Just a little aside on tip jars. This weekend I was in the local Starbucks downtown and couldn't help but notice that, along with both bills & coins, the tip jar was full of water! I asked the server what's up with that and he replied that they do it to keep low-lifes from walking in and grabbing the whole thing and running off with it. It was a pretty big jar...probably quite heavy when full of water.

I'll usually dump my pocket change into a tip jar for good counter service...especially if I know that tips are shared with the dishwashers and other help.
