Yey! went out for in Berkeley for only the second or third time in living memory ... fun fun fun

Its done my mood a lot of good ... I am going to attack this bastard essay in a moment and then all will be quiet for a little bit.

he he he the bar we went to was so tacky ... I think it was called ryans or something.

How does tipping work in american bars? I heard it was customary to give a dollar a drink but that seems way too much ... maybe if your getting a bunch of drinks then a buck or too feels about right or am i being stingy?

Anyway have to go finish essay

Oh if anyone likes whiny indie music like I do check out spank radio ... i forget the url but you can google it if you want.

menotyou:
Bartenders income depends almost entirely on tips. If you're paying on a drink by drink basis...then $1 per drink is pretty appropriate because not only do they have to get your drinks, they also have to walk back to the register and finish the transaction. If you have a tab they don't have to carry around your cash and it's easy for them to just put a notch next to your name whenever they have a chance.

The way I see it: Tip my bartenders big and they will give me preferential service.
