I only tip if they derserve to be tipped. This basically means if you're a hot female I'll tip you or if you did better than ok at your job.

i tip if something deserves it. Never tip the bin men as they are cunts and leave stuff all the time. Tip the postie at xmas as he takes nuff parcels for me.
ive never been tipped, although i have been bribed.

I get tipped in the form of cakes all the time when I go the extra mile for someone. Quite decent, but i'd prefer the cash.

Please don't say it was by some men from a Chineese company.

Have I missed out on some in-joke or did some kid from here really give a shopworker a packet of crisps as a tip?

Do you not give out the odd Waggon Wheel when the lady in Lush puts in that extra bit of effort and finds a soap you really like?

I usually tip more than 10% at a nearby Korean restaurant/takeaway that I visit quite often because I fancy her.

i just always bung down a fiver for anything up to fiddy, and a tenner for anything over fiddy to a hundred and then any fancy gaffs over a hundred get a score.
couldnt do that old 'it was 30 pounds so 3 pounds is 10 per cent' stuff.
far too petty for me.

Don't go for a drink with X, will only end in your getting nicked for sexual harassment/assault on the busty barmaid

Yo no need to be so hostile, if you wanted to go on a bro-date you should've just said so.

I wish someone would give me some crisps at my work, had a few boxes of chocolates before which was awesome, except every other cunt at work wants to eat them.
