I quoted you, and responded to you.

Was my quoting you and responding to you then directed at you personally?

Go ahead. Guess. I bet you get it right.



Let's explore that. I don't know you. I don't care care about you. I won't lay awake at night thinking about you, or worrying if you're tipping.

You figure out if your tipping makes me happy. I bet you get this one right, too.



You call that "rage," do you? Do you still live with mom and dad and have a very sheltered life? Only child? Spoiled a bit, maybe?



My comments apply to you because I QUOTED YOU.

Wear long sleeves so that thin skin doesn't get sun burned.



Is it really that important to you to make sure you control how much that van driver ends up with at the end of the day? You're really such a small person that you're worried about how much he makes, or has in his pocket? A little schadenfreude going there, maybe you want to hold that guy down? Is he not as good as you?

Tipping isn't about you compensating an employee to adjust their wage. It's about being less of a god damn cheapskate and acting more like a professional: something you don't appear to have grasped.

Five bucks isn't a big chunk of that per diem. Take a deep breath here: sharing a little bit of it won't kill you.
