The article said that the person is a college graduate trying to get money to go to graduate school. Someone in that situation is usually in their early to mid 20s. Compared to my age, that's a kid. The article also said that he/she "would be happy to get you what you need to make your...

Outrageous? I am pretty sure I said something along the lines of if a server does not want to put forth the effort where part of what they earn is dictated by their job performance they can get a job flipping burgers at McDonald's. Not an outrageous statement at all. And I repeated several...

Your pal has a double standard when it comes to rewarding servers, regardless of whether they are lazy and incompetent. He seems to think the opposite when it comes to other types of workers. If it were not for the two of you who continue to unsuccessfully try to label me as someone who shorts...

His reply to your question only reinforces that he has one standard for servers (apparently, whatever they feel like doing or not) and another for everyone else. Case in point below.

I was equating that remark with what you two are trying to make me out as someone who never tips, based on a comment I made when I said twice in my lifetime I did not leave a tip due to exceptionally bad service. You took the bait hook, line and sinker. :)

Well, you obviously enjoy being abused by incompetent servers since you so willingly encourage such behavior if you continue to reward them with a bonus whether they provide good service or not. I do not and I will not encourage such things. And no, they are NOT entitled to an automatic 15%...

Some people seem to think they are entitled to a specific reward or gratuity, even if that service is subpar. That's not going to happen with me. I do not reward laziness or rude service. The customers who bend over and say "Thank you, sir. May I have another?" as they shell out 20, 25% or...

I already said that I play the 20% game IF the service is satisfactory. No need to post a meaningless article. However, since you decided to bring it up, I will expand a bit on my tipping guideline. Servers should not expect to receive a 20% gratuity regardless of the quality of service...

This whole tipping thing has gone way overboard. I'm old enough to remember when 10% was considered the norm. Then it became 15% for a while. Now, it's 20% and I've seen a suggested 25% at places more often. I'll play the 20% game IF the service was satisfactory. If not, my gratuity is...

Oh, but that was fun, was it? ;)

I've heard about freeze dried Skittles but I have never tried them. They say it is for someone who likes the taste but prefers a crunchy candy instead of chewy.

Drop it, I made my point and it has been taken care of. Chastising someone for making a comment about some undercooked food is juvenile.

Just half raw, not fully raw. If he had ordered it rare, THEN I would consider it raw. And yes, in other words.

In other words, half raw.

Other than the half raw filet mignon, everything looked very tasty.

We're still waiting for your reply about the comment you made of only the Starcruiser having rooms available for Thanksgiving weekend when multiple people showed you that Disney had 23 resorts with room available for that weekend. No one heard much from you for a while after that.

I hope the crowd clapped as those four were led away. I would have enjoyed watching the show. :)

I just checked a minute ago and there are currently 23 Disney resorts with rooms available for 11/26-11/28, including the Grand Floridian, Polynesian and Contemporary.

Because there are people like me who feel like RotR is the greatest adventure ever at any amusement park. I'd gladly pay $18 to not to have to stand in line for close to 3 hours like I did when I was there last year.

Thanks for that assessment of the Chef's Table. I've only eaten in the main dining room but at $800+ for a dinner for two I think I'll stick with the ambiance it offers rather than the smells and sounds of the kitchen.
