Reply #44: What you said! We don't go to many different places, but the places

[Obamanaut]

we do go to, we go fairly often.

Most of the staff in these places know us by now, and they are without exception friendly and cheerful. They also know that we never tip less than 20%, and we use the total including tax as you mentioned.

We don't always get the same server each time, but two or three of the ones who are not assigned to the section we are in stop by to say hello and ask about our health. I think that is very pleasant.
