Tuitsuro:
People tend to misunderstand the this; you still get minimum wage with a tip job. The restaurant is allowed to deduct 'x' from the wages they give you based on the amount of tips you recieve, down to a certain amount, but if you were to make no tips, they're still required to pay you minimum wage. So, for example, if you work one table in an hour, and they don't tip you, your boss has to pay you minimum wage for that hour. However, if that table tipped you $10, then the pay you'd get from the restaurant would go down to somewhere around 3 or 4 dollars, instead of the 7 something it is now. You're still making $13 - $14 an hour, however, instead of the 7 and change you'd make with no tips. Supposedly, this incentivizes good service, but since everyone tends to think 15% is almost mandatory, some servers tend to expect it just for average service. It's sort of a catch-22 situation.

They checked out the alternative.
Seriously, PALIN and an old guy who might die any minute ?
They tried really hard to make George W. Bush jr. look good in comparison.
I really dont understand why they couldnt change that law that only born americans can be president, so Schwarzenegger could try it. He's the only serious candidate the Republicans have left.

No, that's Chinese Delivery Man. Dale doesn't even wear a costume. Hmmm... Something Luke Cage-ish for Dale? Powered armour like Nick Fury from Iron Man 2? A big striped wooly hat for Rasta Fasta Pizza Man?
"No Tips For Alliance Scum!" (intoned in a Darth Vader voice if you have the larynx for it) deserves to become a meme. It's much funnier than "No Soup For You". Dale learns the hard way that it's best you leave your personal life at home when you go to work, especially if you rely on tips (which are un-Australian by the way, though we've been corrupted by foreign visitors).
Is it cold in here?:
Why doesn't Dora charge more for drinks, pay her employees more, and drop the tip jar?
Of course, that would deny the customers the opportunity to express their gratitude for the friendly and efficient service.
