Today, I added some of my own money to the tip jar in the Subway I work at to make myself look less pathetic. FML

Your reasoning behind doing it is pretty sad. But putting a dollar or two in before you start your shift usually helps people tip a little bit more on a slow night (which is why I did it when working at certain establishments).

What's even more pathetic is that you expect to be tipped for working at a fast-food chain; it's not like making sandwiches is that complex a thing to do.

Why was this put on the frontpage, adding money to the tip jar is something everyone does.

That's not FML silly. It's a common tactic everywhere to encourage people to tip on the basis that someone else did it. Have you ever seen those dudes play guitar / bongos / whatever on the street? They put some money in the hat themselves for the exact same reason. So cheer up.

Yeah.. you work at Subway - don't expect tips. Servers and bartenders most places actually have a lower minimum wage than the standard, so they really need tips to make a living at all. You on the other hand work at Subway, so FYL unless you're in school.

I was just about to say something similar. My friends and I go to the Subway here a few times a month and I can't remember ever seeing a tip jar... not that I would tip, because I'm a poor student myself and I agree with #18 en #21.
