Old Hippie Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 I hate tipping, and frankly, it is just over expected. over done, and annoying everywhere you go, you see a "tip jar." I actually have met several "food service professionals" (waiters and waitresses who thought $1000++USD for a 25-30 hour week wasn't that great..."...we're on our feet the whole time..." Fuckers.

Bangkoktraveler Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 I thought the tip jar was for people who did not have enough money for the food. That is why it is on the counter. Is that what you are telling me? I thought tipping the waitress meant turning her upside down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cavanami Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 T.I.P. used to mean, To Insure Promptness. Now it is usually expected and if the TIP is what is expected, I have seen the employee approach the customer and complain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 T.I.P. used to mean, To Insure Promptness. Did it? To use correct english the phrase would to "To Ensure Promptness" not Insure TIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangkoktraveler Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Don't you have to insure it in order to ensure it? Or is it the other way around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

engine driver Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 This is my first post here, i have never looked in this section before and a revelation. So what if there are a lot of Arabs about? what RACIST NONSENSE Arabs have every much right as you do (probably a sex tourist) to be around Sukhumvit. Do you imagine the Thais are really more welcoming to the average white visitor than they are Arabs? Arab visitors also contribute a lot more to the Thai ecconomy than most visitors, dont roll around drunk late at night and on the whole do not consort with whores. What makes you so special pal?
