| Something in your eyes
Makes me want to lose myself
Makes me want to lose myself
In your arms
There's something in your voice
Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts
The rest of my life
If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I've felt so low
If you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done
Chorus: Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where
I come from
Feels like home to me
Feels like home to me
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
A window breaks down a long dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright 'cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see through the dark there's light
If you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
If you knew how happy you are making me
I've never thought I'd love anyone so much
Chorus
Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
-Chantal Kreviazuk Feels Like Home
love that song...it was in the movie how to lose a guy in 10 days

There are SO
many people out there flooding the restaurants w/o any knowledge of how
to tip. Here is a short guide for the general public to follow. Feel
free to print out and store in your wallet and/or purse.
1. CHILDREN "THE LITTLE DEVILS":
If you have children, DO NOT let them, open and dump anything on the
table (ie; salt, sugar, etc). IF YOU DO, you must leave an extra $5 for
the server to clean up YOUR CHILD'S mess & to restock the now
unusable wasted items. We are neither their babysitter nor their
parent. The least you can do is pay us for the extra work. Also make
sure you control your kids and don't let them scream or run around the
restraunt. It's very distracting not to mention dangerous if they get
run over by a server with hot food in their hands.
2. "THE CAMPERS":
If you feel the necessity to stay for longer than 15 minutes after you
pay, its an extra $3 every 30 minutes. We make our money from the
tables. If you are in one and we can't seat it, we don't make money.
3. COMPLIMENTS AKA THE KISS OF DEATH OR THE VERBAL TIP:
Telling a server they are the best server they've ever had is not a
tip. If we are good, let us know by leaving us more money. We cant pay
our bills on compliments. Its not that we don't appreciate the praise,
its just that if you say that and then leave 10% it's an insult.
4. THE SALVATION PAMPHLETS:
Prayer cards and any other religious pamphlet is NOT a tip. It is
insulting that you assume we are w/o religion and must save us. Again,
like ..3, we cant pay bills w/prayer cards. We'd go to church on
Sundays if it wasn't mandatory to work on Sundays because EVERYONE who
goes to church follows it by eating out.
5. TIPPING:
It is not 1960. Cost of living has gone up dramatically since then. 18%
is the MINIMUM amount of what you should be tipping your servers.
Remember, our companies pay us minimum wage (minumum wage for servers
is $2.38 in Maryland). And we are taxed on 10 percent of your meal
automatically anyway. So if your meal is $100 and you leave $10 and we
tip out $4-5 to the busser, bartender, and whoever else then we pay tax
on 10 dollars and we make $5. It seems small but it adds up. How many
times do you eat out per week and do this?
6. THE COMPLAINERS:
If you get a discount because of your food was prepared wrong or
something, do not take it out of our tip. We didn't cook it. The cooks
get paid hourly regardless if the food sucks. However, we only make
what you give us.
7. THE FREE STUFF:
If you happen to get anything for free and you did not have a problem
with your dining experience, most of the time it is because the server
thinks you will realize that they are giving it to you for free. There
should be extra tip thanking the server for the free item. They could
get in a lot of trouble giving away free stuff. You should give them
hazard pay for it.
8. THE LATE ONES:
If you come into the restraunt 10 mins before closing or any time near
closing hurry up and order your food and get out. Closed means closed,
not social hour. It is so rude to sit there and take your sweet ass
time. We can't leave until you leave because we have to do sidework and
clean the table you are sitting at. We don't want to stand there
waiting for you for an extra hour just because you don't want to go
home. We recommend 24 hour establishments such as Dennys if you wish to
sit into the wee hours of the night.
9. THE TABLE HOGGERS:
If you only come in for coffee or a dessert, to do paper work, or to
have a meeting, don't sit there taking up our booths for hours. We are
not Starbucks or a hotel restraunt. If you want to sit for hours, go
there or else you better leave a good tip for us and camping fee
included.
10. THE GREET:
When we come up to the table to greet you and we ask how you are doing
please let us know. We honestly want to know how you are doing. If you
are in a bad mood we want to know that from the beginning. A confused
stare or complete silence does not suffice as a reply to "How are you
doing?". Also most of us are REQUIRED to say certain things during the
greeting, so please don't interrupt our greeting and say "I want
coffee", "Can we get some bread?", or "What are the soups?"
11. THOSE DAMN CELL PHONES:
Don't ever talk on your cell phone in a restraunt. This is probably the
rudest thing to do. If you must be on your cell, at least keep your
voice down in respect for other customers. If you are on your cell
phone when we walk up to greet your table we will walk away and not
return until you get off your phone. Just show some respect and give us
your attention for a couple of minutes.
12. TAKE-AWAY OR TO-GOS:
Always remember to tip the take-out order servers! They work just as
hard as a server, and hardly ever get tips for it! WE DESERVE TO BE
TIPPED TOO!
