Karma

I used to be a decent tipper. I'm not sure what happened but this has changed. It is something I would like to change back. I vow to thoroughly think through the tip before I leave the restaurant from now on. As it stands the bad tips I leave are more to do with my stupidity along with a little cheapness.


Today I went out with an old friend we each ordered a non alcoholic beverage so it is very cheap for the restaurant. The server said to not worry about it which was the beginning of my issues. Normally for dinner I double or triple the tax to end at a decent tip for the hour it takes to eat. I had not idea what to tip so I left the cost of my beverage.

The problem is that we were there for 2 hours. 2$ is very crappy. add in that it was for 2 hours and I'm a horrible person. Seriously waitresses do not get paid that much and i'm thinking if i had left her $10 it would have been nice, the cheapest i should have gone is $5. I'm not sure what my friend left her but it should not be left for someone else because that is even worse. making someone else make up for your bad tipping is wrong on soo many levels.

Anyway the karma kicked in on the way home. A deer came running out of the woods as I was driving my parents car. I hit the breaks luckily it did not pause long as I came to a stop not far from where it was. I have no idea if i would have hit it but i'm sure it was karma biting me in the ass for being thoughtless.
