I haven't admitted this (my wife thinks that it is racist).
I explained that you can't be racist against chinese people.

Anyone who can make coffee. Sick of getting hot brown crap in a cup.



If you work in a cafe, learn how to make coffee!

If I get good food, they get a tip next time. If the foods bad they don't get repeat business so it isn't a problem. Ethnicity doesn't come into it.

Nope, I don't tip anyone except Taximen if I'm in a cab on my own. I guess it's my way of saying thanks for proving my mother wrong by not kidnapping me

In my defense I am a poor student and barely have enough to buy the food. Also they are getting paid and I'm not American.

I would tip someone who makes a good impression tho, or are really good at their job.

Me and my friend once gave a taximan almost a 10 euro tip on a 13 euro fare for having to listen to our drunken ramblings about men from our night out.

No, I don't tip because I don't get tips. Also because I'm in college and I don't have the funds to eat in any nice places!

The last time I gave a tip, I was locked. My uncle gave me the change from buying me a pint, and I gave the change to the taxi driver for some reason. It was about €15!
