For students, both traditional and non traditional, these jobs provide a decent income for the amount of time and flexibility.

I guess compassion is a sign of weakness.

Wait till the Mexicans figure out to run down hole tools and hotshot .JB. They are building the houses, laying the brick and doing most of the tile and concrete work around here......

Most of these kids don't remember the kin folk heading to Ohio, Michigan and PA during the bad times in OK.

Everyone of us has the ability to make choices on every single thing that we do. If you don't, then you're probably not human and are a robot.

This is all horrible rationalization for bad behavior. Going to a restaurant is an unneeded luxury, especially a nice restaurant. If you can afford to spend ridiculous amounts of money on food and overpriced beverages, you can afford to follow the proper etiquette expected at such an establishment. Nobody is forcing you to go to these places. You're more than willing to pay way more for a meal than you could buy and cook it for, and way more for drinks than they cost to buy at the liquor store...but somehow the tips expected at these joints cross some line?

At least own it, sons. Just say you are a bad tipper because you're a rude dude and it's no skin of yer back. Don't try and rationalize it. It's bad behavior - just admit that it is and stop giving us jive about how food-service workers are an elite class out rape out wallets.
