I have another month free of netflix offer if anyone is not yet using Netflix and wants to try it out.
Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

Quick: if you are already paying a delivery fee (furniture,) no tip, right?

not your mom's socks.
usually, we tip. Anyone who carries something that I don't need to carry? And it's hot? yeah. Doesn't need to be much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I agree with Sox, although I generally take the lead from the delivery people -- sometimes they just put the stuff down and take off, and I don't chase anyone down to tip them.
My favorite example of someone letting you know they expected a tip was this woman at the head of a taxi line in Las Vegas -- she waved you over to your cab with a hand full of cash.

But I'm already paying the delivery fee (it's a small operation, so I'm pretty sure he gets the money) calculated off the fact I have stairs.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Another awesome event in San Francisco: Cupcake Camp
We're mainly geeks, so it's derived from BarCamp.
We will schedule different cupcake tastings for different time slots (e.g. by flavor, baker, or store), similar to how BarCamp works.

If it were me, I would still stick a $10 in my pocket, in case he is expecting a tip.
ION, I just had a long conversation about wedding etiquette, and my boss was saying she got into a huge flamewar on some board by saying she didn't think anyone needed to be invited "and guest" if you didn't want to. What say you people?

I swear to god, all the tipping rules drive me batshit.

Matt, he is clearly going to fit in.

I will say, the rule of thumb in NYC is apparently tip everyone for everything, and more money than you'd think, but I don't necessarily follow that.
