There are at least a few countries where tipping is considered to be extremely rude, but as far as I know those places also pay their people normal wages. Here in the U.S. that's not always the case. I also think it's dumb that if you happen to order a more expensive meal that your tip should be proportionally larger, but that's just the norm. I usually do small tips for just "doing your job okay" service and if they were especially attentive or engaging in some way then I'll tip them higher.

Self awareness and connections.

Ronald Reagan bull****. No humility. No gratitude for your good bounces. No empathy for misfortune that you fail to understand.

You earned this and you earned that? You’d get eaten alive at my job. And you said the same **** to me about not hacking it as a teacher when we discussed NCLB. Where’s your perseverance? You’re not sweating in a 100 degree kitchen you’re in the ****ing loony bin with your family caring for you and worrying about you. **** your I bettered myself bull****. You’ve been carried for a decade.

The incident to which you're referring was a LONG time ago, has absolutely NOTHING to do with this and I don't remember getting slammed to the ground.

My [at the time] wife [not "baby mama," this isn't an episode of Maury] was having an episode of mania due to her bi-polar disorder and schizophrenia. When the cops were called due to her causing a disturbance in a public place, acting crazy, having been up for like 10 days straight, drinking, being on meds and wanting to drive, one of the cops was a friend of hers who disregarded all protocol and just shot the shit with her. When I questioned this, her male partner tried to play tough guy and threatened to arrest me if I said one more word, which I, of course, proceeded to do. Then I ran away from him and left, rather than assault the piggy and go to prison. Don't remember getting slammed into the ground by him. Maybe a little tussle, but that was it. Maybe I misspoke about it before or remember it differently now, a decade later.

Also, if you are going to cherry pick bad memories from my life to pepper in to later conversations when they have absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand, just to get your jollies, then you can eat a dick, fry boy.

Yeah, this shit from Mr. Elitist Shart Pirate is a big stain on my generation.
OK, maybe Charles isn't up to it now - he will be someday - but people that
work hard to make available some kind of sustenance to fill up some pie eating
ass hound (not to mention all the other service jobs like cleaning your smelly
turds out of crappers, and so on...) have all kinds of reasons for having to deal
with ugly butt nazis on a daily basis: rent to pay, school loan to pay off, it's
their second/third job to keep the family hummin' ... jeeesh - "there but for the
grace of Jah go I" yeah, but I'm also extremely grateful for their service in such
unforgiving jobs that've been beaten into the ground by slimy tone-deaf rectum-
pirates of industry. Yeah, some meals won't go as planned and if it's a bad
day/night, then your server will probably already know that, but to have the
kind of shine-my-shoes attitude of a douche pilot, then you probably get what
you deserve.

Then stop posting pictures of them as if they're ours to comment on. Do you know how hard I had to bite my tongue to keep the baby jokes from spilling out?
