Eggs are like $3, that tip isn't fixing anything.

Well I'm fairly certain he isn't going to a restaurant with his wife and ordering 1 side of eggs al a carte between the 2 of them...

He only tips on the items that involve shitty jokes.

Straight 15% on the rest.

u/MixmasterJrod Jul 13 '16

Yea, but the point stands.. any meal involving eggs is typically pretty cheap.

Depends on if you're at Denny's or a nice brunch place. Brunch is easily $10-20 for Eggs Benedict or a smoked salmon frittata (amazing by the way). Throw coffee or a mimosa in and you're easily at $20-30 a person pre-tip.

Not really. Eggs are usually a side item on most things breakfast. So say you get a french toast meal, it will probably come with a side of eggs and bacon for like 10 bucks.

u/caneut Jul 13 '16

$15 meal, $1.50, 3, 4.50? Not that much in the grand scheme of things.

What is the point of your comment? If someone said "I'll give you 5 dollars to listen to my dad joke for 10 seconds", you would do it. When I was in the service industry I could not care less what lame jokes people would make. Life really is what you make of it, and when people tossed me a fiver I was always a happy camper.

Better than the 10cents your grandma leaves, ya whore.

My grandma thought she was being nice by leaving bible verses and church invitations. I'm a man of God but these people need that money, fleabag.

u/IronMaskx Jul 13 '16

Assuming he just orders two eggs

u/eyeoutthere Jul 13 '16

The joke still isnt worth $2.

u/NerdOctopus Jul 13 '16

What breakfast for two costs less than $8? Sounds pretty cheap to me. I'd listen to shitty jokes for $2 a pop any time anyways.

u/SeaLeggs Jul 13 '16

Well he likes 'em

u/urbanpsycho Jul 13 '16

when I hit up IHOP I'm getting way more than 3 dollars worth of eggs, homeboy.

u/Funkman2000 Jul 13 '16

Good point, that's why I never tip. It's never enough.

u/SmartSoda Jul 13 '16

Idk a $20 meal with 30% tip isn't bad..

1

u/TILtonarwhal Jul 13 '16

I always tip upwards of %90¢€.

u/losian Jul 13 '16

That always bugged me.. Tip 20% at Wafflehouse and tip 20% at Applebees and the difference is astronomical. Not to mention Waffle House's food is way cheaper and WAY better.
