I don't see why customers should be expected to pay the wages for employees in the service. It is not the customer's fault that the pay is low and you are not forced by law to take any job. Maybe if the attitude was more positive, the tips would be more. No one wants to be treatly rudely and then be expected to pay for it. Also, everyone should try to do the best job possible regardless of whether a tip is expected or not. Do a good job for yourself. It may not pay the bills but it makes you feel great. Everything shouldn't be about the almighty dollar. God will take care of our needs.

In the Marines we stuffed them in our Sea Bags. Until I came back Stateside. Do other guys fold theirs? If so. Why?

says to me without even greeting or anything: "Are you authorized to use your son's credit card?"

They call everyday. The card is not even join, and besides I have never used his credit card, and either has anyone else.
Is this FRAUD for someone asking you only this question every day?
What's a good come back line for jerks like this?

I've noticed that good manners, social graces and customer services is becoming a thing of the past. Why? Many people don't hold the door for one another anymore, they don't smile at one another; they don't excuse themselves when they push past you in a store. People seem to be oblivious of ther surroundings.
I have a real problem with customer service. Since when has it become acceptable not to greet a customer when they approach? These days you're lucky of a salesclerk even looks at you or smiles when you get to the register. How about salesclerks who make you wait until they are good and ready to help you?

this guy I know looks just like Beyonce, just picture Beyonce bald, w/ no make up. Yep that's him! It's soo funny, my friend and I agreed that if he were to do drag people would actually believe that's her. He even has her ears, golden glow on her skin.... the works. This man is build better than me, he got the booty and hips. I know he's straight, he's not feminine at all. And I want to tell him w/out offending him, how do I discreetly tell him he looks just like her?

I have a tight budget to throw a surprise birthday party. Would it be inappropriate to ask a few close friends to bring some appetizers or drinks to the party?

My parent's friends held their wedding in our backyard. We did alot of hard work to make sure everything was beautiful, and everything went perfectly. To express their gratitude they gave me a Thank You card and enclosed was a check for a nice sum of money. Do I need to write a Thank You letter back? I feel as if I should.....

It takes place at a very fancy venue (the Four Seasons Hotel) with live music, etc. The invitation specifies "business attire." For men, this is obvious -- suits. But what does it mean for women? Strappless dresses?

I have been a waiter and a pizza delivery driver and am curious about what people think is adequate. Everyone knows about what waiters expect, but some other professions are tougher to determine. I am talking about food delivery, haircutters, bell hops, valet service, etc. As a pizza delivery driver, if I got $1 I was upset, $2 was fine, $3 was good, and beyond that was just icing on the cake. Many folks don't realize that the delivery charge often doesn't go to the delivery person (most people assume that and delivery people hate it). Also we do the same amount of work regardless of the bill and most of the time it is not our fault if the pizza is late. Someone else quotes the delivery time as a guess or a computer estimate that and it is misquoted often times. Though we didn't get paid $2-$3 per hour like waiters, we had to pay upkeep on the vehicle as well as gas. If you perform a service expecting tips and most people don't understand let me konw as well.

I think it's wrong to use paper for such a frivolous use. Paper comes from trees. Also it is a waste of time and money. I'm not a scrooge, I give gifts wrapped in homemade reusable fabric gift bags. When I see a person whom has sent me a card I thank them but tell them my beliefs.

Is it wrong to have your friends remove muddy footwear before riding in your car for long drives? I am trying the mat things as well but they seem to work well for short drives. (like they get in for ten minuets or and then out) (when in comes to 3 plus hours of driving they are sitting in mud it would seem) I don't wanna be too much of a neat freak but I want my friends to be comfortable as well as keeping the car up. (also I want to be appropriate, is it or not?)
