Understanding Tipping

You have a lack of CARING*** about anyone else but yourself. I am willing to pay 30% and more even, but you have to be willing to bust your ass. You sound lazy and uncaring, PERIOD!! You would care if you would be A. Willing to try to remember things by writing ALL requests down. B. Rereading and comparing the written orders or requests to any obvious errors to what you are bringing to the table even if it’s not your tip on the line, it’s your co-worker’s tip on the line, so you should care about them as well as the innocent customers you aren’t comparing the TICKETS or if you don’t know the menu, the menu even to what you are bringing out for any errors you don’t have to touch to notice the mistakes or mistake.

You sound like an uncaring mean excuse for a human being. WHO would want you to serve them acting the way you are, huh? I sure wouldn’t. I paying for the service, I want someone that gives a care about me as a HUMAN BEING, NOT just expecting money, but willing to EARN their pay or even if it’s another server, that they care about people in general to be kind enough to verify the ticket for DUH mistakes.

I’m not a waiter, Ho bag. The day I serve you or anybody except from the goodness of my heart the earth will stand still.

Since 2002, worked in an office, before that I worked a little over 2 yrs off and on during when I was taking a break from college from 1998-2002 at a donut shop/diner which we did serve regular food items like burgers, sandwiches, croissants, etc.

Yes, but first off, you sound prejudiced. I have had some good, caring wonderful servers that were black. Race means nothing honestly.

No, my husband has some hobbies at home like playing video games as one example.

NOWHERE NEAR. I am 5’0" I usually keep my weight 98lbs. I weigh myself EVERY DAY and my weight this morning was 96 and a half pounds. I wear sometimes depends on the manufacturing anywhere from a size 2 to 5 or so, depending on the manufacturing. One manufacturer said it was a zero, no way, because I am not that small, but I am not fat either. I am not even chunky even. I am a normal weight for my height.

5’ 0" 103

Just look up what a normal weight range is for a woman 5 feet zero inches tall is. I haven’t seen 103 since 1999. The biggest I have gotten was 106lbs in 1999, so I have never been chunky even in my lifetime and I only stayed that way about 6 months or so. I was 92lbs until 2009, which I was doing a yo-yo diet where I would eat less than 500 calories a day to lose the weight so I could gain it, but just as they say, it does slower your metabolism and it was causing me health issues like I saw black because of my low blood sugar that I fainted a few times. So I stopped doing that crazy diet, but I don’t eat like I do at restaurants every day. I rarely get fast food during the work week.

WHY should size matter anyways? I mean, people on my blog think I am fat. They act like I eat that much ranch and other bad foods every day of the week or something. Seriously, I don’t.

Because that’s the ONLY WAY it REALLY TASTES GOOD. I can’t help the way I love food. I eat tartar sauce with fries even at McDonald’s and also I have eaten the special sauce from the big mac with fries even. I LOVE CONDIMENTS. It tastes a MILLION TIMES BETTER than the food by itself in my opinion.

Because I FUCKING ASS ORDER*** IT SAYING EVEN ALMOST BURNT** EVEN to get the servers to fully understand put in the computer EXACTLY THAT, because I am TIRED of sending bacon back whether it was the kitchen staff’s fault that it was covered up when they did put in the order correctly or most of the time, they are too lazy to such as a few times I have had servers tell me “Oh the bacon is crispy” and I end up sending it back. I mean, SO LAZY ASS they don’t even want to put into the computer the correct things, so they think I am not going to send it back, but I do EVERY SINGLE TIME, because it is so gross to look at the white fat and soggy bacon. I can’t stand the taste.

I has nothing to do with if another customer is happy with it soggy. I has to do with that WE** are ***PAYING our server to get it the way *********WE want the food, not anybody else we are paying. So sometimes it is the kitchen staff that the server did put it in correctly and it’s covered up by the food when they bring it out so I guess that it is, but sometimes it’s the server that was too lazy ass to put the order in correctly. They make more work for themselves, because by not putting those exact instructions into the computer, I end up sending it back. So that are uncaring, stupid ones a lot of the times. WHY ELSE would they tell me “It’s crispy” to get out of putting that into the computer, otherwise, WTF would they tell me that? Think about it…

Because I proved you wrong.

Because 99% of the time I keep my comments to myself and just be nice back even if they aren’t, but not pay them well. In other words, I don’t get verbal with them in a mean way. There’s only a few times I have lost my cool and that was due to the server being extremely rude to me first, which honestly most of the times I don’t fight back, but a few times when MANY things had gone wrong with NO apologies and LACKS of effort such as a waitress messed up on many issues, huge issues even with no apologies and was SOOO LAZY ASS, she asked me when my food was in front of me, “So what did you order.” How lazy ass and uncaring can you get to make a customer repeat their order when she did WRITE ALL the details down, I saw she did. She got a bunch of things wrong that were obvious to the eyes that I didn’t have to touch anything to notice the mistakes like 1 mayo was missing, a big bowl of cinnamon apples was on the plate that I substituted extra fries for, and 2 bbq sauces weren’t on the plate. The big bowl was the EXTREME DUH in that one. To have that many mistakes, she didn’t even compare her written order to the food in the kitchen even. To not apologize for anything when I wasn’t mean to her was just plain wrong. I had to ask for utensils twice. We waited a half an hour for a margarita that another server took that she didn’t check up on it at least within 10 mins. It was HER FAULT she didn’t check up on WHERE my margarita was that she could have discovered it before a half an hour went by.

Question groo forgot to ask Springs:

When and why did you stop taking your meds?

You so don’t get me. You leave out my best questions and think that I am serious. :)…

But I’ll give you a freebie. In my world view I am never wrong. You can’t prove me wrong in my world since that never happens. Sometimes reality hasn’t conformed to my point of view but eventually they will coincide.

I am most definitely prejudiced. Not against black servers though.

Yah …to be honest you are likely correct. Did you ever try to work with someone with asperger’s syndrome? I was in charge of someone like that once, they just didn’t get anything in the same way as most people would.

This just proves you know I am right. You don’t see that?

If you have to send bacon back so often that you are ‘tired’ of doing so, perhaps you are the one with the problem.

Seriously, if you have to have an item cooked just so, and you fly into a rage when it is not cooked to your exact specifications, don’t order it.

No I am never wrong. Its an infallibist view that many of you share…but you are wrong and I am right.

But lets examine your argument as it were.

A knows B is right. Thus A see’s B as right.
Clearly if A doesn’t see B as right. Than your premise is wrong.

A more evident example of this is your love for burnt bacon. I once thought that war and poverty were the greatest evils effecting mankind, but now I realize it is the proponents of burnt bacon. With their insidious rudeness and color charts they are trying to ruin civil society.

NO, maybe the problem is either A. the LAZY server that didn’t put in the order correctly or B. My server or another server that brought out the bacon without having to touch to food that they could have noticed it was soggy.

HOW is it MY PROBLEM if I say “I want my food this way” then they ignore it, huh? DON’T YOU* as well as EVERYBODY WANTS WHAT THEY want for THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY**** HUH?

FUCK YOU ASSHOLE BITCH!! What an UNCARING EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING!!I mean seriously, if you don’t like the job, DON’T BE A SERVER OR A COOK if you can’t follow EXACT INSTRUCTIONS. It’s just like a person that wants their steak well done, HOW IS THAT ANY different than what I want, huh? It’s not.

I have EVERY RIGHT TO ORDER THINGS THE WAY I*** want for MY* MONEY.

Seriously? 3000 words? I mean, I can tell from your attitude that you’re a useless bitch who needs a good face fucking (shame you’re probably to ugly to keep any guy hard long enough to complete the deed), but 3000 words on a forum about tipping? You really are just pathetic.

Anyways. First, where did I say I was a server. In fact, in a couple of different responses on here, I stated that I have never worked as a server or busboy or anything. And I don’t believe in indiscriminate tipping. In fact, in my first response to you, I stated “your craziness is hurting all of us trying to argue against automatic, indiscriminate tipping”. I figured that with your life being so pathetic that you can respond to forum posts with 3000 word responses, you’d bother to actually read the responses, but I guess I was wrong…must be part of that common sense you claim to have, and us “stupids” lack.

Now, I actually have a life, so I didn’t bother to read all your response. Especially with your inability to grasp basic english spelling, grammar, or pronunciation…and since you’ve decided to continue to continue acting like a cunt and keep capitalizing. Luckily, most of what I did read had to do with your assumption that I was a server who believed I deserved a good tip no matter what. Now, since I have already proved your assumption, born out of your almighty common sense, wrong, I can ignore most of it. However, a few things popped out at me, and I will address those.

We have, even when we were more polite than they were. Most servers don’t say they are sorry. [/quote]

Funny, I have never had a problem here. Maybe if you weren’t such a bitch to people then people would actually give a shit about you.

No, don’t understand. Now, I know you lack the ability to understand basic english, but stick with me for a second. Let’s look at what you wrote…

It was not so much the context that I couldn’t grasp, I don’t understand what you are trying to say because you have the typing ability of a four year old and this giant ass sentence doesn’t follow one clear thought process.

Wow…3000 words and am only able to quote you twice since everything else you wrote was just accusing me of being a lazy ass server, when I had all ready mentioned multiple times that I have never worked as one…wow, great use of your common sense there.

Wow…600 words, including your quotes, and not only is what I wrote more meaningful, but has a higher chance of being read since I didn’t type like an annoying cunt…see what basic english and typing skills can do?

PS Get an attitude change before you walk in on your husband and his mistress. Trust me, once he leaves you, with your current attitude, you’re gonna be single for a loooong time.

Geez Christine you asshole bitch don’t you realize that caring human beings address each other like this?

From now on I want you all to address me as Groo you cocksucking racist misanthropic lover of cheetos and women cute and small.

HOW when we have been eating out 2-3 times at times a weekend since me and my husband met since Nov. 2000? NO, we aren’t broke by a LONNNNNGGG SHOT.

That’s because I PROVED YOU THE HELL WRONG!!

Any idiot could understand this:

Condiments can be brought out well BEFORE the food comes out by your “own server” no matter WHO ends up bringing out your food.

NOW do you understand?

The troll is strong with you.

I’m not a server either. I am just smart enough not to order things that I need to have cooked to exact specifications. You, are insane.

See, when I eat out, I never ask for substitutions (other than maybe a side salad instead of fries). I never make special requests.

If I like the meal as prepared, I may go back.

If I don’t like the meal as prepared, I don’t go back.

The restaurants I frequent have chefs who their menu planning seriously, and what is the point of going out to eat if you can just do it better at home.

Please do yourself a favor and start taking your medication. I’m sure those unlucky enough to know you will be relieved.

Poor money mgmt could be the issue. Lots of broke asses go out to eat and then find excuses not to tip or complain for a free meal. Your hard earned comment is the ringer. You’re a broke joke.
