T.I.P.S.

Ok so i just got an anonymous Comment about me Using the word Tips as an acronym, and i sand by what i mean... since the word in food service as most people don't know is an acronym standing for, "To Insure Proper service," or "To Insure Prompt Service." i started this Blog to help people know the rules on how to be better Customers so i Use the Acronym to stand for; "To Improve Popular Service!" As for my attitude, any way you spin it i may sound a lil angry in most post it is b/c yeah this shit really happens; and i am sick of it!!! And for the ones who criticize me for it go for it since we are all entitled to our opinion, but i wont stop writing how i feel about the customers.and i for this Post i present a special Catolog of the diffrent types of tipper and how they affect your service...

Tippers:

the Verbal: I don't completely hate these people since it is always good
to hear how well you do but come on in this time with economic
distress I won't be able to pay my rent with, " Good job, or best
service ever!" I need cold hard cash, please!

the Accountant; customers who tips based on the bill before tax and will
most often slit a tip on a slit bill so you end up with less.

the Compensator; some one who did something grotesque and tips really well in
hope to apologize for their behavior.

the Flat 15%: a person only tips 15% of the total bill.

the Ingratiator: yuppie with guilt about being rich and wants to prove to
everyone he is done with the working class by tipping well and having
us call them by the first name this is in attempt to get you to like them.

The sugar daddy: the old fart trying to get the young sexy waitress by
tipping a lot thinking that will make her forget he is 20 years her
senor. And sometimes this works but most often it doesn't!!!

The average joe: they tip 15-20% and consist of 70% of the dining public.

10% tippers: people who think it is still the 1950s and still only tip
10%

Foreigners: patrons that come from other countries and ignore the
standard tipping customs.

the Nice customers: (not enough of these ones) people who respect you and
treat you as a professional and they tend to tip at least 25% truly a
Valued customer!

Cheapskate: yuppies who are unable to separate there money from their
pocket!!! ( Least favored of the lot)

the Use to be server: most often people who use to be servers or at least
worked in a restaurant normally leave good tips. However those who
don't tip well, will be doomed to wait tables again ( consider this
divine intervention or karma) also are usually ones to announce them selves as one.

The scank or whore: usually hot attractive women that think flirting
with a server and shaking "it" will qualify as a tip. Unless you will
actually go down on me it doesn't!

Well this is about it, when it comes to the classes of tippers!
and i hope this is a lil more enlightening for you readers
