Tipping as an artform - the Playboy bunnies got it right

Now that we've discussed the various forms of tippers, there are several techniques that can be used to get a better tip.

The first, and obviously the best working, is flirtation. Flirting is always welcomed, except by bitter women, but it almost always works. Men and women alike appreciate coyness and over the top interest. Even gay men will tell you, that when their female server flirts with them, the service seems better. Besides, most of the men I see haven't talked to a young 20-something the way that they talk to me for about 15 years, and that means 20+ percent.

Secondly, is appearance: The way we look is a reflection of ourselves and most of the time you want that reflection to be sex. Sex sells and people love a scantily clad cocktailer in fishnets. It doesn't always have to be clothes - or the lack thereof - but the way we're put together. If you come in without make-up and in your ex-boyfriends t-shirt turned inside out, people are not going to like it. I am extremely low maintenance when it comes to going to classes or anywhere else out in public, but when I work, it takes me at least 45 minutes to get ready.

As an addendum to number two, cleavage of course plays a big factor, the more the better. Don't get offended when they look because it means more money for you. Refer to the cleavage scale in my first post.

Thirdly is service. Bad service can be overlooked if you look good and act appropriate. Geriatrics aren't big fans of you crossing your arms and pushing your girls up, but they do appreciate consideration. I always try to make a comment about how the light really is low as they squint at the menu, not that they're so old that they can't handle mood lighting. People don't care that it takes 20 minutes to get a Carlsberg, if you drop off Playboy style.




No matter what, when in doubt unbutton your shirt, let down your hair and pretend your waiting on the best sex partner you've ever had.
