Don't respond to my hamfisted attempts at flirting? Well, your refusal to put up with sexual harassment for an extra 2% is noted, miss.
This one burns my *** the most.
Yet I freely admit that despite my best efforts, I am guilty of tipping more to the pretty ladies.
Curse you, testosterone-fueled thinking!
It introduces an element of risk to the income of someone who is statistically unlikely to be a high earner (yes, some people can make bank off tips, but those are not the standard, and it's silly to think they would be).
Truth be told, I frequently overtip by more than a little trying to be fair.

It's funny because the meal in general cost more in Sweden. Conveniently about how much a 15 to 20% tip is. Lol

the only thing that really matters is attentiveness of the waiter/waitress. the ones checking if I need a refill or anything else a couple times throughout the meal and actually come back with your stuff in a timely manner I tip well.
That *** who I asked for a refill and 15 minutes later when I've already finished my meal now and want the check is still nowhere to be found gets no tip.
They can have all the sourpuss i don't want to be here face on they want as long as they get my order right and are available throughout the night.

how to tell if you have a good waiter:
>>>you get food
>>>approximately 1-2 minutes pass
>>>dude / chick comes back & asks if everything's good

dude / chick comes back & asks if everything's good "Now that you're here everything is better!"
Jokes aside, obviously a waiter that treats you well is appreciable, but don't forget to treat them well too. especially cause they carry your food..

I dunno, some waiters are over-aggressive about refills.

Anyone else always tip in cash? I'm not sure how tips work these days and how they dispense them later but I always feel if I CC them the actual person who served as the waiter/waitress doesn't get that full tip. They're the only one that deserves it damn you! I haven't worked as a server/bartender since...oh wow, 2006...
But it used to be that you did a print out of your sales at the end of the night, cash owed would be listed and credit card tips. You would take your tips out of any cash you had received and then give the rest to the manager, if you didn't have enough cash they would reimburse you.
However (depending on where you worked) you also needed to tip out the hostess, bartender, and bussers based on total sales or bar sales.
So, no they don't get to keep the full tip, normally.
The last place I worked (when gas prices were high after Katrina) discussed passing on credit card charges (the mastercard/visa percent charges per transaction) to the servers. Not sure if some places started doing that, which is a load of crap. If some places did do that, then giving cash might be a better option.

In Alberta, as far as I know, all tips are shared based on a percentage base: Something like 70% for the waiter/waitress, and 30% goes to the back of house staff.
Granted, a Server does deserve more of the tip they get, if they get a tip for good service.
But servers in Canada get paid the same minimum wage as their kitchen counter parts, which is something like $10.10/hour in Alberta. Now, from personal experience, most restaurants and servers actually welcome repeat business from low/non-tippers (because they are more frequent, the low end being 10%) than those who visit far more rarely, but tip between 15-20%.
The only time I would expect a tip, in any business (due to personal experiences) is when I've gone out of my way to make sure the customer had an exemplary experience that is above and beyond what they expected.
Aside from that, I will tip a great server, even if the food is poor. I will tip the kitchen staff (with a note saying to do so) if the food is good, but service blows. If both the food and service blows, I just won't come back.
Edit: Should also mention, my entire family tips in cash.

You're an ugly piece of ***... you'll need this more than me. Reading comprehension my friend; I said I make sure to tip people the same amounts, whether they are attractive or old or conventionally unattractive etc
Not to tip people more for being younger or more attractive etc Why would you need to make sure to tip them the same is the whole point...
I never said anything about not tipping more for being younger or more attractive. This is what you said yeah I feel ya; that's something I'm aware of and try to tip conventionally unattractive or older people the same amounts. This give the premise that somehow the young and attractive set the bar for tipping amounts and you have to make sure that you tip the old and the ugly just as much.
Why differentiate in the first place? Why not jsut tip based on service? You're very superficial you know that. Aren't they all beautiful people to you?!?!

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
