What's your stance? For me, if someone has to beg for money at their job in order to make a living, I'll tip $1.
I'm here to help.
15% for me. 20 if the service was awesome.

If you're not a f**king a**hole you should be normal and at least throw a couple bucks to the waiters. In some states they don't even make minimum wage, and they get direct money from tips.
If the person seems like they are one of those "I HATE MY JOB. WHY DON'T PEOPLE TIP ME!?" waiters, I'll leave 10%.
Adequate service is 15%.
If the person really put an effort in, then I tip 20%.
I tip based on performance.
5 cents: GTFO and pick a new job. Nao.
5% you suck
10% You did ok
15% you did well
20% You're awesome.
20% every time, unless the service is bad. Servers in my state make half of minimum wage and usually they have to pay off the busboys and hostesses, too. It's a f**king joke.
I guess I tip well out of pity, then.
Brit here
We don't tip unless we get great service.
15 percent every time. (more if the meal was cheapo)
I'm here to eat with my date, not judge you.
I do it on this:
If the waiter/bitchtress accutally is friendly to me and we have a good conversation not just "hows everything" I'll give them a good tip
If its them beening all nice and just bringing me my food I dont. I mean why should I pay you extra for doing your f**king job
Also if they should get tipped cashiers should be tipped. I have to put up with way worse sh*t than you f**ks.

$1 is all they get from me. I think its good, considering it's an unskilled job where they shuffle their feet 10 steps to get my food.
Also, no, I don't want to tip the taxi driver, hair stylist, poker dealer, stripper, vevlet guy -- HOLY F**K, everyone wants a tip nowadays.
I only tip if the person is really, really old or if it's a fat waitress with 3 kids at home.
If it's a hot hipster chick I think she'll do fine without the tip.
Why is anyone even replying to this thread? Everyone knows where it's going to go and it makes everyone who takes part in it look absolutely retarded.
This post has never been done before. I eagerly await all the brand new, cutting edge insights that will arise from it.
I never tip.
Fun fact- if waiters dont make enough in tips their boss has to make up the difference to minimum wage. Waiters love to keep this secret from you and hold their wage above your head

Waiters get taxed on their tips. What they make in tips gets cut from their paycheck. That is truth.
If a waiter doesn't make enough in a week to make it to minimum wage, they are told "Too bad, so sad" which is why I got out of it.
Don't know why I post in this thread every time it's made.
I tip at maximum 10%. I'm too much of a pansy to not tip. Time to start manning up, though, I think.
My dad tipz $0 100% of the time.

>implying waiters report their tips on taxes
NI**ERS, WAITERS DO MAKE MINIMUM WAGE; IT'S JUST DONE DIFFERENTLY.
Also, ni**ers who don't tip: If you don't think they did an actual good job, that's fine, but if they were attentative and tried their best to make you feel welcomed, throw them a few extra bucks.
Also ni**ers who are waiters: Don't defile food, or ignore a customer because they don't tip. You get paid already, and your work ethic should be good enough to treat all equally.
30% generally.
Sometimes more if I pay in cash and don't have enough ones. I can get close to 50% if my check is under $10.
10%
Everytime
Its just how I was raised, f**k all haters
>implying waiters report their tips on taxes
My location had to. When you declare your tips at the end of the night, the manager on duty lorded over you, counted out your tips, and punched it himself.
Got into trouble because, for a while apparently, servers weren't declaring -anything- and then the suits started asking questions...
I used to serve at a place that brought in a lot of older people who either never tipped or thought whatever change they had in their pocket was generous.
Whenever I had to serve a table I knew wouldn't tip, I would be obnoxiously perky and nice, while being condescending at the same time. Same with customers who never smiled, and when asked why I was so happy, I'd tell them I was making up for their own foul moods.
Felt good, man.

Your dad is a true Jew; man the f**k up and stop tipping :D
Waiters should stop hating the customers for not tipping -- how about getting a better job? Stop the self entitlement attitude.
"Waaah if you don't want to tip then don't eat out waaaaaah"
Where is the logic in that? If it wasn't for the customer there would be no restaurant -- therefore no job for your sorry ass.
Be grateful you got a job you f**king servant.
I don't really eat in restaurants. But for delivery guys, between 10-20%.
In the short term, tipping might seem like an annoying custom to appease over-entitled service personnel.
But if you expect to be a long-term patron, it is in your best interests to tip well.

So you were trolling... in a nice way...
Nice man.
I tip some % between 10 and 20. Generally what rounds up to a nice even number.
I like nice even numbers.

Must be a c**t bot to be so unemotional stable.
Don't hate the customer, hate your job.
I like to "restaurant hop" to avoid tipping.
If I go back to the same restaurant, it's next month, at a different time, where I don't get the same waitress.
The only job that really deserves a tip is the pizza delivery guy, since he uses the tip for gas money.
So f**k the Bell boy, you're not going to get a tip for carrying my luggage you fa**ot.
(I don't use them anyways, I can carry my own luggage)
I think I'm a nice guy.
One time this Chinese bitch, in a Chinese restaurant, demands me to tip her "At least $1.50"
I could have verbally tear her a new a**hole.
I should, but I didn't. Because I'm nice

"Tipping is for the birds man"
You should never tip at buffets.
When you go in there, there is usually waiter asking if you want anything to drink, they take your plates away etc.
I ain't tipping you c**t face.
To ease the guilt I usually don't ask them for water or anything and just leave me alone ;__;
$1 is all they get from me. I think its good, considering it's an unskilled job where they shuffle their feet 10 steps to get my food.

Yes, this pisses me off too. If a person makes at least minimum wage, then they get no tip from me. The guy making my food at McDonalds has a harder job than a bartender, but the McDonalds guy gets no tips while the bartender EXPECTS a tip when most of the time all he has to do is pour beer into a mug. Now every motherf**ker and his dog wants a tip and will actually get mad if they don't get tipped. They take their anger out on the customer by offering sh*ttier service instead of hating the corrupt system that pays them next to nothing and shafts the customer just as much as the near-slaves that it employs.
I tip 25%.
Yep.

F**king chinks always want a tip for doing anything. It's like they think that white people have money overflowing out of their a**holes that they can throw down for every Wong Chong that refills their drink.

I have a new rule.
If the bartender wants a tip she has to suck my dick. Guy bartender -- no need to apply.
Serious, you open my beer and expects a tip? F**k you.
I feel no obligation to tip by default, but I'll do so if the service is good and more if it was great.
Most waiters aren't lazy a**holes, though, so I tip often
Apparently Vegas strippers expect you to tip them when they're giving a lap dance.
Haha ... holy f**k. Not sure if serious.
I'm sure Dad must be proud of them.
Also, when I go to the strip club, I never ever get a lap dance. F**k them, they ain't hustling me.
IF WE HAVE TO TIP SOME PEOPLE FOR HAVING CRAPPY JOBS
WE SHOULD HAVE TO TIP ALL PEOPLE WHO HAVE CRAPPY JOBS

Depends on how well they are. The minimum I'll pay is two dollars. The most I've tipped was 10 dollars and that was for a taxi driver. There was a language barrier and I didn't have the address with me. He was from Bangladesh.

We tip food servers so they don't spit in the food next time we go there. Same thing with food delivery people. It's not Pinko-Commie, it's common sense.
Why do you think European tourists don't tip in American restaurants? They know tipping isn't included, but they also know that they're only going to be at that place once.
Refute that.
I don't tip but that's cause I'm poor, not so I can go on web and act like an internet tough guy about it.

not always the case.
the restaurant where I work currently, I get paid $2.50 hour. even if I only pulled in like 10 bucks for 5 hours (lunch shift) I don't get compensated.I live right next to a large college though so usually most of the patrons have college aged kids or kids that worked waiting so they tip fairly well. Still if it's a dead day it sucks balls.
I don't normally rage over bad tippers, more than likely there will be 3-4 more other regulars who will tip me well.
I only get pissed when people come in 15-20 mins before close and decide to blab for 45 mins after finishing their meals while the cooks leave to go home.
If we have to give people extra money to simply do their jobs and not take offense, then they simply aren't worth doing any business with.
you are getting served and being waited on, and if the server is nice, you get some social interaction albeit it's somewhat forced.
it's just common courtesy, some people aren't fortunate enough to have better jobs available to them so to say "get a real/better job" is a dick move.
don't go out to eat.
I'm not a poor fa**ot. I usually tip 20% unless the check is under 20 bucks, in which case its more like 30%.

So I have to bribe them $1 or $2 so the business establishment workers don't spit on my food?
WHAT THE F**K AM I READING.
That makes them sub human.
I read on the news once, a guy sent back his steak because it wasn't done the way he liked it, the chef put his pubes and cum on the steak, he got caught and sentence to 3 years in jail. LOL.
also to further note
Waiters can tell if you are poorf** and can't really afford to put in a big tip. We aren't going to spit in your food just because you can't afford it. (well the non-spiteful ones atleast)
sometimes if you are just nice and genuinely ask our day/shift is going that's just fine and dandy by itself.
I have one lady that comes in and tips only 3 dollars no matter what, but I don't give a f**k because she's a sweetheart and when it's not busy I'll take time to talk to her because she just pleasant to wait on.
I only tip if the person is really, really old or if it's a fat waitress with 3 kids at home.

This post has made the most sense.
I'd tip based on who they are. Hipster chicks/cool dudes are probably just saving up to buy a car because it's the one thing mommy and daddy won't pay for, but some people really need the money.

How about hating the establishment that treats you like a slave instead of being a dickface and shifting the blame to the customer?

where in my post did I shift blame on the customer fa**ot?
I've never let customers affect my performance, unless I'm swamped and I physically cannot take everyone's orders/refills/extra bread rolls at once.
I'm simply stating that if you really can't afford 10% or 20% I'm not going to put my pubes in your spaghetti and meatballs, I just can't vouch for EVERY waiter in the industry.

>implying that you didn't imply that you would spit or put pubes in food
I tip a small amount, maybe 10% if that. I'm really cheap.
I used to be a waitress, so I know how hard you have to work and how every dollar matters but I just hate the way the restaurant industry is run in America. I hate the ass-kissing servers do and I hate that I'm expected to hand people money for smiling and not f**king up my order.
I ALWAYS tip very well if I get my hair cut/nails done/massaged, etc though. I think if you touch any part of a conscious and aware person's body willingly even though some people (not me) are nasty freaks, you deserve a little extra.
I do it on this:
If the waiter/bitchtress accutally is friendly to me and we have a good conversation not just "hows everything" I'll give them a good tip
If its them beening all nice and just bringing me my food I dont. I mean why should I pay you extra for doing your f**king job
Also if they should get tipped cashiers should be tipped. I have to put up with way worse sh*t than you f**ks.
This is just an ignorant post altogether.
Where I live, waiters make 2.55 an hour. That's a f**king joke. Tips are how they make a living.
I mean, of course if they're a sh*tty server, tip them less.
So really, you're not paying them "extra" to do their job. You're paying them to do their job, which is to wait on you.
Derp

All of these threads come down to this:
American waiters are too spineless and/or stupid to demand a lawful wage.
have to say I really love it when american complain about socialism, health care and stuff and demanding free choice, but at the same time the tip for american waiters is already included in the final bill. free choice my ass.

>implying that you didn't imply that you would spit or put pubes in food
I'll admit the thought has crossed my mind but I have yet to truly run into someone that was a complete and utter ass to me that I felt the need to put my own bodily fluids and risk fines/jailtime to actually do it.
but then again I'm a nice guy, can't say the same for other waiters. That was kinda the point I was putting across, you shouldn't be afraid of contaminated food just because you can't afford to tip well.
man you just need your information spoonfed to you don't you?
All of these threads come down to this:

Seriously man, wtf?

uhhh, reading comprehension ni**er do you have it?
I said I ENJOY waiting on her because she GENUINELY talks to me and is a sweet lady, I could care less if she tips 50 cents. She's easy to serve and asks me how my day is and what I've been doing since I last saw her.
she's like a surrogate grandma.
you really are an aspie fa**ot.
The way I see it, the Jew restaurant wins at the end of the day -- the way they design the system.
Jew biz owner underpays servant, and puts the wages on the customer (WTF?). Jew owner expects the servant and customer to duke it out.
Can't we have some restaurant reform, where the customer gets their own food from the kitchen?
Would you go there? I would.

I just don't go out to eat and avoid the issue. Besides at small little places where you just get your food at the counter and aren't waited on.
The whole restaurant experience just isn't worth it, unless I'm with a bunch of people, in which case I'll throw in a few dollars just to not get into a pissfest over tipping.

I'm surprised that there's never been a waiter's union in the United States.
there are, they are based in whatever state you work in if available.
you guys act like this has never been addressed before, because SURELY tipping must be some new age crap that never existed before right?

Ive worked as a waiter and I know it is HELL to make money, and it's all bs. I hate it when people didn't tip, because it meant that I don't get to eat that night.

In that case, their unions have done a really sh*tty job. The restaurant establishment still treats their workers like sh*t and customers still get the shaft by being expected to pay the difference of the sub-par wages of waiters. Judging from the attitude of most waiters, it's gotten to the point that the customer isn't paying for the service, but is instead effectively bribing the waiter to not defile his meal.
If you can't afford to tip 15% then you can't afford to eat out.
Typical servant logic. "If you can't tip, you can't eat out" is akin to "Don't get a lapdance if you can't tip the stripper"
How about a big f**k you?
And how's that working out for the waiters?
>I hate it when people didn't tip, because it meant that I don't get to eat that night. Terrible job, but I also had terrible work environment.
I lol'd.
why don't you do some research if you know so much about the service industry?
I have no huge qualms about my waiting job, I'm not the afformentioned poster talking about no tips=no food, my workplace offers me free food (eat with the owner and the cooks) if I want. So I've had no use of a union.
I'd like a better job but for the time being I need to work this one until I land a better paying one that isn't reliant on how many people come in to eat. I have things like rent and groceries so I can't just "LOL I QUIT" until I for sure have a new job lined up.

<$5 bill=$1-2 tip >5<10=$5 tip >10<35=$10-15 tip >35<50=20-40 tip >50<100=50 tip >100=>$50 tip >200=$100 etc, you get the point, im a generous tipper. Ive worked as a waiter and I know it is HELL to make money, and it's all bs. I hate it when people didn't tip, because it meant that I don't get to eat that night. Terrible job, but I also had terrible work environment. If I'm with friends, and we split it, we all put in whatever we think is appropriate and give it all to the guy.
>>Terrible job, but I also had terrible work environment.
Oh you. Subtle troll full of mastery.
Waiter/waitress, 10-15% unless you had an attitude problem, in which case you get precisely dick.
Pizza driver, couple bucks unless there's a delivery charge.
Taxi driver, hair stylist, massage, sandwich maker, coffee maker, anyone else with a tip jar--f**k you.
The bit I don't get is Americans are supposed to hate Socialism. It's all about individualism and making your own way, so why the f**k did they take a nice system where you give someone a little extra when they've given you a extra special service and make it mandatory? That's not tipping, it's paying someones wages, and it's not my f**king place to do that. Just put your f**king prices up and pay your staff a decent wage.
Now that I think of it, I'm only going to tip burnt out, career waitress; you know those single moms that have 3 kids and is in her 30s, probably high school drop out because she's a teen preggo.
If you're a hot college chick, you can go without the tip. Why? Because you're in f**king college and dropping 10k a year in tuition money.
I have the feeling that more Americans are becoming aware of how ridiculous tipping culture is. This year alone there've been more and more tipping threads on Fark, Consumerist, other news sites.
I never imagined that such a ridiculous game could be played before I moved to the United States.
You can tell the reflection of a culture by it's people; sh*t people, sh*t culture.
And this means you Americ**ts who "I'll spit in your food if you don't tip" to the "I'll steal your change in your car if you don't tip the valet drivers"
Oh yeah, taxi drivers don't deserve tip. F**k them.

ok, will do. Instead of charging you for 8 dollars for that burger and fries that only costed me the owner $4 to make, I'll charge you $14 dollars plus the drink and taxes.
HOPE TO SEE YOU EAT HERE AGAIN!
must be nice thinking that everyone will agree to steep price raising to avoid putting in an extra 2-3 dollars.

Perhaps people will waken up and realize how sh*tty it is, and how they're getting f**ked over.
Never understood why waiters give some bull sh*t about "If they pay us minimum wage, the price of of the menu will go up".
Never made sense -- because it's bullsh*t!
Maybe, just maybe, if Americans didn't eat out so much they wouldn't be in so much debt.
Just a thought.
>>Americans didn't eat out so much they wouldn't be in so much debt.

If the whole restaurant industry shuts down, it's not the customers that suffer, it's the business owners.
Then people will cook their own healthy meals at home and save themselves a bunch of money.
IB4 "But the industry creates job!"
F**k that, nothing of value is lost. People who are career waiters will start cleaning toilets, tend the toll booth and work at sex phone lines.

We always go over to Europe and say "HOLY SH*T $10 FOR A BURGER? WHAT THE F**K" well now you know why; people have to be paid at least minimum wage.
If I was a dictator, I would mandate all waitress and bartenders to suck the patron's dick before receiving their tip.
No exceptions.
Even if it a fat old grandpa with a strong case of dick cheese.

you can pay $10 for a burger in "murica" too and still tip.
but then again I don't expect a lesser 3rd world eurotrash as yourself to understand that.
excuse me while I play golf on the moon.

all the threads I ever see you make is you raging over OMG TIPPING WAITERS!!!
deal with it nerd
You know everyone is expecting a tip when the vegas hooker expects you to tip her.
Next thing you know, expecting your doctor, lawyer or teacher is expected.
Just when will this tipping bullsh*t stop?
I'm pretty sure 20 years ago nobody tipped the hair stylist or taxi driver, or bell boy.

Would be nice if the restaurant owners shut the f**k up, and pay the waiter decent wage.

they did actually.
did you not watch old black and white films?, it's a common shtick, bell boy with his hand out expecting a tip and then charlie chaplin gives him the ol coin on a string trick.
what fantasy reality do you live in where tipping is ruining your country?
I think you are just a bitter poorf**.

Deal with it, the world ain't gonna change. This game has been around for a long time.
5 bucks per 2 people. Kids count as half a person.

Doesn't mean I have to pay it.
One time, at the buffet the bill was $30. I paid, then left a $2 tip for the waiter to see. He didn't pick it up, but went to the front reception because of whatever.
I immediately pocket the $2 tip from the tray and laughed my way out of the door.

I paid for my sh*t, why would I also pay someone extra, who is already getting paid, for doing their job? I wouldn't give my boss any of my money, for being a good boss, nor am I about to pay the guy who brings me my post in the morning.
Another thing: tipping the tattoo artist.
REALLY? STOP F**KING KIDDING ME.
Holy sh*t.
Strippers, taxi drivers, tattoo artist, guy making my sandwich ... next thing you know, I should tip the cleaners at the hotel that cleaned my room.
Oh wait, some people already do.

I left all my left over spanish coins in the hotel room for the cleaner to take, I wouldn't consider it a tip, but I was getting on a plane within half an hour and wouldn't have found a use for them so I let her have them.
True story: when I stayed at a large chain hotel, the maid left her cart outside in the mall.
I raided that sh*t and stole well over 30 items, including soaps, face soap, shampoo and conditioners.
It has been a year and I still haven't used up all the soap.

Ideally service jobs should be for young people still in high school, or going to college who have no previous working experience.
And F**K having amateurs work my phone sex lines! amirite?

High tier waiters make around $100 to $200 a busy night in those high end restaurants but generally waiters at Applebee on a Wednesday make sh*t.

Even at the casual restaurant I work at you go home with at least a bill. If you put in your ~40 hours, making $1000 is no problem.
Also, waiting is harder than most people imagine.
People can tip nothing if they want, it doesn't affect me.
No one spits in your food.
Retail blows.

Most people that have not served usually never understand. I've been in this kind of conversation many times before. Unlike most "college student" jobs, serving demands the ability to multitask. Especially if you're god tier and handle up to 10 tables at once. Seems like most people think that their server is only serving them and not 20+ other people at the same time.

If I am impressed by the service I will leave money above my bill.
ITT: Ni**ers?
Where I live, the only f**ker's who seriously don't tip are black people. Almost always. They also act like it's completely normal and ask for exact change. I'm talking chinese/pizza delivery though. Thank god I work in the county though, have no idea how people work in the city with all the black people when making $4.25/hr (my wage) ..

Idk why Im bothering with a troll but here goes...
The job is not all that fun. You walk around MILES a day. People come to you when they are at their worst: tired, hungry, cranky, lonely, drunk, sad, or ecstatic.
Some want to be left alone, some want all the attention they dont get from husbands/wifus/gfs/bf/ boss/ underlings, etc
Some just wanna showboat and be asshats because they can. I suspect OP falls into the latter category.
A good waitron can tailor its approach to people based on a read, but that takes a skill. Time to learn it too.
All day you are taming wankers, entertaining and charming people, tracking down of who is in what stage of their meal; whats going on timing wise with the kitchen, getting sh*t, getting rid of sh*t for them; being treated like a second class human, or being ignored altogether (both suck).
And then there is the variable that you dont know how much someone is gonna pay for your work. Imagine you are a plumber or a computer geek. One customer comes in and descides that 3 hours of your work are worth $20. Next guy, $5. Next can be anything. Its aweful on self esteem not having any agency or control over your life, however god tier you are at waiting tables.
And even if you make it to the high end stuff, you are still a bitch. Handsomely paid maybe, but still a bitch. And the drillings and asshats even worse.
tl;dr: waiting tables takes more skill than you think.
Also, F**K YOU OP.

Only hard thing about waiting tables is on yourself esteem and self worth.
You're not computing matrix calculations, drafting stuff on auto cad, do doing military drills.
You're f**king WALKING, pouring people drinks, giving changes, taking down orders and carrying trays.
Stop being a whinny c**t.
This is the world's smallest violin, playing just for the waitresses.

>i have never waited tables, nor have i ever practiced any of the things i just listed, much less taken part in both jobs so that i'd be able to fully understand what i was talking about, but i'm GOING TO JUDGE PEOPLE NEVER THE LESS
Man, I don't tip either, but at least I admit it's because I'm a cheap a**hole instead of talking out of my ass about something I know nothing about.

I get paid $5.15 an hour as a farm hand. I can't even afford the internet. I surf web from a public library.
I'm pretty sure my work is harder than what a waitress does.
I've never been tipped in my damn life. They expect me to pay an extra 20% because they brought some f**king plates to my table?
They can go to hell.
I never tip.
I've benn known to tip 60 dollars on a $41 meal. However I had an abundance of cash at the time, however the general trend pervades all my tipping actions. I figure I'll be dead soon enough, why not spread the love?

I'll tip if service is good. Because I tip well they remember me and will do sh*t for me next time.
Plus I like my food without spit.

No I haven't and that's why I put out this response. It doesn't seem to difficult to find a web host and I'm more concerned with if I should be looking into programming and how the whole thing works.

Exactly. I could say that all a programmer does all day is sit at a computer and type away, so it's obviously a simple task that doesn't require more than minimum wage, but I've never been a computer programmer before, so I'm not going to sit here and make assumptions about the difficulty of that job.

Yeah but if you had an ounce of intelligence you would know programmers code complex code and usually require a CS degree.
While, a waitress, on the other hand ....
CARRIES AROUND TRAY, TAKE ORDERS, AND EXCHANGES MONEY.
I don't care how much of a f**king butt hurt servant you are, your job isn't hard, both physically or mentally.

Yeah except a computer programmer requires some actual training where as taking plates to a table requires NONE.

You don't need programming, you would need to know about market search, keyword research, writing sells copy and stuff like that.
A good place to start is wickedfire.com go to the "Newbie section" and read the guide. Good luck.
Also, picture is a screen shot of my affiliate payment from fulltilt poker.
$1700 in passive income baby!
Every month I get around 6 different checks from various companies.
Feels good man, but you can do this too if you stick with it.
Lol.
Just how low is America's minimum wage?
In Australia it's easily high enough to make a fine living out of it.
