It was only fair. Edit: Many Irish people on holidays are sh*tty tippers (or were in 2004 at any rate). We often would pick up the change they'd leave behind them as a tip and it'd be maybe 60 or 70c in 5c, 2c and 1c coins. It was almost offensive.

And I am the one slaving away back there, over worked and taking all sorts of abuse just to make sure your food is cooked and presented to a high standard. Yet because the waitresses makes a little bit of a fuss over ye, ye hand her 20 quid for doing her job. One of the waiters in work made 60 quid in tips in three hours last weekend. Muggins here has to work nearly twice the time and do ten times the work before I get to see 60 quid. Ugghh...it's not a stinge thing with me. It's just a begrudgement I have. I think nearly every chef has it tbh.

I was having a conversation with one of the junior staff and she confided she couldn't go out every week, it was costing her too much! I got really pissed off, I I went after work and we all sat down, bar type restaurant. this one girl, all brown Thomas bags and new York holidays ordered "her usual" cocktail. x 2. dinner came and of course the pasta or pizza for 10 euro wasn't good enough for her. as usual she ordered her starter (always the most expensive), the steak, side of this, side of that, glass of wine x 2, and the most expensive coffee. one of the junior staff said she always took control of the bill, and they were never able to stand up to her. I grabbed the bill and proceeded to tot up what everyone owed. she tutted and said really? just divide it out "we all had basically the same". in the end, I owed 13.00, and I gave a 2 euro tip. most everyone else owed between 13.00 and 20.00 euro. she owed 45.00 euro. her mate owed 36.00 euro. her face was priceless. she was just plain stingy, expecting everyone to sub her knowing that she was ordering anything she wanted. I can't stand that behaviour, I just think its plain mean. interestingly the next time we went out she claimed she was on antibiotics and couldn't drink, and from then on, things got a bit easier.
