The second of the two dreams is explained here, if you keep reading, after I’m done typing, after these words.
I was at a restaurant in the dream, and I was stuck with a 330 dollar bill. It was for mediocre food, but I look down and go “Fuck, I gotta pay 60 bucks worth of tip on this shit?! Wait, what is it before tax I’ll go with before tax numbers WAIT ITS STILL TOTAL OVER 350 BUCKS WHO THE FUCK ORDERED THIS SHIT!?”
So it was more of a nightmare.
Anywho, I’ve decided to start tipping at restaurants based upon the pre-tax amount. I think it’s garbage to tip someone with tax included. Sure, it’s not much more. For a 100 dollar meal tax is say, 10 bucks. 18% of that, if we’re using 18%, is 1.80. Is 1.80 a big deal?
ITS THE FUCKING PRINCIPLE OF THE THING!!!!
Also, I feel bad for people who have a 1000 dollar dinner bill but 500 of that is say, wine. You are paying almost 100 dollars in tip based upon the guy walking to the wine area, grabbing the wine, and bringing it over, yet that 50 dollar steak which took awhile to prepare and care for, is getting 10 bucks on top.
And when I say “Feel bad for” I mean “Want to punch in nuts for.”
I gotta go vacuum.
