WE live in The Villages --who by the way are know as notorious bad tippers. Most servers work hard and do not make a lot of money . if you notice, most of the servers here are not retirees like the majority of their client (us) They are youngsters raising families. As for myself I never look at the restaurants suggestions for tips. I just multiply the ENTIRE bill by 20%. The prices here in TV are never so high that 1 or 2 bucks will kill you ..Is it ? The only thing I ever take into account is the servers attitude and attentiveness and that is just a rounding concern a tip of 8.50 becomes 9 or 8 ..Makes it easier for me since I am not a math person . (Thats why I married a College Calculus professor LOL)

When I first got here I was annoyed that bartenders never buy back a drink ...until I realized I was paying 2.50 for a beer I was paying better than 5.00 back up north.

I realize everything in life is about our experiences from th past and our expectations.

My only thought is treat people with respect and it will return to you in spades.

Would you rater spend you life
