Yuck, I hate it when they pull that crap. It usually means they want a "dollar" dance on the floor. If someone asks me for a trial dance I say, "Sure, it's $5 if you want me to dance for you out here." If they don't want to pay it, I move on. Luckily that doesn't happen very often.

Glad that works for ya! I do a similar number when asked what I'm owed, but instead of 'minimum' I tack on 'plus my million dollar tip *cheekysmirk*'. Very rarely fails to get a tip, but it's silly enough to not offend diehard cheapskates.
I also heard a new waitress getting advice on how to get better tips- the veteran told her that when she gets a bad tip she should be like, 'Ohhh... only $X tip on a $$$Y tab..???' *poutysadface*
In any case though, I think the worst thing you can do is tell them just the flat minimum- I think you have to somehow call attention to the fact that you expect (and deserve!) a juicy tip.





I just wanted to say, as I originally thought, that this tip did not work for me. Hell, I even tried to cutesy it up. I was saying, " it's $25 minimum, and a $1,000 maximum"
I think I may try saying, "it's $25minimum if you hated it" lol...everyone loves my dances though.
Hmm maybe I should just not do this at all..Oh well, I'm off to debate this with myself again.
Some Douchebag: "[Pimp C] 12:43 am: its true we got to stick together the black people on SW CK you is teh condoleeza of SW"




i tried this too but it didn't work. they just gave me a weird look and handed me a 20...but maybe the whole tips are appreciated w/ a cutesy smile seems to work, maybe it just goes better w/ my personality?
