Males and Females

[Dak]

No, it's their way of making money.

 

[Episteme]

What Dakryn said pretty much. I was tipping her quite well too.

Female bartenders in particular are always slightly flirty (except when they're extremely flirty) and are very good at subtly bending and posing in ways that highlight their tits and ass. This maximizes tips. I don't blame them for it. I'd do the same in their position. But basically, never ever think a bartender is into you unless she's actively touching your junk. Good way to blow a lot on tips and drinks you don't really want. If you want to hit on the barmaid, do it sober and get ready to get rejected.

At least, that's my experience and that of everyone I've ever talked with about this.

I also consider it inappropriate to hit on someone when they're not in a position of equality, such as when they're at work. I mean, it's fine to flirt a bit, and if they reciprocate, to move on to actually hitting-on, but it wouldn't be right to just open up on a cashier or waitress or whatever.

 

[King Richard]

You retards. Those bitches get hit on the entire time they're working. So unless you're Leonardo DiCaprio or some shit they're not interested in your weak sauce material. Just go get drunk and tip well and move on.

 

[waif]

Fuck tipping well.

I tip well for good service, but if the service is meh like it usually is, I don't tip on my last drink.

 

[King Richard]

Well ya, if the service is shit I give them a tip alright, LEARN HOW NOT TO BE A FUCKHEAD.

 

[unknown]

the bars I go to typically don't have female bartenders. craft beer bars are generally sausagefests

 

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

I don't tip at a bar unless the waitress walks to where I'm at and physically brings me a drink. I don't care how nice your rack is, I'm not going to tip you for opening a beer for me and handing it to me over the bar.

 

[-CC-]

I am tipper, but I hate the idea of tipping. I worked in a warehouse for over 3 years, lifting heavy boxes onto peoples carts and I would sometimes end up spending over 40 minutes with a single customer who had a giant batch order for a movie set or office. Did I get tipped? Almost never. Then I go to a bar where a bartender takes two types of alcohol and blends them in a single glass and all of a sudden he is EXPECTED to receive a tip. The system is bullshit.

Sure, they might get a lower base wage, but how did that end up to be in the first place? And if you are going by the standard of "well he isn't getting paid as well as you, so you should tip" then why the fuck aren't we tipping the garbage disposal people when they pick up our trash? Surely they are doing me an equally if not greater service every week.

 

[The Butt]

Not much is up in my love life; still crushing hard on these coupla girls, but that's it.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Fucking got drunk with a co-worker and met my bro and those two girls at SNS but they were late and we left after about 10 mins of chilling with them. We had fags waiting for us to get in the fucking hot tub.

 

[SentinelSlain]

The girl I got to leave has posted on facebook, shortly before deleting the account and making new one, that I'm all she wants for Christmas, with a link to my profile in the post.

Urgh. I wish some girl I was really hot for felt this way. It's not that this girl isn't pretty, she just doesn't do it for me. She's a bit hefty.

 

[Mort Divine]

oh good fucking lord you are so infuriating

 

[Onder]

 

[Satanstoenail]

Yeah.

 

[Zephyrus]

I tip for good service. I've yet to meet a female bartender who was my type.

 

[King Richard]

 

[SentinelSlain]

I don't really care if me talking about wanting to get laid or mentioning that some girl likes me is annoying. It's massively in line with most of the content of this thread so suck it up.

Zeph I'm doing the exact thing to porkpal right now that HNGF is doing to you...hanging out all the time but too shit-scared of/turned off by the "relationship" label. That said, we've been going at this for a few months now, how long have you and HNGF been doing each other? I know you're anxiety-prone but it seems too soon to be worrying about The Future. I'm a big believer in "have as much fun as you possibly can and forget practicality and the future" when you meet someone who makes your pickle tickle.

That's been my attitude. I'm grateful for how it's going now. We've been at it since December 2nd. I breached the subject with her already so she knows that's what I'd like. I'll just wait for her to tell me she's ready and in the meantime enjoy this relationship-in-all-but-name. There's clearly mutual attachment beyond sex at this point. I'm not nearly as anxious about this as I was in previous relationships (I've been desensitized) but I do think longterm rather often. Thanks again, Laura.
