When To Not Tip Your Waiter?! Really?

August 29, 2011 in Consumer ism, Rants | No comments

Waaaaaah! You don’t like the service you got at nasty ass Dennys from the girl who makes poverty of a living.

This rant is in response to a fucking hideous post and comments I saw at that affiliate sales driven, “advice website,” wisegeek.com

If you were making POVERTY for a living – and knew no one in your entire country gave a shit about your survival, even though you’re getting your ass kicked paying taxes and working for a living, would you give stellar service too?

Believe it or not, some people still do… AND Oh My Fucking God, YES – some people do not! FYI, retards who think tipping should be debatable, it’s just like ANY OTHER INDUSTRY.

Let’s broaden this spectrum for the simple minded…

Regardless if it’s food, construction, an office job or fucking investors over – there are dicks in every industry and every job across the world. It’s been this way forever – and no amount of stiffing your fellow human-being will change it. And think about it FFS – whose to say that the employee is the problem? Seriously, how many bosses have made doing your job suck? How many managers have made their employees look bad? How many cheap ass business owners make employee’s lives shit? How delusional do you have to be to judge and punish one person because you can’t handle minor daily disappointments? And if you do judge – honest to God, who the fuck do you think you are?

    Tipping a waiter is not a “nice thing you’re doing for them.” Tipping a waiter is YOU actually PAYING the living wage that American restaurants are too cheap to pay out.

Tipping a waiter would be a “nice thing to do” IF the restaurant was actually paying your server enough money to pay their rent, let alone buy groceries, health insurance, car payments, student loans, cell phone bills, credit card bills … ect … but they’re not. So no, your tip is not a “reward” for good service. Your tip is sustenance for a working human being.

Also it’s none of your business why a person chooses to wait tables – so don’t get all up on your high horse and start preaching about what people choose to do for a living, lest you are Stalin, a Republican Tea Bagger, Fred Phelps, or Satan himself. (And no one in their right mind listens to those assholes.)

ANYWAY – tipping a waiter is a non-negotiable debate till you get off your ass and tell your politicians to stop shoving special interest money up their gaping assholes while allowing “some” industries to pay human beings a inhumane wages.

Till that day happens …

1. HOW DARE ANYONE DEBATE A PERSON’S RIGHT TO A LIVING WAGE.
2. HOW DARE ANYONE PLAY WITH A HUMAN’S ABILITY TO SURVIVE BASED ON YOUR OWN SHALLOW, SELF-ENTITLED DEMENTIA.

If I met anyone who didn’t leave a tip I’d smack the shit out of them and then I’d go to their job and proceed shred 20 – 95% of their paycheck into non-existence -Because I’m pretty sure 100% of the evil, self-entitled, undiagnosed schizos who do condone treating another human like an insect – aren’t fabulous at their desk, construction, political, or sex jobs either.

I’m pretty sure you would STFU about how to treat a waiter if your own boss docked 20 – 95% of your pay based on their own perception (be it correct or seriously incorrect) of your performance …

ANYONE WHO THINKS TIPPING IS A DEBATABLE TOPIC, (including Denis Grosz and wisegeek.com,) has their head so far up their asses that it’s amazing they can even breath.

And that’s it for my rant. Fuck off.

CT: somewhere down the line someone forgot to explain to these assholes what Democracy is …
CT: fair rights for all
CT: nope
CT: they don’t get it AT ALL

F: i think if they get elected they will do something completely ridiculous
F: or say a bunch of stupid shit
F: thus discrediting themselves, their party, their party’s platform etc etc
F: it will also make life hell for the regular bureaucrats
F: right now they have it easy

CT: libertarians are retarded

F: they like guns

CT: well fuck!

F: gotta give em that

CT: I like guns!

F: theyre alright with dope too

CT: haha they’re all right with everything the government hates
basically
CT: if you made breathing air something the government was pro choice on
CT: they’d be all like … “oh fuck no we don’t need to breath air! just because big fucking brother tells us too means it’s the worst thing possible for us!”
CT: the libertarian parties slogan should be: “We are the group of adults who never outgrew our teenage angst. Let’s smoke dope together and hate everything that stands for authority and law in the world maaaan.”
CT: and then Christine ODonnell would come out dressed in leaves and dirt playing a pagan tune on her recorder flute…
CT: and would caste spells of power on all of us
…

CT: you know the more i think about it – the Libertarians are starting to sound a lot like the Scientologists

Opportune Take What’s Not Yours Day!

“History books teach that Indians were murderers — is it murder to fight in self-defense? Indians killed white men because white men took their lands, ruined their hunting grounds, burned their forests, destroyed their buffalo. White men penned our people on reservations, then took away the reservations. White men who rise to protect their property are called patriots — Indians who do the same are called murderers.”
