No but I would like to decide who gets my tip. If the service was horrible but the food great, I would want all my tip to go the kitchen. I would then want the server to improve their service to earn my tip next time.
Ideally, I would like to have the option of paying for my meal according to how well it is executed. For instance, if I order a rare steak and it is not cooked correctly or mostly gristle, then let me pay half price for it. Some people would say send it back, but I don't trust people I have slighted working with my food. This is just my opinion.
We never had Macs. My parents bought their first computer, a Windows 95 Packard Bell (acquired by Acer and not sold in North America) the year after I was born. It was $4000. I know this because my dad still has the receipt. We had it for five years before finally getting an HP desktop with Windows ME (even though the 95 still worked; just needed the newer features) in 2000. That one lasted 9 years before we finally got the current HP desktop and my first laptop. No Macs ever.
We used these when I was in first grade

By the time I was in third grade, we got Dells. Kept a few Macs in the library, but other than that, we used Dells. Got very used to Windows and would get confused by Macs back then. If I had taken Journalism in high school a year earlier than I did, I would have had to use Macs for that class, but thankfully, the year that I started it was the year we got Dells. Why we still had old Macs in 2010 is beyond me.
Now I'm just set in my ways
Try elderberry syrup or pills. They are natural antiviral. All the nurses in our PICU use it this time of year. I personally have seen results.
Alimento-fine dining in LA. The owner has added a new line to the check beyond the tip line for server. He added a tip line for cook in attempt to raise the pay of all the kitchen staff down to dishwashers.
Now if you were a regular at this place would you want to stiff the kitchen staff?
That is a very unfortunate situation. I was a RC growing up...and was an altar boy as were my 3 brothers. We never encountered any of that. We lived next door to the Rectory and across the street from the church. I left the church, but not for the reasons you stated, but I know that I could never be part of an organization that condoned and hid what was happening.

Ha! Me too. Were you the one that woke me up just in time to see it and doze off?
I ousted DH from our room yesterday, I'm getting a nasty cold so by the time they came home from work I was hunkered down in here trying not to *share* it with them. For whatever reason Walt won't come in here either.
Coral Reef, yum!

I actually really like him as Bond. He doesn't top Sean Connery (no one tops Sean Connery), but I think he's definitely second in the order of best Bonds. Pierce Brosnan was okay, didn't like Timothy Dalton or Roger Moore at all though.
Orion has splashdown. Well that was short..........and expensive.
seems it was 100% successful, both in take off, and the maneouver.. cnn.com is saying it landed correctly.
Yea, that didn't look good for him.
Last I heard, he had some fractured ribs and they were lookin' at his spleen.
Looks like he may be out for the season. Hope he recovers well. I hate to see that kinda' stuff happen, but, it is definitely an occupational hazard they are all fully aware of.
Also, before I googled, I was close on those terms, I think... I thought they meant a collapsed and/or a punctured lung.
I love my brother.
My new bathing suit and coverup came today. So I walked in his room after trying it on.
Without me saying anything, he says, "New coverup. I like it."
Okay, so he
1. Knew it was new
2. Complimented me without asking.
Good brother. Good brother.
I mean seriously, what 13 year old boy automatically notices these things, especially on his sister? Awesome ones.
