Had a great customer give me 8 lovely cubans(cigars) for getting his system up and operational by 4:45p.m., I had just stepped off a plane at 2:30p.m., because his birthday party started at 5:00p.m.

Was given a full Carver stack of gear because we finished a job under deadline.

More times than I can remember I have received $100-$500 tips. Seems like those tips come just before I go out of town, makes for more fun at the strip clubs.
