When I scoffed at my gradmother for giving an overly generous tip at lunch she always said that we needed to be a blessing to others. So, I try as often as possible to be a blessing to others when I tip, after all, most of waiters and bartenders income is in the form of tips.
This only comes to light when the Assistant General Manager of the hotel I work at gave me a lecture about tipping the pizza delivery guy $15 instead of $5. So I told him that there was ten feet of snow and he was the only one delivering so I thought he deserved such a generous tip. I can't say that I didn't know something like that was going to happen, I knew that giving out the company's money like that would not be looked upon favorly, considering they are cutting back everyone's hours to 35...or so they tell us.
How am I supposed to live on 35 hours a week? The extra time off would be nice if I were getting paid more to make up the difference. So I need to be making...$12.55 an hour. Eh, that's would be just fine with me...if it were possible. Cheap ass.
I guess I just have to go into survival mode. No nights out...and less Chipotle...on the plus side, I might lose some weight. haha.
