Everyone knows tipping has gotten way out of hand, so to speak. Of all the silly places you have seen tips solicited, which places bug you the most? Do you ignore them or do you feel obligated to stuff them with money?

between the ladies i take earnings of to paintings at a gas station with (the region we weren't recommended we couldn't settle for options, even with if it wasn't some thing we outright requested for) use to maintain a tip jar on the counter. She might want to shove it lower than the signal in on a similar time as someone we worked with were given right here in, yet she become in again and our boss suggested it on a similar time as she went in to examine up on the keep. heheh the female wasn't fireplace, yet she did could remove the jar (the boss regarded on the safe practices digital camera feed randomly after that) and all her options from that day were donated to an MS fund we were operating on the time. ... now no longer ordinary, i imagine, yet humorous and all i could imagine of.

One of the girls I use to work at a gas station with (where we weren't told we couldn't accept tips, but it wasn't something we outright asked for) use to keep a tip jar on the counter. She would shove it under the register when someone we worked with came in, but she was in back and our boss saw it when she went in to check up on the store. heheh The girl wasn't fire, but she did have to get rid of the jar (the boss checked out the security camera feed randomly after that) and all her tips from that day were donated to an MS fund we were running at the time.
... Not odd, I suppose, but funny and all I could think of.

The weirdest/innaporpriatest [i know thats not a word] place i've seen a tip jar is probably at a regular store. like an everyday store..such as walmart. it wasn't there, i dont remember which one it was..but it was something like that. i think it was mcdonalds.
pathetic isnt it? how everyone feels the need a tip.

Once when dinning out the waiter arrived with the menu and the tip jar super glued to right hand side of his head..I thought that wrong..It's more appropriate on the left side..

I'm not sure that it was actually the most inappropriate but i laughed out loud when I saw one at Dunkin Donuts. Come on, how hard is it to put the donut in the bag.

Believe it or not, in medieval times you had to tip the guy that cut your head off. A good tip gave you better service, quick and painless.
