I didn't have this issue at Xtabi, was backing up another poster who was being ridiculed over the change, and don't appreciate the negative connotations you are attaching to me, re: tourist vs. traveller. Why can't people on this forum have a discussion without resorting to name calling? Why do we bash anyone who says something that is not 100% positive? Why do people continue to respond without actually basing their response on what was actually said? (The complaint was that it was an extra 20 cents more than everyone else was charging, AND the bartender took it upon himself to keep the change, an additional 80 cents).
Yes, it's not a lot of money. But where is the line drawn? When does it become enough to warrant discussion? Why can't discussion happen without people taking it so personally?
