darin3 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) You know Montster is Asian right? Uh huh. I guess no one but taznib got my "gland slam" joke. You know. Slamming one's glands? Tickling tonsils? Playing the skin flute? Umm.... Or of course the joke sucked. Edited February 3, 2009 by darin3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found humor in the fact that Darin was either dense or insecure enough to think we didn't get it. Or maybe he doesn't think we're as smart as he is?

MikesVikes Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I used to do a lot of traveling for work and we always had a big breakfast since there weren't any guarantees that you'd have time for lunch. You don't want to take chances on the local Ma/Pa restaurant especially when it came to omelets. You could sure get some nasty stuff on your plate at a local dive. Perkins was always first choice but we've been to plenty of Denny's restaurants across the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HowboutthemCowboys Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I would literally have to poo as soon as I got to my truck leaving Denny's. +1 . Drove by a Denny's about 10 this morning. Line was out the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) +1 . Drove by a Denny's about 10 this morning. Line was out the door. #2 Surprised just driving by that place doesn't give you the poopys. Back in the day we used to have a Denny's right by my apartment & would always hit it up on the way in after a long night out. My wife likes to tell everyone about how me & my buddy passed out on their bar one night while waiting for our food. The next morning was always a race to see who could defile the bathroom first. Ah good times... I would first vote for "Puddy", then vote "dense". I always hate it when I think nobody gets my jokes. My humor tends to be a little out of whack most of the time.

Vinatieri Is God Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Me and my son both had OJ so the bill was $5.60 plus tax. Not really sure what the final bill was ... anyway...I left $8 on the table. I hope $8 tip and not just $8 total. A $2 tip is awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chester Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I hope $8 tip and not just $8 total. A $2 tip is awful. The average price of a grand slam nationwide is $6.00. 2 Grand slams plus $5.60 plus tax is about $18.50. A $2.12 tip is approximately an 8.9% tip.

TimC Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 $2.00 tip? Now, now, now...you don't want to get them off welfare, do you? I would've left them a card saying "Jesus is all you need." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 The average price of a grand slam nationwide is $6.00.2 Grand slams plus $5.60 plus tax is about $18.50. A $2.12 tip is approximately an 8.9% tip. I'm not trying to be a dick about this but when you eat out for a quick breakfast or lunch and the total bill is only $6.00, you don't do the 15% or 20% do you? I don't mean this to you Chester as you just did the math and pointed it out but what I am saying is the girl that brings you your eggs and drink or burger and drink with three refils is working the same as if you ordered prime rib and drink. I don't feel the need to tip based on the price of my meal. I rarely hit a quick breakfast or lunch and don't leave at least 4 or 5 dollars. I think that is normal.

I don't feel the need to tip based on the price of my meal. I rarely hit a quick breakfast or lunch and don't leave at least 4 or 5 dollars. I think that is normal. I'm also going into this openminded. I was discussing this with some bar friends last night. (I am a bartender and work for tips so of course am a little biased which should make this point sound weird). Shouldn't you tip on 'work done' as opposed to a %? In your example, Skippy, shouldn't the person bringing a burger and 3 refills actually get more than the person bringing a steak and a drink? That's 2 extra trips to your table. My example was 2 couples order dinner: Couple A has 2 glasses of wine and 2 ribeyes. Bill is $75. Couple B has 2 burgers and 2 pops. Bill is $20. Server did exactly the same amount of work for each . A 20% tip is $15 compared to $4. Why does s/he get an extra $11 for doing the same amount of work? If anything the cook should get it, though the cook is getting a real salary as opposed to the minimal wage of the server. As a bartender this is less of an issue, since I usually get tipped 'by the drink'. Some leave a buck a drink, some leave $XX when they leave. Some leave little or nothing. Depends on the person.

I always tip 20%, unless the server has given me reason otherwise. I may round up to an easier amount, but it is always in that neighborhood. But then again, I even tip for pick up orders... But I wouldn't tip $4.00 on a $6 meal, that doesn't make sense to me. Edited February 5, 2009 by cre8tiff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 That is exactly what I am saying Chester. I sort of live by that for the most part. I am a pretty decent tipper or so all the waiters that always want us to sit with them make me think. Work is work. I will admit that I short the cheap lunch staff based on my tipping process but even though I short them based on my opinions, I tip better than everyone that ever joins me for lunch. If my lunch is say 9.60 then I normally round my bill to an even $15. Now if I eat out at a restaurant with my wife and child and the bill is $70.00 with good service then my tip will be $10 - $12. However, I will tip that same $10 - $12 where our bill is $38.00. That waiter works no harder on the $70 bill then he does on the $38 bill when it comes to us. Great, over the top service with some free drinks, (many waiters do this when they know you), will equal $15.00 tip from me. I know that is not the greatest tipping but I think it is reasonable and I know it is better than a lot of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
