Holiday Tipping


Panthro

Recommended Posts

The weird letters were more off putting than anything.

Yeah I don't like being told to tip. But unfortunately some people think that they don't ever need to tip anyone so a friendly reminder is necessary. Maybe they thought a letter was less brash than an envelope with just "gratuity" written on it.

Of course I haven't seen said letter in order to draw a proper opinion.

Tip anyone that provides a service. Some of you are some cheap fugs.

Not cheap at all.

I just don't understand tipping a plummer when he already has his profit built into the quote.

Would you tip your real estate broker, even after they had just received a 5K check from helping you buy a home?

Where does it stop....or does it?

Pizza delivery guy...absolutely.....hair person....sure...garbage man...probably not.

Go out of the way and roll my can back up to my house, and I will re think that, however I have to pick it up off of it's side every Wednesday when I get home from work.

I agree..servers, bartenders..valet..of course..but I'm sorry, I'm not going to tip people that I have no idea who they are

garbage men? really??

I think it is just a neighborhood thing. You put an envelope on the can. Maybe the recycling too.

Generally I am with you though I want preferential treatment for my tip. At my local pub overseas the barman would have my carlsberg poured before I could get to him even if there were 5 people waiting. THAT is what a good tipper should get.

I doubt the garbageman remembers a good tip but i consider it a good holiday act.

Garbage trucks here have mechanical arms that pick up the can and dump it. If I put a tip on it it'd just be dumped in the truck.

Not that I'd tip someone for driving slowly down my street while a machine picks up things.

The garbagemen pay special attention the last pickup before Christmas.

These garbagemen aren't dumb

exactly! And i'm not implying that they're not doing actual work ...I'm just saying, I'm not going to tip them.

Brokers, plumbers, those are different. Sure, technically it's a service, but it's a contract service. I was speaking more towards service and delivery industry. Retaurant/bar staff, hair people, delivery people of all sorts, cleaners, house keepers. Those types.

    • If Henderson just got a concussion and will possibly/probably now miss next week as well, gotta think missing 2 games of stats at this point of the year might knock him out as he was only just entering the discussion the last few weeks anyways.  Same goes for Judkins going down today too, and Dart's god awful game likely removes him from the conversation as well. It will be interesting to see how the voters compare T-Mac and Egbuka if they end up with stats that are nearly identical. Egbuka burst onto the scene and put up the bulk of his stats early in the year when Baker was playing like the MVP front runner.  While T-Mac was just more consistent throughout the course of the full season (ex. Egbuka has 8 games of 42 yards or less, T-Mac has 4 of them, while T-Mac still scored 3 TDs in those 4 games, where Egbuka only scored 1 TD in his 8). It would be a shame if they put too much weight on the final game of the season if that ends up being the division decider, as I think T-Mac has had the better SEASON while Egbuka had a better peak output during that first month or so but way cooled off since. Maybe Warren goes off in the last 3 games (they still play tomorrow), but it does seem to be down to T-Mac and Egbuka right now.
    • Mitchell Evan’s put a block on someone that he drove them all the way out of bounds and to the bench. He absolutely destroyed the guy. He’s gonna be a beast for us if he keeps that up.
    • Yall... stop taking a sample size and projecting a role player into a permanent starter cuz he had a decent year after what, 5? Come on
