I wonder if Marhabtain even has a car? If the rest of us are so lazy and he's definately not, I assume then that he uses his legs to walk everywhere he needs to go in Doha.. and Im confident, based on his comments, he's never used a drive-thru (or probably even had fast food) :).
Cars are lazy and a luxury that we're used to now. When we park at a mall, naturally everyone tries to find the closest parking stall to the entrance... why? laziness and convenience. Does anyone go to Fast Food places? 9 out of 10 times... its simply out of convenience / laziness because we dont want to cook. And heaven forbid we actually would use a drive thru (which a few self righteous ones on this site Im sure would never admit to doing... right?.
Amoud is right....the tipping is a big part of it. We tip the guys at the gas pump, at the shop who come to our cars, the car washers at the mall, etc. Why? because not only have they made it convenient for our lazy butts by doing something for us, but these guys make virtually nothing... Im perfectly happy to give the guys 5-10 Riyal.
