soundian Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 ...be ashamed you freeloading bastards. The staff got a total of 3 in tips, no food and worked their asses off while everyone else swilled free beer and food down their neck and didn't even chuck them a token quid each. I am disgusted.

That shows you why you have to work your ass off to get a pittance in this business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundian Posted February 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 Wouldn't have been so bad if quite a lot of the 'foreigners' weren't on expenses while they're here as well. At least Aberdonians are meant to be stingy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ragudave Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 Well I have never tipped bar staff in my life although I'm always very nice to them. But if we had been sitting down to food we would have tipped the waiting staff a few squid per head.Aye I agree that 3 squids in total is worse than nothing - it would only have bought a pint of that cobra beer...

ghost Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 surely they got paid for their work?bar staff always have and always will get shit tips, apart from christmas (if they're lucky).so glad i don't have to do that anymore - it's a thankless job.

M.A.R.T Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 oh yeah...they cant provide enough plates for everyone and dont have the courtesy to label the foods and they expect a tip!? pfft! i do think some people were taking the piss with the amounts of food they were taking. i watched mike from the cavern leave the table with his mouth full and a mountain of chicken on his plate. it was a beautifull sight. he claimed it was his supper. triptych looks pretty good this year.bob moog and trans am was enough for me to cream my pants.
