You know that bothers me because I always tip, and I think everyone should considering how important a haircut is. My haircut costs $13, and I always round up to $20, sometimes $25 if the girl's boobs touched my head a few times.
I work for Walgreens, as a Photo Team Specialist. I had been working there full time, but when they didn't offer me a shift leader position and a head photo specialist job instead, I declined the offer (barely a pay raise and double the work) and reduced my schedule to work only weekends.
My wife works full time now and I sit at home with the kids, taking care of the house and writing for Examiner.com, where I make enough money to pay my Cable/Electric each month, which is perfect as it gives me a reason to sit at home and play with the kids and watch TV all day.
Then I go in to Walgreens on the weekends, show up everyone there and make a little pocket change. Yes, right now life is good. Only took thirty god damn years to make it happen.
