you gotta card people looking teenagers because if you don't the restaurant might get in trouble and get fined. that's bad business for everyone especially after repeated offenses, the liquor license may be revoked and that is bad for all around. that is your job and responsibility, especially when you work at the bar. now if you look like cloris leachman, then maybe not so much checking id.

regarding the tip, there are 80 different ways about this and the answer for me is everyone is right and entitled to their opinions. we all do things differently and different situations calls for different tactics. hannah did what she felt she had to do at the time and that was to speak up--now will she do it hereafter? maybe, maybe not, but her feeling was that she busted her chops and they left bupkis...she spoke up and it worked out well, but she also knew she might have had to deal with the other possible outcome of the party going off on her and getting reprimanded. but hannah took a stand one night and she did what she felt was right. we all have moments like that in our lives.

regarding the girl who posted a comment who is a self-proclaimed country bumpkin, don't sweat none of this stuff, come to nyc and experience great food and drinks! no one here is out to get upset over nothing, i can say it would be a bigger crime to not contribute to the local tourism/food economy than worrying about leaving too little of a tip.

he was somethin' i bought a peeler from him years ago and loved it! it did everything he said it could. then a roommate moved out and took it. bought another one, and another roommate took it. i guess i really should have gotten 5 for $20. he is one of the many reasons i love NY! i could buy a replacement from some online store, but it wouldn't be the same...buying something from a soul less corporation. RIP mr. ades, we will really miss you!
