Yes, that's what I learned yesterday. Seems everybody knew the system but me. I suppose if she hadn't brought it back without me explicitly telling her not to she could be accused of theft or at least been hassled. My dining companion couldn't understand why I always over tip, unless they earned a lesser amount. Then one day a guy at her business gave her a $35 tip for a repair on a long leather duster that was particularly difficult. Her customers never tip. She said that $35 wasn't going to change her budget but made her warm and fuzzy for two days. That's exactly the point.
