In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: In some circles, it's common practice to leave a large tip on the first round. Depending on the bar, leave between 50-100% to make a good first impression.  Some bartenders might think you want special treatment for leaving such a large tip. Don't act like the bartender owes you anything, and don't make a big deal about leaving a good tip.  Even if you don't tip large on the first round, you should at least leave something. Don't stiff your bartender, especially on the first round. If you order a beer or a glass of wine, you can usually get away with tipping between $1-2. If you order a cocktail, tip between $2-3. The longer your bartender spends making your drink, the more you should tip them. If you're paying in cash, make sure to leave a tip for every drink. A good rule to follow is about $1 a drink. In nicer bars, leave $2 per drink. If you're paying with a card, calculate 20% of your tab at the end of the night. For more expensive cocktails, it's a better idea to go with 20% of the tab rather than tipping by the drink. If you have trouble calculating the appropriate tip amount, just divide your total costs by 5. If your bartender was particularly quick to serve you, or made each drink perfectly, reward his good service. It's the bartender's job to make sure you have a good time. Not only is he responsible for making your drinks, but he's also responsible for making you feel welcome in the bar. If you appreciated the extra lengths your bartender went to improve your evening, leave a big tip. Don't try to convince your bartender to give you a free drink in exchange for a tip. You're asking the bartender to steal, which could get her fired.  Don't ask your bartender to make you a strong drink unless you are willing to pay for it. If you want a stronger drink, order a double.  If you do end up getting a strong drink, remember to reward your bartender with a nice tip.
Summary: Tip big on the first round. Tip according to the drink. Leave a tip for every drink. Tip extra for exceptional service. Don't bargain with your bartender.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: . When you paint your blinds, they need to be on a flat surface so you don't drip paint everywhere, which means you need to take them down. Alternatively, you may want to hang them up outside to paint to reduce the mess. Either way, you need to take them down from their indoor location. Usually, individual slats will unhook from the top. Some vertical blinds have a fabric insert, while others are just fabric on one side and vinyl on the other. If yours have the insert, pull it out before you start painting. You may need to slip a credit card between the slat and the fabric to get it going. If your blinds have been hanging up for any length of time, they likely have dirt and grime on them. Wash them with soapy, warm water. Dish soap works well for this purpose.  It can be easier to take them outside to scrub. Some blinds are machine washable. Check the tag to make sure yours are. Coil them together in a pillowcase, and put them in the washing machine with a few towels. Use the gentle cycle, warm water, and detergent. Before painting, your blinds will need plenty of time to dry. If they're fabric, you may want to let them dry overnight. Lay them out flat, and turn them over after a few hours so both sides can dry. For vinyl blinds, you can wipe them down to speed up the process. The blinds should be completely dry before you start painting.
Summary:
Take your blinds down Remove the fabric insert from fabric blinds. Wash your blinds thoroughly. Let the blinds dry.
