I was the manager of a local bistro not to long ago and when I first started working there the tips were pooled in a jar, then I noticed some of the waitress' wernt pulling the weight, just happy to stand by and take the pot at the end of the day, well that wasnt gonna happen on my planet...so I arranged a 'meeting' and told them what I thought...

"were gonna have a 2 week trial...i see girls here that work their guts out and get really good tips while some of you just smirk and take take take at the end of the day...get out there and smile, make the customers feel welcome, talk as if you know them, and see what difference it makes"

After a lot of snidy remarks they got to it, (had to sack one or two though for pocketing) and what a remarkable change!
