    YUK!.

    Having worked in bars & clubs for over 15yrs I can promise you nothing will prepare you for the stench of the female toilets.

    Think about the worse males toilets you've used, and imagine it a hundred times worse in any female toilets!.

    If they dont have work permits and a lot of them dont,the bar is commiting a criminal offence by allowing them to scrounge on the premises.If they DO have work permits they should go somewhere and get a bloody job and pay taxes like everybody else.I dont object to giving a waiter or what have you a quid for a job very well done but i'll never tip somebody for either doing nothing,or doing something badly.

    Do you ( or anyone else in fact) think that any waiter or barman etc gives a **** if you give him a quid for his troubles???

    That's just another excuse and attempt to guilt-trip everyone into giving these chancers money.

    They aren't employees of the establishment, they are begging for cash tax-free - illegally - and most of them don't have a word of English. And you expect me to believe they'll be considered credible witnesses in an insurance-claim court case, if they turned up at all.

    Complete rubbish.

    The Revenue should do a bunch of them for unpaid taxes, and then a few bar owners for facilitating illegal earnings on the premises, and wipe this scourge from Irish society, ASAP. The rest of us should be very vocal in expressing our disapproval to bar managers, and should boycott pubs and clubs where it goes on.

    Down with this sort of thing! :mad:

    or you could just walk out without giving them any money, and not let it get to you. Is that so difficult?

    ps - I don't care what you believe

    People are paid to do thier job. Tips arent required !!!

    To get a tip they should have done above and beyond their job they are paid for.

    Tipping a taxi driver because his cab is clean is just plain stupid.
    Tipping a waitress becuase she brought you a beer is also stupid, after tips these girls go home with a crazy amounts of money for doing a job that takes very little brains / skill.

    I couldnt give a **** what any waiter or barman thinks.He has a job description:serve the feckin drink/food,do it properly and shut the fcuck up.Anything he does over and above that is an extra for which he MAY be tipped at the customer's descretion.If they dont like it they can get another poxy job.

    Not to mention the anti-social hours these people work. Granted they should be paid by their employer for this, but there is a lot more to working in a bar/club then people seem to think.

    I'm not saying they should be tipped, but at least give them credit for doing a decent job. If they go above the call of duty i tend to give them a few quid.
