I don't think I ever feel warm and fuzzy inside but I do treat the holidays for what they are, which is just another day... kinda like the rest of society.MgoBlue-LightSpecial wrote:Wow, that must make you feel real warm and fuzzy inside.BarFlie wrote:I do not tip or donate to anything during the holiday season except for someone giving good service at a bar or during a meal.
The rest of society does that all year round.

You haven't shat until you've shat at light speed and trust me, you want to be toward the front of the team when we have to pull that sleigh after getting ahold of some bad oats. One year, the old fat man had to install one of those huge buffet-style sneeze guards on his rig to deflect all the reindeer runs. Prancer had to be shaved clean just to get rid of all the cling-ons.

Just make sure my mail gets here on time, my paper makes it to the lobby, my loser suburban friend's lawns are mowed, and you pick up the garbage on time.
Once you get that done.
I'll let you know.
2ool, do you set up a code chime tone?

When I was a paperboy, I used to ride my bike through the fooken snow with two baskets full of newspapers and a 70-pound sling around my neck. I walked the papers up to people's doors and for the old folks, I pinched the paper up high in the screen door so they didn't even have to bend down to get it.
I also had to collect -- 70 houses every damn month.
The old folks and stuggling middle income types always gave me tips, be it money, gift certificates, food, etc.
The prick doctors, lawyers, and university professors never gave me a dime.
If you have a real life honest-to-goodness paperboy and you don't tip, you're an asshole.
If you have a Messican who rides around in a car and throws your paper in the bushes, well then that's a different story.
As for postal workers, we've got windchills of about -15 today here in the Twin Cities so yeah, yer damn right I give them a tip for Christmas.
As for the garbage men, they don't even get out of the truck anymore as it's all roboticized, plus I pay an arm and a leg for trash pickup so fuck that noise.

A good general rule of thumb -- if you're on a first name basis with the garbageman/paper boy, it's time to back off the drugs a little bit.
And there's parts of the country where they don't pick up the trash in a robot truck? Well, since some of you are still impressed by your shiney new indoor plunbing, I guess I shouldn't be suprised.

I took my gf out to dinner last night, with Christmas tunes playing in the background. Food was great, service sucked. As a former waiter, I usually tip pretty good no matter what time of year, but last night I left less than 10 percent. And I usually try to tip a little more during the holiday period, even though I don't go out to dinner much, especially the closer it gets to Christmas, so last night's waitress was really bad.
Can't say I've ever tipped my mail dude. And I won't anytime soon with the freak we have here either. He's a fucking freak who has met my dogs several times, yet is still paranoid of them. Also, he literally shoves shit into our mail slot as hard as he can, making as much noise as he can, no matter if it's a single letter, or a stack of junk mail. A fucking ass, he is.
