No worries here, I know I can come across as being curt sometimes. I just tend to say exactly what I'm thinking, all the time. The empress at home still has issues with it, so I realize it can be abrasive.Originally Posted by LivinInThe603
But when I am being judgy, there is no mistaking it.
Thanks again! I can be a straight up ***** on text.... don't always mean it! I can certainly see your point, it seems like paying on top of paying... that's the feeling I get when people who stay at sandals or csa or Riu want to know the best places to eat or drink... why would you pay after you've already paid... so I see your point. But honestly, it's just me, I travel alone for now, so a few extra bucks here and there are built into my travel budget. I always worry about being too cheap, actually.
Hope we are in a good spot, you and me! Thanks again!
For sure, and I'm with you on tipping on a drink, and I would probably give a couple bucks to the greeter, I just thought $10 a bit steep. I was thinking of how many people do they greet and take through to the lounge in a given day? A hundred? I really don't know, but doing the math on $10/pp (if everyone were so generous) that would be a real nice gig. The only thing that does sometime irk me about tipping everywhere is the expectation it tends to create, and feeding the "beggy beggy" thing. I tend to tip modestly where appropriate, and more generously when I feel someone truly went above and beyond.
And yeah, we're good for sure. There is really only one person on this site that I don't care for, and he knows who he is. I have no issues with you in any way, and I never have. I do think you are overly generous, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I like that you're enthusiastic about Jamaica, need more people that are positive. Keep doing what you do, but give the west end a shot one of these trips. It may not suit your style, but it's a different experience entirely to stay there rather than just spending part of the day. Respect boss lady.
