Situation: It's a nice day and you want to smoke a cigar.
if my food delivery person drives an SUV to drop off my $13 Pad See Ew, he is getting a $40 tip in exchange for a series of question on how I can ace the interview to also be a food delivery person.Situation: You have come home from a long day or work and don't have the energy to focus on cooking, so you call for something to be delivered.
IF THIS WAS NEW YORK: blah blah blah .... You tip the delivery person a fair amount (10%, $2 minimum), and depending on their mode of transportation they will be grateful or not- if they are on a bike, the 10% is fine. If they are driving an SUV, they will scowl at you for anything less than 20%.

Geez. Reading this thread makes me think I should have booked a flight to Seattle and had a drink at ZigZag.
a waiter touching you sounds like a problem with the waiter. not the city.
Alvy Singer: The... the other important joke, for me, is one that's usually attributed to Groucho Marx; but, I think it appears originally in Freud's "Wit and Its Relation to the Unconscious," and it goes like this - I'm paraphrasing - um, "I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member." That's the key joke of my adult life...
