To tip or not to tip?

As someone who's both received and given tips, I love them. Why? Because they're a dead-simple way to convert money to happiness. When I received a big tip, it always brightened my shift a bit. And now, every time I go out to eat, I know that I can do the same for someone else.

Do you stand in the street and give people money? You can buy other's temporary happiness there too.

I like tipping high on servers and bartenders who have been exceptionally nice to me.

If someone is just friendly and helpful way beyond the call of duty, I'll probably drop a 25% tip in their lap just because if somebody makes my day, I want to make their day in return.

And then there was when my favorite bartender left his job at my favorite bar... I think I tipped almost 50% on his last night as a parting gift.

Haha not exactly, but I do frequently give to the homeless. The money goes even further there.
