Mmmm... Tia's! You work at the one in Lewisville?

Having lived in Las Vegas and knowing first hand (almost) about the service industry (my brother was a craps dealer for many years before he got promoted to management), you make sure to tip and tip well. In certain eateries that are take-out or fast food, I feel no tip is necessary, but I do agree with AOPiHottie and try to make sure to tip in a sit-down restaurant that offers take-out. But then, only if the service is prompt and courteous, just like a sit-down meal.

P.S. - Ya gotta bartend in Vegas... an unwritten tradition in Vegas is that you tip the bartender or change person well when you hit a jackpot!
