It was tough saying San Pellegrino with a fake French or Spanish accent. But the tips were incredible for a kid who buttered your French bread. I'd work 3 days a week and make over 500 bucks...
Heck, for that kind of money at that age, I would have spoken in whatever accent they wanted! I remember waiting tables in a fancy restaurant downtown my first year of college. It can be a tough job but it was enjoyable for the most part. Despite my complete lack of coordination and balance, I managed to deliver most plates to my tables in one piece.

You know, I was a waitress all through high school and college, and most countries don't tip waitstaff like in the US but they get paid a sort of minimumish living wage.;
It is really interesting how different countries approach the idea of tipping. In some areas it is even considered an insult to tip at a restaurant.

    What is it about the 1.2 coils that you like so much? I have not tried those because I was always happy with the 1.6 or .8.

    I feel like I get more airflow with the 1.2

    Unfortunately, the meaning of t.i.p.s. has been lost in this country and it is now expected regardless of service because it is done at the end of the meal rather than at the beginning.

    Just like most cocktail waiters don't know they are supposed to tip the bartender.

    If I could, I’d trade all my other ones I bought for the 1.2’s.
    Turns out I did write down my thoughts on the 1.2. For me they were lacking in taste, air and didn’t last as long.

    Good morning random folks Have you any plans today?
    Good morning! Well, when I get back into town tonight, I am going to finally try to jam a coil and some cotton into the Ares 2. I'll finally find out what all this RTA stuff is about firsthand.

    Morning, mixers, happy Sunday :)

    Weather guessers blew it yesterday, barely made it to 80 when they were talking 90+. Hope they got it right for today, since they were only predicting high 70s :) Alas, still no rain...

    Good morning. I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I’ve worked all weekend. All Friday night, 10 hours yesterday, and all morning today. But I did manage to fix my program, and I learned some things along the way. Now I just need to go do some reports and I’ll be done. Of course the new guy who screwed it up is denying it, and the person who was supposed to train him is 8 months pregnant, so I guess I’ll have to just put this behind me kindly...and watch him like a hawk. I’ve offered to help. Sigh

    I really need to get outside today and get some fresh air and put down the computer mouse. Chores are behind now too. o_O

    I want to make LMN# today. I’ll probably have to sub vendors but that’s ok. I do have the flavors.

    Chick-fil-A is one of our favs. I always got the chicken salad sandwich but they quit offering it. So then I started getting the market salad. And now that I’m limiting meat I probably won’t eat there but my son loves it.

    Their lemonade is fantastic. I use the gallon jugs that the lemonade is sold in for my Brita filtered water. They are thick and sturdy.

    I doubt I go completely vegan. I kept up with my meals on myfitnesspal for a few days and my protein stayed too low. So I will probably keep eggs in my diet. And that’s ok. I’m just trying to eat healthier and I have managed to do that for sure with lots of veggies.

    I know I should probably buy some more boxes of coils for my stash. Maybe I will look into adding some 1.2. How do they measure up in regards to longevity?

    I feel like I get long life from them. I have several attys going at once so don’t pay attention to how much liquid I run through them.

    Not the experience I’m having with them at all.

    I rebuilt mine again this morning. I put in a twisted 28x3 coil. It’s a little better flavor but still not great.
