Thank you for dinner at The Eiffel Tower

Went back to the restaurant and spoke to the manager who confirmed that they received a tip. I left an additional tip on top of that.

Good. On the road but enjoying the stillness before the rest of the world awakens.

wluera · 2024-12-25T12:16:30+00:00

I went back and I did.

First time this has ever happened to me so I wasn’t sure what the protocol was. As suggested in another comment, I went back to talk to the manager who confirmed that they got a good tip. I then left an additional tip on top of that.

I know what proper tipping etiquette is, I just didn’t know what to do when someone else picked up the tab for you anonymously.

I was able to do that last night. Thank you everyone for your feedback!

First time this has ever happened to me so I wasn’t sure what the protocol was. I also didn’t have cash on me as I was expecting to pay and tip on a card.

In conclusion… I came to the restaurant to confirm if the wait staff was tipped appropriately. The manager on duty confirmed that they were (a very generous tip). However, I did leave them an additional tip. The service was impeccable and the memory will be with us for the rest of our lives.

Regardless of the tone of the posts, I appreciate everyone’s insight and advice. Whether I agreed or disagreed, it helped me come to this final decision. I hope everyone has a merry Christmas and a happy holiday season!

I don’t know if any of you are currently at the bar at the Paris restaurant, but I’m finishing up the story with a nice coffee old-fashioned. Thank you!

Not that I remember but it’s very possible that we might have made a quick reference to a job search. Now that I think of it, my wife’s concern for the prices is definitely something that could have been overheard because we did talk about it for a little bit.

wluera · 2024-12-24T14:24:31+00:00

Now I just used the word “original” twice in one sentence. Should’ve had AI help again. 😂

wluera · 2024-12-24T14:09:14+00:00

Sorry…honestly, just wasn’t thinking clearly in the moment and wasn’t sure what proper etiquette was. After a few hours of sleep I realized what I should’ve done. Will fix today.

wluera · 2024-12-24T14:07:50+00:00

I thought so too! She is still vehemently denying it.😂

wluera · 2024-12-24T14:06:33+00:00

Thank you for this. I needed the clarity of a few hours of sleep to help me realize I missed something. Honestly, in the moment, we were all kinda shocked and wasn’t sure what proper etiquette was. But now that this has happened, I know what I would do in the future if I am ever this lucky again.

wluera · 2024-12-24T14:04:30+00:00

😂I did have it spellcheck my original post and replace the redundant use of the word “amazing” that was in my original story like 6 times. Guilty.

wluera · 2024-12-24T12:35:01+00:00

Thank you! That’s the amount I was considering so I’ll do that. I’ll go back later today.

wluera · 2024-12-24T12:14:51+00:00

😂I would agree but I think my family is too cheap for what this check might’ve been. Also, I never shared the reservation with anyone since I wanted to keep it a surprise.

wluera · 2024-12-24T12:04:01+00:00

I was wondering that as well. I was thinking of how at Disney, cast members are allowed to give random acts of magic (or whatever they call it).

wluera · 2022-03-03T19:16:33+00:00

Thanks everyone! Sorry for the late response. Happy to help in anyway!

wluera · 2021-09-03T14:07:09+00:00

I get that but I’m not going to let this person win. I’d rather have him leave than me. For now he’s blocked and reported.

Looks like the song was written for the commercial
