We never tip overseas.

You'd love Asia, they don't tip at all especially Japan. It's considered an insult to tip because you're essentially saying 'your job is shit and you don't earn enough here's some sympathy money'.

There's a Japanese restaurant in London which explicitly tells you not to tip and any money left on tables will go to a charity, that's nice of them innit?
Most other Japanese restaurants over here do take tips though and some even include it.

Anyway I usually tip more if the waitress is attractive, does that make me a bad person?

You get put into the federal 401K with 18K matching, CBP pension in addition to your SS, life time health, dental, and vision. Cheap life insurance and a special death insurance. Tuition reimbursement, student loan repayment, transportation subsidy, and a few other things.

Sounds like a pretty nice package. Are you going to be the next JFK aeropuerto officer on NatGeo's any random border/customs patrol show?

Are you still mad I hurt your ego by calling lowing a welfare queen for working as a government contractor in the defense industry? Seiously, you don't have a leg to stand on with this argument. Your father was a welfare queen and so are you. Get a real job creating wealth instead of destroying it.

Wow Jay, you've had a real job for how long now?
How much of your work is still for the govt Jay? How about that school you just fitted out?

At least my father was a successful welfare queen, and not a coward who ran away when the first shot was fired in his direction

I'll take it as read that your wife does earn more than you and this is where all this need for bluffing, puffing yourself up and putting other people down comes from.

What's the big deal if someones missus earns more money? My wife has a few hundred €'s higher salary and I don't give a damn about it. I'm just happy money is flowing in and the bills get paid. Is it some sort of caveman thing where the man must be above everything?

My wife is ten years further in her career. I would hope she is making more than me.

It is a caveman thing yeah, guy is supposed to be the breadwinner etc. Completely ignores the reality of the modern world.

Googling that name reveals things that are largely similar to one facet of the perceptual ability section of the DAT, so.... yes?

So I saw you had a deleted post to the effect of "any tips?" The only practice for that part of the DAT is familiarity. I didn't do much studying of the chemistry or biology since I was familiar, but spent a little under an hour a day reviewing all subsets of the perceptual ability test.

that's not true. Japan yes, no tip. Anywhere else and it's not necessarily expected, but they are used to people tipping. I was in Vietnam in March of this year at some bar in a touristy-type area and I was chatting up the bar manager there (half isan half chinese) and I asked if Americans were the only ones that tipped. She said no, and that the biggest tip she'd seen came from a Russian - which is weird, because Russians are kind of looked down upon in SEA for being cheap as hell.

You don't tip a bartender?

for almost 2 weeks now. Yes i have netflix. I've watched more TV in the last 10 days than i have in probably 5 years.

I started watching Master of None (new Aziz Ansari show). I don't know if it was because i was heavily sedated at the time, but it was kind of meh

I also watched:
3 seasons of The League
Show Me a Hero
Burn Notice (I know, I know)
A few comedy specials (bill burr, kat williams, old Richard Pryor)
