I just returned from the land of "the tip": New York. In a week, I went through $300 in tips alone. You know the story: a cab here, a doorman there, the porter, the baker and candlestick maker.. I'm telling you, it starts to add up.
I never tip at Starbucks. I mean, enough is enough. The damn espresso machines are automatic now. All a barrista (by the way, how can a guy working at Starbucks allow himself to be called "barrista?" -- I guess it depends on the guy, eh?) has to do is steam and stir milk.
In Hawaii, porters drive Lexus Sedans paid for by tips.
If I got a buck for every post I've made on this board, I wouldn't be hounding you guys about 20/21 cams. They'd already be inside the engine.
