Yes. The sellers of leasehold properties will tell prospective suckers there is no fee simple land left. There is but it'll cost more.Whazzup wrote:Hobie - do they still have fee simple and leasehold land there?

Under the DDP as it exists right now the server gets a fixed amount of gratuity for each diner, based on the amount the restaurant is credited with for the meal and not the menu price of the items ordered. So even if a person puts an additional tip on the slip they sign it does not get charged to them and the server does not get it.JAG wrote:Why is it wrong if the tip is included? Many times I would leave an extra tip, because I received exceptional service, but not always.
Back when I waited tables, we always used to fudge adding the minimum tip to a bill for large parties. If it was a table full of high school kids, then by all means add the mandatory tip because otherwise, you won't get one... But if it's a table of adults and I clearly have a good rapport with them then I would not, generally add the mandatory tip. Usually, you get quite a bit more trusting them to tip on their own. People who see the mando-tip on their bill usually won't tip any extra. I also worked at a place that gave coupons to certain guests for a their dining plan. The coupons said, right on the front, in good sized type: "Tax Included. Tip NOT Included." Needless to say, the hotel had to start giving us a few bucks per coupon because we weren't seeing ANY tips from those people. :mad:mechurchlady wrote:What did she get for her hard work?
