HAHA! I thought the same thing jdcomba!And as far as the real tipping situation goes, just tip the bartender for his services please. I bartended for over 3 years and believe me, I busted my ass most of the time. Granted I worked at a nightclub out here in Vegas so it was mad busy. When the club I worked at started to die out and get slow on business, I truly appreciated those who left at least a dollar. I've dealt with it all: 17 cent tip, people stealing my tip money to pay for drinks they couldn't afford in the first place, having drinks thrown at me, etc... of course that doesn't justify me getting tips. What justifies it is my service to you and your friends. If you come up to the bar and order a cape cod, a mudslide, 2 Coors Lights and a pina colada and you don't tip me, best believe you aren't getting served promptly at my bar next time. I'll short your drinks, spill your beer etc. What people also didn't understand is that where I worked we had tip compliance with the IRS. That means that Uncle Sam takes extra money out of our checks according to what they think we make in tips per hour. At my establishment they estimated $5/hr. which was a nice low end figure to in the beginning; but after a couple years when I would go home at the end of the night with $14 thanks to an ungrateful broke ass crowd I was pissed. I actually ended up losing money on nights like that. My standard tip to bartenders and waitresses is $2/drink. Most service people appreciate that and show me love from my gratitude and tips.
But getting kicked out for not tipping the owner, fuck that. Flatten his tires.
