feeling horrible that it is even in my mind like that
Oh, honey, don't feel bad. It's still money you have to come up with, having a practical thought pop into your head unbidden is far from heartless.
Has Owen been watching Clerks?
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Question: we're having the heating ducts cleaned today (right now, as a matter of fact). Do I tip the dudes? I'm thinking no, but then I don't know, b/c it's a service issue.
I guess not, b/c I wouldn't tip the dude who fixes the condenser in the a/c unit, and this feels similar. Although it's a longer process (~2 hours).
Thoughts?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I wouldn't tip them.

Though, considering how much nastiness was in the vents, they deserve so much more than a tip.
They deserve beer and hookers.
I have beer. No hookers, though.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Cash, you need a stash of Leggs containers.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Teppy, I'd say no. HVAC guys usually are paid pretty well. And it's not typical to tip them.

I don't tip the plumber and their job can be just as nasty, and most likely even nastier than the duct cleaners.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I think duct work is more like a skilled trade - like mechanics, electricians, plumbers, etc. Tipping not necessary, but no one says no to a plate of brownies if you are in the mood to be generous.

Hey gang. My office mate is seeking a gift for his wife. Apparently she had her car broken into a couple years ago and they stole a hard-to-find CD. Seems she still has the jewel case, but wants the music back. I ask here, because, well, it's Spike's band, well, James Marsters band.
The album is “Mad Brilliant” and it is no longer available for purchase. Here is a link to the Ghost of the Robot website: [link]
Anyone can help him out, feel free to e-mail me, profile addy ok.
