I wonder how many cooks, waiters/waitresses have spit in Trump's food

[C Moon]

over the years.
This latest tip thing is so fucking ridiculous. Why on earth would the president of the U.S. focus on waiters/waitresses tips?
Something probably happened: like he found out one of his enemies' wives is a waitress or something.

4. Thanks! I cannot believe his stupid base thinks he is for the working man/woman!

[Wellstone ruled]

2. Oh Boy,yuge number.

5. This is why he sends someone to fetch his McDonald's

HE's worried about someone messing with his food (perhaps if he weren't such an asshole this wouldn't be a problem). When there's already 5 Big Macs on the assembly line and a junior staffer fetches the McD's, the employees won't know who the Big Mac is going to.

12. The Secret Service oversees the preparation of a president's food.

Yes, even McDonald's. Do you really think any president goes and gets his own food?

6. Lung oyster, I had more but I have to stop there

I love a good joke but this thread hasn't gone there yet.

Maybe later I'll check back, I was a commercial fisherman.

You have no idea.......

8. Gross! That took me a few seconds.

11. Put five men on a fishing boat, stay out

In the Bering for 30-40 days, you have to make your own entertainment.

I had crabbed for years, went deep sea trawling for a few years, crab trip usually 16 days at most, trawling you stay out till you need to get fueled up, no 50 hour stretches on deck either.

Irishmen taught me how to trawl, those guys have a sense of humor that can take off paint, I have story's and jokes you wouldn't believe.

Damn that was a fun time.

"Value Added Seasoning"

I can't quit laughing....

7. or peed? Oh, wait....

[C Moon]

9. "Oh wait..." :D Yes, he'd probably like it better that way.

[brooklynite]

13. None?

Because cooks/waiters/waitresses are professionals?

[Tipperary]

16. Yes, this is a disgusting thought to have. I have never worked in food service, but if I did

that is something that would never cross my mind. No matter who the customer was.

[Hekate]

14. None. They are, in their way, professionals. Also he fears poisoning, which is why he eats McDonalds

In addition, his Mar a Lago staff is all his.

[C Moon]

15. I actually meant throughout his life, but yeah, I'll bet they are careful about his cooks/servers

now that he's been placed in our White House.

[lindysalsagal]

17. Or worse.

That's why he's at his own golf courses.

18. Servers appreciate cash tips.

I've been told that some restaurants hold all credit card tips until the end of the week or even month before they're doled out.

She said it's really nice to get a $20 for a table in cash.

[C Moon]

19. Yes. I'm going to start doing that.

[SonofDonald]

20. Yes cash only

We have a local Chinese buffet that's very popular and we found that the owner keeps all the tips paid by card., so it's cash only for tips.

You kind of wonder about the dominance the owner uses over employees as none of them seem to have been in the states all their lives.

Cash doesn't end up in the owners pocket.

I hope.
