When you go out to eat, would you consider yourself a
Easy to please diner ?
or a
Pull up a chair this may take awhile order-er ?
If you or someone in your party is the 2nd one do you tip more ?
there seems to be a bit of confusion with this part of the question
What I was asking is
If you or another in your group is a "pain in the butt" with ordering (you know kinda like me the selective eater) do you give a bigger tip to make up for it
When you go out to eat, would you consider yourself a

What do you call:
The shiny silver stuff that comes out of the skinny box ? Aluminum foil The clear film wrap that does the same thing ? Saran Wrap The carbonated beverage(not beer) that comes in a can or bottle ? Soda
Do any of our QOTD family still have any 33 1/3 albums hangin around their home ? I don't have any. I remember having a Winnie the Pooh record player and when you played a record, all the characters (Tiger, Egor, Piglett, Pooh) danced around. It was the custest record player ever. I wish I still had it today.
I'm pretty easy when it comes to food. Actually my preference is more family oriented, down home hospitable staff, not get-in-and -get-out type of places.
I paid shipping charge for my new dual time watch.
I didn't even know there was any holiday coming up because I'm working all next week.
Anyone wanna listen to my collection of 33s??

If you or someone in your party is the 2nd one do you tip more ? I usually tip 20-25% depending on the type of restaurant and the level of service. After being the GM of restaurants, I know the difficulty of dealing with the public and being on your feet for long hours. It's a tough job.

Have a great day everyone
Thanks for clarifying the tipping question, Karla! Yes, I do tip more if I'm with someone who gest stupid. Or with my friend that believes $3 is a good tip no matter what...
When you go out to eat, would you consider yourself a
Easy to please diner ? No. But mainly because I expect better of the food I sometimes receive. Regardless, I am always kind about it, because it is not the server's fault. The worse I have given out was very recently, when I ordered a chicken salad. That thing had no saving graces whatsoever! NOTHING! It came with the dressing already on it, and the dressing tasted like a bad cole slaw dressing. The chicken was half-coated in some kind of seasoning that was completely ridiculous. The whole meal tasted like a five-year-old's first attempt at cooking without help. Seriously! I told the waiter that the recipe was so bad that it should not be categorized as a recipe. We know him well, and he hears volumes of compliments from me, or I would not have been so blunt.
or a
Pull up a chair this may take awhile order-er ? No
If you or someone in your party is the 2nd one do you tip more ? I tip 20% unless something is extraordinary

Time to go to work
Have a great day everyone
When I go out to eat I am semi-demanding/particular. I want what I want, like I order it and I base the tip on the service I receive. I am friendly though. Quite often I take the high road where tipping is concerned. The last thing I tipped over was coffee. I paid to have a pizza to be delivered to a kid not too long ago. I plan to breathe in and out for Labor Day, maybe nurse by broken-heart by seeing what I can do for somebody else. I don't have a clue about the Just for Fun questions, so I will skip 'em. I hope everyone is getting along right nicely... Peace and Love aLLyaLL
I am a very picky eater and it may take me while.
I am planning to spend quality time with my husband on Labor day.
Foil
Plastic wrap
Coke, everything's coke in Texas
