Maybe if millennials didn't waste so much money on tips and avocado toast they would be able to afford silk pajamas too.

I lived in one of the poorest towns in Indiana when I delievered pizza and the best tippers were the ones that lived in the "ghetto". There was a rich semi-gated community on the outskirts of town that we delivered to as well and they tipped decently too, but on average the poorer the household the greater the tip. Also the large middle eastern population tipped very generously too.

I'm assuming it's because poorer people work in / have worked in / have friends that work in The Industry and thus understand how hard it can be.

I think this is just one of those social things, like you also only see people begging for money in poor areas/outside stores known for being visited by the lower classes because they know they will get more help there. I was raised by a widowed mom that was a waitress before I was born and did it for a while after my father passed before she went back to school and moved on and as an adult I've always been a good tipper. i don't eat out often but when I do, particularly when I get older waiters/waitresses, I leave a lot of cash cause at worst I'm giving some extra spending money to people who are working for it and at best I'm helping a family. Cash tips are like the most direct and honest form of charity, there's no middleman you just wanna give somethin extra directly towards someone who is working and will appreciate it.

Just because a single person answers the door and pays, does not mean they are the only person eating. A difficult concept, I realize.

This happenend often enough I started making country club the last location I would stop which used to cause so many customer tantrums.

I worked at a golf course once and those men and women for the most part were stingy, but some of them got aggressive about it by not only not tipping you but berating you for asking. One guy in particular was a real sour son of a bitch who was notorious for not finishing rounds and instead having a tantrum meltdown and then throwing his clubs all over the course and then making staff go retrieve them for him across the multiple holes he dropped them at on his cuss fueled trip back to the club house and then not tipping employees ever and berating them to get real jobs and going out of his way to do so. That guys wife got informed of the affair he was having the second someone at the course knew of it.

He was such a cheap fucker he was driving his coupe(?) car to the course parking lot at night to gently caress in it so it made him stupidly easy to confirm he was having an affair since there were cameras monitoring the parking lot.

I've been out of retail now for six months after.being in for 17 years. I've seen some poo poo. Old people are the WORST. I've never seen an overall more entitled group. A lot of them were pretty cool and I didn't mind the, but most of my worst customers were old. Senior Day was the first Wednesday of the month. You can't believe the number of people that would come up with a huge heaping cart if stuff, and everything to me one at a time, examine their screen closely to make sure their 10 cents came off, and repeat for every item in the cart. It always took 10x longer. Yes, Grandma. You saved 3 dollars today. Now you can go back to 1970 and buy something worthwhile with it. There were also some things that weren't on senior discount and of course it was always my personal fault that they can't get it. "Do you know how much I spend here?" No, and I don't really care. But even if I did you're not above the rules. They apply to you, too. This applies across all demographics, but apparently handing an unwanted item to the cashier I'd the most difficult thing in the entire world, and it's much easier to ditch it wherever you're standing at the time, even if it's standing in line at the checkout and then trying to stash it by the gum and candy.

new phone who dis posted:I have the same experience sometimes. I'll call because the cable or internet is out and they'll start doing their profuse apology thing and I'll just cut them off with "It's okay, dude. Things happen and you're not directly responsible. I'm not mad. You're just doing your job and I can appreciate that." You can feel the relief through the phone when they realize you aren't going to be "one of them". One of my personal policies is to be extra nice to my retail brothers and sisters, because I know first-hand how much abuse they out up with. I can't count the number of times where I had a question where I asked "hey is it possible for you to do x?" and they say no sorry and then I hear and feel them bracing for a barrage of yelling and verbal abuse, only to hear a huge sigh of relief when I say " no worries, it's cool" and tell them I've been on their side of the counter. They act like they've seen a magical unicorn fairy.

I was reminded because I saw the senior day banner at my old place of work and got flashbacks of the slow moving bad tempered stampede. I've got tons of scammer stories, screaming assholes, crappy teenagers, awful management, etc.

Been about a year since I last worked retail/food service, Starbucks in a Target, which really blew because A.) it was in a Target and B.)we were technically Target employees so we got no tips. We had this little cup hidden behind the register for spare change and pity money some regulars would hand us. We'd split it all up when the cup was full, which would take like months, and it was $5 for everyone just a joke. Even that eventually ended because the store manager got word of it and made our manager make sure we didn't dare keep loose change around for ourselves anymore. My spineless middle aged manager turned down numerous promotions for more money because he was freighted of having more responsibility and was barely in the department on most days to begin with instead just trying to look busy bossing people around on the sales floor. Not only that but he couldn't make drinks to save his life. Almost every regular we had said they would avoid getting coffee if they saw him behind the counter like he even brewed basic rear end coffee wrong. Every time he trained the newbie's on recipes, we'd have to immediately show them the actual right way to makes drinks after. But he kissed rear end really well, especially to the district Target/Starbucks boss dude who would visit once a month, and he kept the place insanely clean so we always got perfect health scores unlike the rest of the store. So he'd schedule himself back there for the easier opening shifts, spend the whole morning cleaning between the old ladies coming up unaware of his notoriously lovely drinks, avoid the department on the craziest days by either running away to the sales floor or requesting off beforehand all together and I'm sure if I went and visited that place today I'd see him still walking around the parking lot hatching eggs on Pokemon Go because the dude was obsessed like that's all he did every lunch break. So if you're a forty year old single man with no ambition in sight and who's main priorities are virtually non-existent, Starbucks Team Lead position at Target is the spot for you I guess!

When I was in high school, I did the outlet mall circuit, same as every other kid in my small-rear end town. There's a somewhat obscure outlet chain called the VF Outlet. Imagine a Target-sized store, only there is virtually no semblance of order, and some of the clothing is extremely irregular/flawed (pants where the legs are different lengths, shirts with misprints, underwear that cost 50 cents and was about the quality you'd expect for that price, etcetera). Our demographic was an odd mix of Chinese tourists (literally, the outlet store was a tour bus stop for Chinese-speaking tours in spite of its rural location) and mountain folk who'd come from as far as Montana to load up on two or three carts' worth of lovely, dirt cheap clothing. I had one woman roll up with a bazillion pounds of clothing for her 15 grandchildren or whatever. When it came time to pay, she tried to use her sister's EBT card, which my system couldn't even recognize, much less use for clothing. When I was finally able to get this across to her, she looked grimly into the middle distance and muttered, "That's okay. That's why I always got my sock." She reached down the front of her dress, between her massive, ancient, slab-like tits, and withdrew a sweat stained sock. Inside the sock was a tightly rolled wad of cash. I will never, ever forget how warm and moist those bills were as I peeled them apart. I had to lay each bill out separately over the rest of the cash in my till so they could dry out a bit. But, hell, if I'd refused to take the sweaty tit cash I'd have had to ring all the merchandise back into our system. Some poo poo just isn't worth it.
