    I hate overly friendly waiters who make me feel guilty if I don't smile back.

    Lol... I make around the same if not more than overly friendly waiters. At the end of the day it's about getting what you need, anticipating needs and getting your food in and out quickly. I can joke and make a table laugh but I'm not going to literally suck up to you.

    Depend on service, 10% minimum up to 25% if they go above and beyond the call of duty. My wife is a cheapskate, she is 10% to 0%.

    Tipping needs it's own thread mighty mod.

    20% normally. I don't tip but 10% or so on take out though.

    I don't know where people go where they get terrible service. I can count on one hand, and have a few fingers left, the amount of times I've been displeased with my service. Even when food has taken a little long, or something was wrong, I tend to give the benefit of the doubt to the server if they apologize or are clearly trying to do their best. Sometimes I have bad days at work and my performance isn't where I'd like it to be, but I get paid what I make regardless. Sometimes things go wrong for a server and pricks just love it to happen so they can justify being a prick. I've rarely, if ever, had service where it seemed the server just straight up didn't care and there was clear lack of effort.

    AA, if your wife seriously tips 10% max, she should not be going out to eat. That is absurd. Personally, I would not go out to eat with a person that did that because I'd feel responsible for paying the rest of their tip. When a person I'm with tries to skimp on the tip out of nothing but cheapness, be sure they end up ponying up more if our checks are together.

    I tip 20% for pretty standard service. If I enjoyed everything and nothing was wrong, I don't really go below that.

    My vacation starts next week and I still have to find a maid service to clean up our 2nd house on the beach. It's so hard to find good help these days.

    One of the main issues of fatherhood that nobody ever tells you about is that at some point your kids will reach a certain age where they will constantly be hitting you right in the balls, either with elbows or foreheads. This is a first world problem because my kids aren't dying from Ebola.

    I've been teaching so much tennis lately that I haven't had enough time to play for leisure.

    And in addition to that, a few weeks ago I was playing sooo much tennis that my body was too beat up to lift weights later on in the day.

    You ever have one of your and anyone with you, serves timed for mph? Bill James is adamant that a very good Tennis player could make it in mlb without to many problems.
