I just realized I left a $10 tip for a $6 sandwich.

'Course, the counterperson could've mentioned something, but...(sigh).

1. Tip

Oh baloney!!

[democracyindanger]

3. Egg salad, actually.

14. Karma

Maybe its good Karma.

A few years ago I bought 3boxes of GS cookies and gave them a $20
to keep the change, I then played Keno and won $600

So I did the same thing....and won another $600

and again did the same thing..........and another $600

This was all in a span of 1hour
so it could happen

16. That's what I needed to hear

since I'm going to Tahoe in a few weeks.

22. More Karma

I remember before the "GS cookies" incident
I had purchased a WW2 navy book from a veteran
who wrote it, and was selling them at the store
next to my favorite bar, I am a history buff
and it was a good book, but I gave him a huge
tip, and told him to keep the change
I won at least over $1000 in Keno that day also!!!!

4. True story:

Once about 18 years ago I was a waiter for Pizza Hut, and a man left a $20 tip on a $12 pizza. I actually did go up to him and I said something, but he told me it wasn't a mistake and that I should never ask someone about that.

The counterperson probably thinks you're a great person. :thumbsup:

[democracyindanger]

7. I would feel better if it was a better sandwich.

[progmom]

8. did the counterperson make the sandwich?

or just serve it to you in an overwhelmingly positive way?

[democracyindanger]

15. Neither. To be honest

I was distracted by consciously trying not to look at her, um, t-shirt design. Shameful, I admit, but honest.

[progmom]

17. ahhh

your subconscious felt guilty about looking at her, um, t-shirt design. :P

9. Remember Seinfeld.... "every thing just works out for me".... it will

come back to you in other ways... but that was a funny episode if you remember it....

[LisaL]

10. She probably thought you really liked your sandwich.

[Jackpine Radical]

19. ...or her, uh, T shirt design.

20. Or her, um, t-shirt design

12. When I worked in a convenience store, a drunk tried to give me a $100 tip.

...to go to a grocery store and buy him a box of toothpicks (we didn't sell them)

I would have done it, except the woman who was working with me didn't want to be left alone with the guy.

13. I left a $100 bill on the night stand at the casino hotel where I stayed..

last week. The maid was a Choctaw woman who had catered to us like I've never been catered to. I felt like a queen, and my son felt like a prince.

She was SOOO nice. She knocked on the door several times to see if we needed shampoo, ice, towels, more coffee.

Sometimes I tip big. Really big. When I can afford it and when the server/maid/etc. has been excellent.

I hope this doesn't sound "elitist." I always tip, but, sometimes, when someone is extremely nice, I leave a huge tip.

[democracyindanger]

18. Not elitist at all

I always tip, too, even at crappy motels. I've had some menial jobs in my life, and tips mean a lot.
