Inadvertent interactions with NFL players

I've met quite a few,

I grew up in the same town as Bobby Carpenter, i havent seen him since he went pro but ive met him a few times before. Also BJ Mullens from the NBA played for a school in the same league as my high school.

My senoir year of high school one of our football coaches volunteered the senoirs to work a charity golf outing held by Mike Furrey. I met tons of players there, and had pretty long conversations with Brady Quinn(his arm is freaking huge!!!) and Dallas' Roy Williams

Plus ive also met Eddie George and a ton of Ohio State players

 

Why are you getting $10 BJ's from dudes? Not cool dude, not cool at all LOL.

I get what you're saying, but it reads kind of like you normally let guys go down there.

 

The thing I don't get about tipping is that the percentage seems to go up. I remember when I was a kid, people tipped like 10%. Then "they" told us that 15% was an acceptable tip. Then it became 18%. Now, people want a 20% tip. Where does it stop?

 

It's called inflation. It's lame. I'd imagine it wont stop until there are no economies around the world.

 

....but that should be reflected in the food prices. Instead of tipping $2 on a $20 plate, we are now expected to tip $8 on the same plate that is now $40.

Basically, servers have used social media to guilt us into doubling the tip rate.

 

It's always women that ask if I need change. Wasn't talking about BJs from men.

 

I usually leave between 15-20% when I dine out unless it's an unusual situation that deserves a larger tip.

I don't really think 15% is below average or cheap, it's average. 20% is generous and you should be happy. Above 20% should be for exceptional or specialty/difficult services like a large party.

I'm just a little surprised 15% would receive so much scorn.
