Since I am out of state and trying to meet up with some AZ locals over the next couple of days to shoot some and won't be able to arrange it if I am banned, here is my edited response, which is a fun little story that I am sure you will enjoy:
I think of you every time I tip. And it feels good.
I tipped the waitress at Denny's today, gave her $20 for a $13 lunch.
I got married a few weeks ago. Spent over $26K of my own money with no help from family on the wedding, paying for family member's flights, hotels, tuxedo rentals, venue, food, wedding party gifts, etc. etc. Even after that, I tipped the DJ $300, tipped the photographer $200, tipped the venue and coordinator $1K, tipped the servers $100 each totaling $1.4K, tipped the photo booth operator, tipped the limo driver, and probably tipped some other people I am forgetting.
One day, when you grow up, move out of your mom's house, get a job, develop some class, and learn to use capital letters, you may realize that not only does tipping play a huge part of certain people's income, but it is also the right thing to do. It makes other people feel good about working hard and doing a good job. It makes me feel good for being able to do nice things and reward good service.
Oh, and tonight when I am playing some cheap sets at one of the local pool halls with some AZ members, I will tip the waitress, and think of how lucky I am not to be a worthless POS sitting in that sh*thole of a city named Stockton right now. I am looking forward to it! Have a good night sweetheart.
