Oh dear!! here we go again..... I do not agree with this person, my daughter was a waitress whilst going through uni and her wages were nothing compared to what she had to put up with, and many people forget to leave tips in this country when paying by card.

A lot of brits who go to florida are first timers who maybe don't know about the tipping custom. This unfortunately gives the impression that we brits are a tight lot, you'll have to excuse the bias but I believe we are generous by nature.
when I eat out there I always add 15% because it's the custom,But I honestly believe some of them are getting a lot more money than I am

Hey Jeff, thanks for posting that one. I laughed so much my stomach hurt. [msnsmile2][msnsmile2] I can only assume that there are waiters all across Orlando blowing like Krakatoa after reading that. Serves them right (pun intended!!!)
