The person at Waffle Housedrops my card and starts crying.She’s here alone until 2. It’s 2.Kind of hard to avoid the factthat I am part of the problem.With that in mind, how muchof a tip is a good tip, and whereis the line between a good tipand a messiah complex?Trying to quickly stop crying,she asks me, do you ever justget so tired? If she wants toburn down the Waffle House,I’ll go get some kerosene.There are other sandwiches.I offer her Advil. I don’t knowwhat else to do. She declines.Anyway, she says, shakingher head. She’ll be able to sitonce the restaurant is empty,meaning, of course, when I leave.
