Hi All,

Here's an article that might interest your pupils, many of whom might find 
themselves working as waiters/waitresses. Good reading comprehension topic 
that should motivate them to read and find out their rights beforehand.

There's also an explanation of the origin of the word "tips".

The title is good in that it makes use of more than one meaning of the word. 
I recently gave an "unseen" to one of my classes, "What's novel about 
novels?" and many of the kids lazily or over-confidently, didn't look up the 
word and check out the different meanings and as a result, didn't answer the 
last question correctly. (They were asked to answer to answer the question 
posed in the title.)
