Tipping your waiter for good service. -
04-27-2008, 03:03 PM
Most people know I'm a good tipper. I know how hard it is to struggle and work a job with no reward, so I like to give a little extra to help out my servers.
Unfortunately, like everyone, I have been confronted with poor service more often than I like. I don't like to be a cheapskate and not leave a tip, although sometimes the desire is irresistible.
Here is a good suggestion for a way to give your 'server' a message about her poor service and make a tithe to God's favorite church at the same time:
TurtleTip will set up a unique account for LBC so you can order tip cards that tell your server that their tip is going to be donated to the Landover Baptist Church. You will truly be doing the lord's work by supporting your church and spreading the name of Jesus.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

I consider tipping a waitress to be the same thing as giving cash to a panhandler. She's just going to spend it on booze and drugs. I've heard testimony from now-saved former food-service employees, and I know how they like to "party".
Whenever I dine out, I always leave three Chick Tracts in lieu of a monetary tip -- one for the waitress, one for the busboy, and one for the cook.

As a good Christian cash gratuities are out of the question for me. I would never degrade a fellow human being by making them dependent on handouts. Instead I leave a business card with the URL for the Landover On Line Bible with commentary and Apologetics. Teach them to fish and they never need to grovel for money again.
Time to reclaim our FREEDOM from the “Mullah in Chief” and his growing activist voter hoards of socialists, communists, anti-Semites, anti-Christians, atheists, radical gays and lesbians, feminists, illegal immigrants, Muslims, anti-Anglo whites and others.

What? You are supposed to tip food servers?
Don't they get paid from the restaurant they work for?
Good LORD, everyone always has their hand out don't they.

A new ethnic restaurant opened in Killington so a bunch of us went for dinner last night. I was adventurous and tried chop suey but did not like it at all and sent it back. When I asked for something American, the chink waiter copped an attitude with me and mumbled something that I considered anatomically insulting.
The guy I was with was about to deck the little slant but I convinced him to let me leave a turtle instead. 20% of our tab (there were eight of us) went to LBC instead of an illegal immigrant.

Yes Sister T, my thoughs exactly!
You don't expect to walk into a Bank and withdraw money, and have the cashier ask for a hand-out - so why should we give extra money to these servers? After all they are getting paid already from the restrauraunt that empolys them. What are they? Bums? Do they want paid TWICE for the SAME JOB?
These people are probably fraudulently claiming welfare too, getting a THIRD wage for nothing. It seems to me that they are nothing but greedy money-grubbing human trash.

Not only that, you know that they are not declaring the tips you give them on their income tax. I'd rather donate to the presidential election fund.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

Wait staff are paid less than minimum wage because they are expected to earn a certain percentage of their income from tips.
Now that Obama has won the election there will be big black cock for every white woman!!!

Waiters and waitresses are paid what they are worth.
If the owner deems you are worth $3.50/hour, be happy it it is not $2.50/hour. You need to thank God you are working at all and that a fellow Christian was willing to give you their money to spend on debauchery. If you have made a patron very happy, pray they add a tip. If they do not add one, then it is up to you to resolve what you did wrong. Remember, the customer is always right and God is always watching you..
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

Amen, Pastor!
When I was a lowly waiter working for cruel masters who forced me to work Sundays or lose my job (I went to Church at night still and repented), I had patrons who would leave me Chick Tracts as a tip.
How could I forget when their large group would come in to eat with their small children? They would feed their darling little Soldiers for Christ® Cheerios which approximately half would make it into the demonspawn sweet babies' mouths. The rest would fall all over the floor.
After the first time that Godly group (shout glory) left me Chick Tracts as a tip, I was so incredibly inspired, I shared them with the owner, the bartender, the cooks and the fellow waitstaff.
The following week, they came back. God bless them. Javier told me something about gusanos en la salsa. I'm guessing that meant maggots. Thank the LORD we threw it away before our TC™ patrons could be served such nastiness.
We had the busboy wash their teaspoons like a moyle finishing a briss. He seemed rather feverish and clammy that day. I'm sure it was just the Holy Spirit and anticipation of such an august group of True Christian Independent Baptists.
I can tell you, I and all the waitstaff were parched from all the good service we gave them that day!
Their bill that week, approx $35 (1992). My tip. $1.88. Praise His holy name!
Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.

That is the most bigoted thing I have ever heard about servers. They ALL party and do drugs huh? Shows how out of touch you are to the world. No wonder servers hate having customers like you, because YOU ADD TO THE STEREOTYPE. Servers make 2.13 an hour in some states, so a MONETARY tip is necessary. How would you like if I came to your church and took money from you because I didn't like your service? Same thing.

So I need to pay because the server is crap at negotiating a reasonable wage for himself? I need to pay because the server chooses to be unskilled and uneducated and unwilling to find a better paying job? I'm not taking anyone's money by not tipping, in fact I'm making sure my money goes to the people who really need it by giving it to God by way of our church. If the server actually needs the money God will make sure it ends up with him, and if he doesn't need it, the money will go to someone who does need it, as is God's plan. It is not up to me to interfere with God's plan by tipping waiters.
Philippians 4:6
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
^^ Read that waiters, if you have need of something pray for it, instead of whining for tips.
And if the waiter really does deserve minimum wage like is paid for other unskilled and uneducated jobs involving only minimal light labor and a lot of standing around, he doesn't need more than $5 in tips per hour from all his tables combined, so tipping $ 0.50 on the bill for a 10 person table is more than reasonable, I would even call it generous.
Leviticus 26:15-16
And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant: I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

"Tips" is just shorthand for another use for the charge for tippling intoxicating likker and for intoxicated staff to tip one another overlustfully. Once the restarant sign is closed, anything can happened. When I was in college I worked in at a Mexican restarant where the signage looked like a cross between Mayan art and Ernie Bushmiller's Nancy. I strongly believe Ernie Bushmiller should be investigated.
I rebuke the sinner with meek and sisterly VENOM.

Yeah, I've not been anywhere too poor to pay a living wage. Even to waiters. I guess that's why it's called the third world. Some parts are quite rich.
Others less so.
Two tier, third world, same thing.

I don't know what happened. TurtleTip seems to be offline and I bought all of these tip cards, I guess that was just a waste. I'll probably keep handing them out since I already bought them.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

I often leave a very nice tip.
Just last week, I took several major donors to dinner at a French restaurant in Indianapolis. Great food, great wine, about a $2,300 tab. We were there for about four hours, really ran the poor waiter ragged.
I left him a million dollar tip!
As we drove away, I saw him running behind the car, probably to thank me.
