why is it so hard to grasp the fact that the menu shows the prices of what you are paying for.
the waiter is the person paid to be there, take your order and bring it to you.
tipping is not an obligation of the customer.
if i MUST tip the waiter just for being there or just for doing their job... why don't i also have the option of going to get my food myself? or placing the order myself? or grabbing a fucking menu and some water the second i walk in the goddamned door?
what the fuck is wrong with you people?????
TIPS are REWARDS for GOOD service.
tips aren't given to reward someone for just happening to be there and doing their job poorly.
fucking communists in this place.
Realize I'm speaking from an "In America" perspective here... I realize other countries have other customs.
In America, it's customary to tip your waiter just as it's customary to give the cabbie an extra buck or 5... just like it's customary to give the skycap a buck a bag at the airport.
Like I've said, tipping's a matter of class - some got it, others don't.
I wouldn't necessarily expect those without to understand... especially if they're content in being ignorant, or take pride in being an asshole.
In the case of restaurants, it's so customary that it's actually designed into the way they conduct business. As I said in the post you quoted, if you don't tip at least 8%,it's possible you're putting the person serving you in the position of having to pay out of their own pocket for the honor of serving you. That's simple fact.
You do have an option to serve yourself or place an order yourself or whatever... stick to a counter-service restaurant if you must eat out (fast food, or what-have-you) or stay home and handle it yourself.Last edited by D; 11-14-2007, 12:10 PM.-D.

saying someone doesn't have class for not tipping a rude or horrible waitress that made the experience terrible is just an admission to being a weak minded pussy who finds it easier to go with the flow rather than take a stand for what you believe in.
there is no sign hanging over the door of ANY restaurant ANYWHERE that says "all waitresses are entitled to tips and basically, its just a matter of class"
as has been said many times, tips are for people to offer GOOD service. thats what tips are. its about rewarding efforts that go above and beyond.
class? class has nothing to do with money. you seem to think you can buy class... sorry.... you can't. you cant throw a waitress a $5.00 bill and be "classy"
nice try.
its because of people like you that every asshole under the sun has a tip jar out or thinks they should be tipped as a matter of course.
its rediculous and pathetic.
i was listening to a talk radio show on the rock station the other day in seattle where the subject was tipping and i couldn't fucking believe how many different people and professions think you should automatically tip them. when i agree to pay XX.XX for a service ... THAT IS THE AGREEMENT. there is nothing extra unless you earned it or deserve it. end of story.Comment

FYI
most waitstaff in the US make less the 3.50 an hour on avg so its not what they get paid for
tips are 99% of what a waiter makes for a living

you people crack me up...
"CLASS"
its about "class"
look man... i know it makes you feel better to tell yourself while you are cleaning up after letting some creepy old mans great dane pound you in the ass and you throw him a 10.00 bill. "Hmm.... that was simply delightful... AND ... i've got class" ... but "class" has nothing to do with tipping.Comment

really? everyone who doesn't agree with you is a "scumbag asshole" and "uncivilized"
sounds like a pretty miserable life to me. that means most of your days are filled with scumbags and uncivilized people.

not trueYou = dipshit...
NEVER remove the 20% idiot!
A handful of people don't notice it is on there and tip an additional 15%.
The customer has ZERO idea that you are going to split this gracious $200 tip with everyone else to the point that it will turn into a few bucks...
You are the idiot here... That 20% is there for a reason dipshit!
i was a waiter for many years. i rarely added tip onto the bill. and i had a 25% avg tip for many years at the better houses i worked atComment

No, but there is one that says all parties of 8 or more will have a 20% gratuity automatically added to their bills. It's just that this idiot decided to take it off the bill, and didn't mention it to the customer, so the customer probably thought he was giving a reasonable extra tip on top of the 20%.Comment

I thought I explained what "America" had to do with something, but to elaborate, in many European countries, the tip is built into the menu price, and the service staff take a cut from the day's sales at the end of the day just as they might pool tips and split them here in America.realize... i am from Seattle. not sure what "america" has to do with anything.

Insofar as "class" goes... yeah, you can't really buy it, but I'm not suggesting that anyone's "buying" anything, man... it just is. Just because you tip, it doesn't mean that you're classy, but I do believe that the inverse is true. Stiffing a waiter (again, your right to do), in my estimation, is a pretty significant indicator that you're not a very sophisticated individual.
Putting someone in a position to have to pay for working for you - not exactly justifiable, i think.
But as I implied, I wouldn't necessarily expect you to understand.

Yes and thats where I hate it in the States. They should be paid their min wage by the restaurant like any other worker. All it does is put the weight of paying the employee on the customer and you feel guilted into doing it no matter the service because you know they get paid $2.50 an hour. In Canada they get min wage which is in BC $8/hr. So they get paid. I tip when good service, I tip some for ok service and none for bad service.
In the US I tip no matter what because they paid jack and its a joke. I do make sure they know why they got "less" though. The real sad part is the cost of food in the US restaurants and the Canadian restaurants is barely anything, yet the US places pay $5 less per hour to each waiter/waitress on staff. So who really is the loser and winner?XXXRewards - Karups - Boyfun - Jawked. Paying on time since 1997. Contact me at brent [at] xxxrewards.comComment

ha. good point. kinda funny actually.No, but there is one that says all parties of 8 or more will have a 20% gratuity automatically added to their bills. It's just that this idiot decided to take it off the bill, and didn't mention it to the customer, so the customer probably thought he was giving a reasonable extra tip on top of the 20%.
i also understand the difference between a big party and the demands of that big party vs two people having lunch and situations where it can be expected to add a service charge or gratuity to the bill.
i just don't agree that some waitress in some crappy restaurant is entitled, regardless of her performance, the overall experience and whether she earned it or not.
its fine to argue as forest is that tips are considered part of their wages. but that has nothing to do with the fact that just because most people tip, that tips are an entitlement regardless of quality of service.
to me, bad service deserves nothing... great service deserves a lot... average service deserves something.Comment

jackass... we are basically saying the same thing... yet you "wouldn't expect me to get it"... because i have no "class" (using your best forum Donald Trump vs Rosie impression)Yes and thats where I hate it in the States.

as you said above... i don't see tips as being an entitlement. of course i tip.
its not what waiters and waitresses gets paid that influences my decision. the hourly wage is lower because the hourly wage isn't their sole source of income on the job and has almost ZERO to do with their actual earnings. what they earn depends on them, their skill and whether or not they are professional and do a great job.Comment

not that they are cheap just that their system is different then ours
i did the same for most euros for the same reason
While tipping is still an option that is based on service it is still a common courtesy imho to tip atleast 15% if you received good service.
My avg tip starts at 20% as i was in the biz along time and i know how hard the work is. Now with that being said you can work your way down in the tip very easily and i have been known to tip 25 even 30% for exceptional serviceComment

yeah but they add the "cost" of the waitstaff into the price of the food.
there is no difference in the end of the price of the meal generally
just here in the states u get the option to pay a little more if you get better service or not pay for the service at all
For instance some friends and i went to a national chain restaraunt last night. the waiter was fucking horrible and that reflected in a 10% tip
I always leave a tip. how much u get depends on how good your service isComment

not really. most fine dining places have front and back waiters bus help wine stewards ect ect. but what most dont consider is all these people take a % of the tip
so this allows for more table side service from the front waiter and keeps the service at a level one should expect from a finer dining est.Comment
