Thanks. Are you for real that you are going to penalize the tip more?

Can you tell us a bit more about yourself? How old are you? What do you do for a living? Where do you live? Where are you from originally?
38yrs old. I work in an office.(done office work mostly, worked at a donut shop/diner at my first job back in 1998-I started working late since my parents wanting me to concentrate on school(I was almost 21yrs old for my first job). I got a raise within only a month and a half of starting from $5.15/hr min. wage to $5.50/hr. I made tips as well, worked off and on until 2002, but it was around a little over 2yrs worth.
I live in Louisiana. I have been married since 2002. I met my husband on online personals back then it was all free to post a personal ad, so that was pretty cool. I don't have kids, don't want any EVER, EVER, EVER!! I am just not a motherly person at all, nowhere near. I love my freedom I can do what I want, when I want, spend the money I want, etc. I also greatly fear getting fat if I were to get pregnant ever, so I am really hope that never happens. I have never been fat or even chunky even. I diet each week to be able to eat what I want on weekends or holidays, etc. I went to college originally for nursing, but found it was too hard for me and I also didn't like some parts of it.I don't have pets, don't like pets. I love dancing, singing karaoke, watching tv, swimming, bowling, playing pool, etc.
I am a moralistic type of person that I try to do the right thing and expect others to do the same. I am not perfect, but so is nobody. I at least try to be a good person. So that's why I write these rants/pet peeves, because things bother me a lot. I have always been extremely sensitive. I got made fun of in junior high school, so it really made me feel worse. Like once even a girl that had my same name she threw up on the bus, this guy that usually made fun of me about my big bottom lip, he said "Barforama" and I had to correct him saying it was the other girl, not me, we just had the same first names. Anyway, so I would never want to go back to junior high again.
So because I do the right thing, I expect others to follow my lead such as not coming back into a line when I leave it and expecting to get back the spot I had, so I expect others to not be able to do that. I don't ask to cut, but have had other people that have had the gall to ask to cut. It's just amazing. I turned them down OF COURSE. I have OFFERED people spots in line before if they had like one item, but I have NEVER have asked to cut. That's just wrong. If everyone could do that, no one would wait their turn expect for the people that are letting them do this.
Anyway, that's enough for now.
