Re: My dad's a doctor. -- edited because I was overly rude. Danae al'Thor Send a noteboard - 26/02/2010 02:30:40 PM
Why do you tip or choose not to?
It's, like, mean not to? In a free, democratic society, someone has been nice enough to serve me. Just because it's hir job does not make it nice to them.


Do you tip your doctor for his service?


And my regular doctor is a very good friend of his.

In short: I don't pay my doctors at all.

In any case, I'm not standing on principle. I tip my waiter, I don't tip my doctor. I won't apologise OR "defend" my practices. I do what the fuck I want.

Edited: So. If you were trying to be confrontational, I don't appreciate it. If you were just curious, I didn't realise, and therefore didn't appreciate it. And still don't, but that's more me than you.
