At the barbecue after the last Grays game one of the guys kept getting interrupted on his cell phone by a Curb Your Enthusiasm scale blow up which involved his ex-girlfriend, his boss's daughter, a haircut, and a too-small tip. After a while I realized the trio's highly charged response to this situation was pretty much the same as my reaction to a too-small stipend in a fellowship for "highly qualified educators."
It's just like a rich dude (Hewlett, not ISKME) stiffing you on a tip. And a bad tip is even more insulting if your base pay is actually pretty good.
