That Way people who could t read could stay out of trouble. . I was privy to this information when i came upon the classic outhouse Book by Janet Strombeck. Dear Abby. In february of 1987, my granddaughter called and said she and her husband needed a loan of $500 to pay band s Choice of a new wife. Such talk would t improve your image. Dear Ann Landers. I work at a Well known deep dish pizza restaurant in Chicago. The other Day i served a Young couple. They ate a lot of pizza and drank a lot of Beer. When it came time to pay the Bill the Young Man put the Check and the Money in my hand and said a a in a sorry i can to leave a tip we re College students and you know How that  sorry pal i done to know How that goes. When you eat in a restaurant the tip is part of the Bill. You should count on paying it before you walk in the door. If you done to have enough Money skip the cocktails and appetizers. If you can to afford to tip go to a fast food place. Ann the government taxes me on a percentage of my total sales. If i sell $400 Worth of food that Day they tax me on 10 percent of that figure which equals $40. If 1 done to get a tip i end up losing Money. How can i respond to people who Tell me they can t afford to tip without seeming totally rude or losing my Job maybe show them this column a trying to make a living in Chicago dear trying i doubt that you will want to show them this column when you read my response. A tip is not part of the Bill. A tip is what you get for giving Good service. If you Are completely fair you will admit that most people tip More than 10 percent. Under no circumstances should a waitress complain when the tip is too Small. I agree however that if Money is tight a couple would do Well to hold Back on the extras and cocktails so they can leave a tip. Very flew waitresses can make it on their salaries alone. C creators Syndicate for their baby which was due in five months. I mailed a Check to them immediately and they sent a note with both their signatures promising to pay me $25 until the loan was paid off. I never asked for this note a they sent it on their own. Since that time i Haven to received a Penny from them although they have bought cars and furniture and have taken vacation trips. The final Straw was when my granddaughter paid $150 for a pet Snake Abby if they had sent me Only $5 or $10 a month i would feel that at least they were making an Effort. I continue buying gifts for Christmas and their birthdays even though 1 am getting a Little resentful. I am not poor but neither am i Rich. I am afraid if i ask for the Money they owe me it will damage the Good relationship i have with them and i done to want to cause any hard feelings. Should i just keep my Mouth shut and Hope they never come to me for another loan soft touch in Nevada dear soft touch it s unfortunate that you let it go for so Long. They probably assumed that since you never asked for the Money you did no to need it. Write them a Friendly letter reminding them of their obligation and enclose a photocopy of the note they signed.
