i wouldnt care about getting a tip from Jordan, i would pay him so i could be his caddy lol.

Yeah Australians dont tip much, i remember i caught a bus and it was a long ride so it cost me bout 8 bucks or something and i gave him a 10 dollar a note and im waiting for my change and the driver just said well if you want me to take ya that far i deserve a tip lol. He looked a bit dodgy so i just said fine and walked off, but it seemed pretty rude to just expect a tip. Damn you Transperth lol.

i've seen bus drivers refuse to let people on the bus if they don't have exactly the right amount of money.

and he was going that far anyway, he's payed to go that far, he doesn't deserve a farking tip. jeepers.

Yeah that pisses me off. One guy wasn't going to let me on a few days ago because he would've had to give me 30 cents change, fuckwit. Some drivers really have problems.

The most money I've gotten on a bus for is 20 bucks... for a $1 ticket.. but the driver wasn't too impressed... but the most dodgy part was that when this woman payed for her ticket with a 50... and she got a couple $5 notes as change... but when my mate tried it, he got refused onto the bus

(N)

Sometimes you wish you were a woman :lol:

especially when u have seedy old men as teachers and the chicks get As and the guys only get Cs (N)

Anyways back on topic, my mate delivers pizza and surprise surpriese, a large part of his income is off tips... strange hey?

Good to see some NBA players tipping well though.
I would want to be a ball boy for Tim Hardaway.

Kevin Garnett came into Toys R Us today and donated $100 for Toys 4 Tots (charity that gives poor kids gifts on Christmas). Just thought I'd throw that in there. :wink:

That reminded me, just recently I ordered Chinese food to be delivered. The total came out to $25.02. When the guy came to the door, I gave him $30 and expected some change back. He handed me two toonies (2 x $2) and a loonie ($1). I took back $3 when I could've easily taken $5 back. That would've left him with a two cent deficit :lol:

Ever had a delivered pizza taste kind of weird? Start tipping, its only %15, even if you don't do it all the time.

I always tip...i know its not easy work in the food industry...its like working in lost luggage/cleaning out portapotty's...somebodys gotta do it but no one truly wants to. If they exceed expetations, they'll get 5 bucks on occassion (had a pizza delivered 10 minutes after i ordered it and it was cooked to perfection...which makes me wonder why i wait for hours on occassion) but usually its 2 bucks for any tab over 10 bucks if its just for me, if i'm sharing with people and have a rather large tab, it goes up accordingly...usually try to do at least a buck per person....unless service is terrible, then its fuck you i'm outta here...

"That" only happens if you order from the same joint everytime and the delivery guys already know you as the non-tipper. :crazy:

Try ordering from different pizza joints to remain "anonymous."

I discovered a strange thing myself. You see, I worked as a pizza delivery boy for the last 2 1/2 years. It's almost always the people in the poor areas of town who tip you better. Sometimes, I would deliver to this huge mansion on a hill above the city. When you got a total of 49.50€ and get paid with a 100€ bill, you would at least expect them to let you keep the change of 50cents(which is about, um I dunno, 60 american cents). But hell no... Some people just don't appreciate good service like they should. Maybe it's because I look weird, i don't know.

That's why I'm pretty pissed at KG right now. And riot... :mrgreen:

To my defense, when I order pizza I usually pick it up myself. The two pizza joints I order from are Papa Murphy's and Marcellos, and neither of the two deliver. I hardly ever have pizza actually delivered to my house.

That explains why...i never tip those damn baristas and crap at starbucks unless they give me free food or an extra drink or something....
