The best way to convert someone to your religion is to force it down their throats, especially via pamphlets. It's been statistically proven!

honest question, when you go out to a restaurant for a meal...do you leave a tract instead of a monetary tip?
I doubt you are being honest, nonetheless.

Never, ever. While I 100% believe that the tract is more valuable than any financial gain anyone could ever have, they more than likely do not believe that at all. When I leave a tract or a simple message on the receipt we as a family leave a generous tip in hopes that they may read what we left in addition to the tip. Bad tips come from all walks of life. I want our waiter or waitress to remember our tip in a very positive way. And maybe, just maybe because of that tip, the server will read what we left. It has nothing to do with us, it has everything to do with Him.

I am always honest, but glad to hear you don't screw over a waiter/waitress with a tract instead. when I waited tables tracts would get left on the table and they never got read and just crumpled up with the rest of the trash on the table. and I can guarantee 99.9% of wait staff never read them, they are more worried about the shift ending so they can down a bottle of jack and hook up with the hostess.

In your struggles as a pizza hut delivery driver, have you ever been given a tract as a tip? Was it awkward? Did you guys exchange tracts in an effort to convert each other to your specific "brand" of Christianity?

What if it's a *GASP* Methodist-Christian tract?!?

Jeremy Piven leaves signed autographs of his face as a tip.

Another thing, New Orleans area is a very Catholic area of the country. I have never seen anyone leave a religious pamphlet on a table or anything like that. They may write, "May God Bless You" on a receipt or something.

To the Catholics' credit, they're not nearly as annoyingly evangelical as the born again types. If it wasn't for their fanaticism about abortion, they'd be almost Jewish in their politeness.

And those that do not tip are just the worst. Even more so when you leave a tract to say hey I am such and such but refuse to help any of your other needs.

In all seriousness, it's great that you are religious and I have no problem with it, just don't really believe in forcing it upon other people.

If you think what I do is forcing I would think you are in need of a dictionary, no offense.

The real question is: why does Brett hand out comics about Jesus, rather than handing out Jesus himself? http://www.cavanaghco.com/products.html

I, personally, would go with the 1 3/8", gluten free, Christ if I were going to embark on such an enterprise. (we don't want them pussy celiac sufferer's suing Him after they're done eating Him)

I have not tipped before and will not tip again. Don't piss me off.

I figure even with bad service perhaps the waiter/waitress is having a bad day and since I have bad days too I'm just trying to turn it around.
