First time I ever used a coupon at a restaurant

for every time you act like that to a server you earn 10 bad experiences from future servers. Just be patient, it's going to take some time for karma to balance itself out based on your past actions.

what way, what actions?

piggybacking off the chain restaurant thread, how much are you expected to tip wait staff at a buffet style restaurant? No offense to anyone but all they do there is fill the tea glass once or twice. You get your own clean plates and food. I don't feel as if I should tip as much at these places as compared to places I actually get waited on.

I just do a dollar a person for a buffet. WHY?

1. They don't bring you any food.

2. They may or may not refill your glass since usually I find at buffets the glasses are huge.

3. Some places you pay upfront before you eat like Golden corral, some places you pay at the counter afterwards, meaning your server has to come by to give you your check.

I don't count them taking dirty dishes in the tip, because I could care less if they take them or not. I usually sit at a decent size booth or table, so I have enough room to keep the dirty dishes stacked and it doesn't bother me a bit. To me, service is something you benefit from, taking my dirty plates I don't benefit from them doing that in my eyes.

Now at cheap buffets like at CiCi's pizza, I don't tip at all since YOU have to do EVERY SINGLE THING with getting your drinks, you have to order at the counter and pay at the counter, refill your drinks yourself. The only thing they do is take your dirty plates, which as I said, I don't view that as any service in my eyes.

I have waited tables before and treat all my servers like gold, even when things go wrong, because I know how tough the job is.

While the job IS VERY HARD, I am having more servers time and time again at even different restaurants out of state out of town, etc. or restaurants we have never been to before even, servers that just don't try their best. I am finding more and more servers being very lazy. Things such as one waiter once we had that we had only got an appetizer and some drinks as a snack type of outing in the middle of a Saturday afternoon. The waiter didn't write it down and I only added a side of ranch even. He comes with a tray with food(it's not busy keep this in mind), he hands us a side of beans and a side of rice when we ordered quesadillas. When he handed us our real order from the tray, he forgot the ranch(OF COURSE). See, he was too lazy to write it down. He was too lazy to compare the ticket since he didn't write it down. He was too lazy to compare which table had which items. I am finding more and more stupid, lazy ass servers like that. THAT is the type of servers I hate, despised, loathe. Whatever happened to hard working people? I know they do have some out there, because we have had many, but WHY are these type of lazy people exists? They only make $2.13/hr, you would THINK it would be some type of INCENTIVE? It seems a lot of servers like that feel they are ENTITLED to that tip no matter HOW they treat you or how lazy they get.

In one year how many times have you eaten at a restaurant springs?

Probably around 115 or so. This is twice on each weekend at least, also counting holidays if we go out to eat such as we usually eat out on labor day. So I basically though to myself 52 weeks in a year TIMES 2 which is 104 and then add a bit more for extra times we may have gone out. I have to count our vacation we went on too this year that we went to a bunch of restaurants then as well, even counting ones where I just got a couple of drinks.

A few years ago, we went out even more like an extra day even.

      Bears fire Matt Eberfus

      His o loaded with swift, dj, Keenan and Rome was inconsistent at best. The d was bad. And the game management was atrocious and lost them games.  He was terrible and made the team worse. I wish they kept him

      That is my point.  I think teams make a huge mistake when they pay their decent to average QBs top QB money because they feel that they have to match the market or lose their investment--There is no way, for example, that Tua or Prescott or Murray should all be making more than Mahomes--I mean, Dak makes $15m per season more than Mahomes. People say, "Well, when its his turn...." But that is not how it should be--so my point was that Bryce can be doing mediocre to good enough in 2 years, but the way it is going, you have to pay him at the starting QB rate--currently $60m.  So even if you think he will continue to improve, at $60 m, he would eliminate any chance for a ring---so my view is, if he is not elite, you cut him.  So you draft QBs now and see what you can make of them.

      With two 4ths and three 5ths I’m hoping we can kill it on adding depth. Take a gamble with the two 7ths.  First 3 picks id love to address the defense. I expect Tuttle, Robinson, and Jewell to all be on the 2025 roster but not after that. Be a good time to add depth and let them develop a year.
