Hello Glenn, NLP case study: $1 Tipping technique I was darn hungry today - so the little lady and I decided to dine at one of those chain steakhouses with the country & western decor. ""Get along little doggies!!!"" Anyway our waiter, Chet, comes over and asks us what we would like to drink. I order the iced tea and the little lady orders water with lemon. Let the fun begin!! Chet brings out the drinks and sets them in front of us. I smile and promptly hand him a $1 bill. Bam! He looks at me like I am a nut-job or something! HA HA HA! I smile back at him. He pauses and finally replies ""Th-thanks!"" I can barely contain my laughter! The little lady is starting to laugh as well! We manage to keep our composure and he moves on. This is a BLAST! A few moments later he brings us some bread and I sense his mood is elevated. (The bread sucked by the way.) I give him another $1 bill. WHAM! I could have knocked him over with a feather. Now he gives me another weird look and then a broad smile. I smile back and he says ""Thank you, Sir."" This scenario plays out throughout the meal. This NLP stuff works! How do I know? I asked this guy a simple question about how long he has worked at the restaurant and he would not shut up. I soon learned he is to wed soon, he owns 4 dogs, a cat, he just moved from Florida, etc., etc, etc. (This is rapport correct?) I think I had his whole life story for the last 5 years. This guy seemed very shy as well - I noticed that he did not initiate a conversation with any other patrons in the restaurant except for what they wanted to order. But he went out of his way to talk to me. Furthermore, rarely does anyone call me ""sir"", especially by someone about 10 years younger than me. (I''m 32). Our service was great. I even tipped the lady who brought out the food for our waiter. ""Well, thank you so much!"" she exclaimed after a moment of stunned silence. I think I made her day. Don''t tell my fiance this, but she was quite a ""hottie"". What fun!!! I think I spent 8-9 dollars in tips overall. It was worth every penny. Thanks, Garrett
