And now you’re on it, speeding your way across Germany with a maniac (aka your best friend) behind the wheel. “This is fun!” your friend exclaims as he zooms by yet another car. “I love the Autobahn!” Your fists are clenched so tightly your nails are digging into your palms. “Shouldn’t you go a little slower?” you ask. “I want to get there quickly, but not dead!” Your friend once again presses the gas, and you wonder just how fast this car can go. Even a roller coaster isn’t this scary! “But in the USA I can’t drive really fast!” your friend says. “And will you look at that idiot,” he gripes. “Why is he going so slow, and not even driving straight? He’s a danger to the other drivers. I could kill him!”

When you go to a restaurant in a foreign city, are you sure you are tipping the right amount? The size of the appropriate tip can be a really tricky question, especially since not all locals will agree on it. For example, in Germany there are some people that say that you shouldn’t tip at all if a restaurant bill already lists a service charge, or a line to the effect that service is included in the meal prices. Others however will say that tipping is still expected and not tipping is rude. So, which is it? And if you tip, how much is appropriate? Today Sarah will have a look at this subject and relate another personal experience. As usual, this GermanPod101 audioblog is completely in German, except for the vocabulary given at the end.
