Good point Jean......................BUT

Do you really think waiters care how much food is wasted? Now with that in
mind, lets only tip them in third world money. I wouldn't want to be called
wasteful with my money. So don't call me cheap when I only tip him 10 bucks
for the week. When he gets home that 10 will be worth 50 in his bank book
and he will say I was not wasteful with my money but my stomach was bigger
than my eyes.
