SOME SERVICE PERSONNEL DO DESERVE OUR GENEROSITY.....AND IN THOSE INSTANCES I TIP.

That means wait staff, who have their salaries reduced because of expected tips, should be tipped. If you perform a duty that is outside your required service (especially if it's something that I can do for myself) I tip - for example, the gas attendant that cleans your windshield, checks your fluids and fills your tank. <BR/>Now, folks like Starbucks that get a full salary and charge me $5. for a cup of coffee, don't get a tip for walking that coffee from the coffeemaker to the counter. That's part of the service. Same goes for other food service places.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10988868216271744389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12180121.post-1124298829068483132005-08-17T13:13:00.000-04:002005-08-17T13:13:00.000-04:00IN RESPONSE TO QUESTION (1).

YOU HAVEN'T REALLY MAKE A BIG LIFE MOVE IF YOU ARE STILL CARRYING AROUND UNFINISHED BUSINESS. ITS HORRIBLE TO FIND OUT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN DUMPED ONLY WHEN YOU ARE CONFRONTED WITH YOUR REPLACEMENT. THAT IS SOOOO WRONG. CONVERSELY, IF I WERE THE NEW GUY, I'D HAVE TO WONDER WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO DO THE SAME THING TO ME. CLARITY...COMMUNICATION....CONSIDERATION ARE SOME OF THE THINGS LACKING IN THAT 'BIG LIFE MOVE"..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
