@ladyevelynshine: Most people tip at the end of a meal, to say thank you. The wealthy learned something else long ago, and it has almost nothing to do with money. Loyalty is never built in the moment you need it. It is built long before, while the sun is still shining. You take care of people early, quietly, and a room begins to move for you. If no one ever taught you this, that is not a failing of yours. These things are simply passed down inside certain families, and rarely said out loud. This is one small move of many. Together they are the difference between being just another face in the room, and being the one it quietly revolves around. Comment MAYFAIR and I will send you The Mayfair Method, the quiet rules that decide who a room takes care of, and who it overlooks.
