I was born a coal miner's son, reared in a coal mining town till I graduated from West Virginia University (dug ditches to help pay my way through college). When I find out that my restaurant waiter or waitress is working his/her way through college, I add a few bucks more to the usual tip I give.

As they say, if you want respect, you need to give it. So people who disrespect working people are reflecting on themselves, not the working person.

As Gracie points out, there are a few bad apples in every barrel, working person or not.
