But he did find a way to spend $37 on lunch for two at a fancy oops pizza place. But couldn't afford $8 for a 20% tip?
Tipping 20% is ridiculous in any situation involving pizza. In fact, in any situation at all unless the service was extraordinary and unforgettable. For a nation which once despised the custom as undemocratic and servile, Americans have become absurd about tips.
Yet he had the discretionary income to eat out.
What happened to the "personal responsibility" meme?
I don't think that the patron should be required to pay for salary, it's not done that way anywhere else that I know of.
I mean, servers make what, about $2.50 and hour plus tips.
Another way the US is behind the world.
The cost of service is automatically included in the price of the meal in most parts of the world. The cost of a comparable restaurant meal is usually substantially more in Europe than the U.S.
Tipping in major European cities, especially rounding up, is also common stuff.
I love how when hardworking Americans are dissatisfied with the president, they like to take it out on young, hardworking women making about $22,000 a year.

That'll show Obama!
These women are making their hourly wage of at least $7.25/hr. A single 10% tip (as opposed to a 20%) is not going to make a dent.
Many losers can't accept their pathetic existence, so they blame Obama for all their shortcomings.
