Do you tip your barista? What about your doctor?
First wank so TIP WELL and I promise not to use the cheap lotion. You believe me, right?

After a nice exchange earlier today, I was actually beginning to have warm feelings about

seattle. Not for long.

deguisement freely admits she has already ~~wanked~~ ~~trolled~~ posted in the New Yorkers comm about tipping baristas. Surprisingly, that did not go completely swimmingly. My favorite comment was:

I'll tip my NY baristas like i do my Seattle baristas when they make drinkable fucking lattes like my Seattle baristas do.

Whee! They're off.

gomezticator and

oui_je_danse are of course involved in tl;dr threads of nothingness. Some highlights:

SO bartenders don't deserve tips either?

wouldn't know; i'm straight edge.

So a couple hours later, the OP makes another damn post. This time, she wants to know our Thoughts On Tipping McDonalds. Bonus wank on stripper morality.

	Yeah, an Americano is half expresso, half hot water. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

The ratio depends on the shop. Starbucks has standardized ratios--which are usually pretty weak, in my experience. (Half espresso, half water seems way too strong for a Starbucks drink. Then again, I've never had an Americano at Starbucks. I like some of their flavors but I'm not a fan of their actual coffee.)

Where I work, if you order an Americano we immediately ask how many shots you want. It's not the best thing to order unless you know what you want or aren't shy about asking questions.

	And this is why I'd totally fail at being a barista. XD (Reply to this)(Parent)
