Tip
Nov 24th 2009 13:11
If I eat something in a restaurant or a first food store, it will be more expensive in America than in Japan since basically foods are more expensive and I must pay tip.
もしレストランとかファーストフードストアでものを食べたら、アメリカでは日本に比べてたかくつく。基本的に食べものは高いし、チップを払わなければならないからだ。
It's interesting system because I can show how much I satisfied with their service by an amount of tip.
チップの量でどれだけ彼らのサービスに満足したかを示すことができるから、面白いシステムだと思う。
I heard, however, that it is important to pay tip beforehand to get a good seat in some musicals or concerts.
でも、いくつかのコンサートやミュージカルでは前もってチップを払うことが良い席に案内してもらうためには重要だと聞いた。
It seems to be a bribe.
わいろみたいだ。
Giving tip to get a good seat... people may think of it as an elegant way, but I can't find out what is different between them.
よい席をえるためにチップを渡す。。。人はそれを上品な方法とみなしているのかもしれない。でも、チップと賄賂の違いがなんなのかが分からない。
Of course, they must be different.
もちろんそれは違うはずだ。
Maybe I merely hate it because it forces me to pay more money in a restaurant.
たぶん、チップのせいでもっと金を払わなければならないから単に嫌っているだけなんだろう。
Yesterday I went to a Mexican restaurant named Santa Fe.
きのうサンタフェというメキシコ料理店に行った。
The dishes were very delicious but I paid $8.00 as tip which was 20 percent of check. orz
とっても美味しかったけど会計の2割のチップとして8ドル払った。
I ate a nacho and a Fajita, surprisingly, which appeared to be same.
ナチョとファヒタを食べた。驚いたことに、それらは同じもののように見えた。
The beef was good.
牛肉が美味しかった。
In Japan, beef become more and more expensive since an importation is limited due to BSE.
BSEのせいで輸入が制限されているから、日本では牛はだんだん高くなっている。
Students can't eat beef.
学生は牛さんを食べることができない。
But I can eat beef here because they are cheaper in America!
でも、アメリカでは牛肉はやすいので牛をたべることができる！
Unfortunately, the beef is still hard after roasting it.
残念ながら、焼いただけでは牛肉はとってもかたい。
I always wondered how to cook them.
いつもどう料理するかかんがえていた。
・・・
It seems that I should write more sentences, but I'm tired.
もっと書くべきなんだろうだけど疲れた。

If I eat something in a restaurant or at fast food, it will be more expensive in America than in Japan. Basically foods are more expensive and I must pay tip. (You only tip restaurants or buffets where you are waited on. Less at buffets)
It's interesting system, I can show how much I was satisfied with their service by the amount of tip.
I heard, however, that it is important to pay tip beforehand to get a good seat in some musicals or concerts. (Less, true. But some restaurants and shows have hosts that will seat you better depending on cash influence)
people may think of it as an elegant way, but I can't find out what is different between them. (Again, it is NOT very typical to tip for seats, it is a rare trend in high-population areas)

I am a waitress and we very much appreciate your tips. Most people don't know we DON'T make minimum wage here. we often make 1/2 or less and we depend on tips to earn a living wage. :(
Also, I personally think tips should be earned...a reflection of the charisma and effort of your server. What I, as a server, consider proper tips: 10% if service was acceptable but not great... 15% if it met your standards, you had filled drinks, and they were nice. 20% suggest a job VERY well done and anything above that is just a compliment.
