i always tip really good at restaurants and bars. 20%+. Drivers and starbucks, i am very cheap. they make minimum wage

when i was a waitress/bartender, i didn't make even close to minimum wage. i got a shift pay that was low and i split tips with the other bartender.
see people don't believe they get paid less the minimum.

I'm sorry, but why would you tip someone who walks 50 feet with your order more than one who drives a few miles and wastes their gas and puts wear and tear on their vehicle? You can't assume they make minimum wage just so you feel better about being cheap. If you don't want to tip, then get it yourself.

Pay Period Low Median High

Hourly $5.78 $7.14 $12.46

Annual $12,000 $14,800 $25,900


Not sure how accurate that is, got it from careeroverview. But these people make shit, I'm lucky to make 3x that and not have to bust my ass all day long and come home smelling like food (if you ever lived with someone who works with food, they don't smell too good after work).

I always piss my wife off over tipping; she is a tight ass and I tip very generously. Our daughter used to wait tables so I know what shitty work it is and how little they get paid.

Its not my job to pay their salary, their employer should do that. I earned my money, I'm not just going to give it away because of some long standing social standard. Fucking suck my dick everytime I eat at your resturaunt, now theres a social standard that I could accept.

if I tip, it's because it's deserved, not because I owe it to them. do a shitty job and you get nothing.

Thats like saying when i go out to buy things i don't expect tax.. What you don't understand is that they under pay their staff so you can get lots of food for cheap .

Whats the best way to put this to a grower!?... when you buy a light online you pay for it & you pay for shipping. They dont tell you about the shipping bill till the end but its there.

You must pay a shipping bill to the waiter for bringing you your food. if you dont its ok your ignorant.

Why you guys hatin? I said, in other words, that I don't agree with the standard, yet I still do tip when I get good service and I dont' when I get bad service. Tips are suppose to be an unexpected personal thank you from one person to another for going above and beyond in their daily grind, they are not a fucking paycheck.

And I am an asshole, were you just pointing out the obvious or something?

Holy crap dude, really I'm just having fun here but your argument above looks like it was conceived by a 10 year old considering the lack of depth.

I do expect tax cause its the law. Tips aren't required by law.

The underpaying of their staff is no fucking concern of mine. They either have quality affordable food I want, or they don't. I'm not there for alot of food for cheap, I'm there to have a meal that I will enjoy. I eat to live, I don't live to eat.

Best way to put it to a grower would be to not assume that I'm going to agree with your bullshit just because I grow. I buy a light online I expect to pay shipping as I understand the price of the light is just for that, and that the shipping is additional because I didn't pick it up at their store, and they have to inform me of all charges before they charge my card, so again I know to expect shipping. If a resturaunt wants to inform me in some way prior to my ordering of food that gratuity is a required fee, thats fine, I'll just fucking leave like I always do at places like that.

I don't have to pay a shipping bill to the waiter because I'm right fucking there, they didn't have to ship it anywhere. They carried it 25 feet from the kitchen to me, thats there job, I'm not their employer so I won't worry about paying their wages. Now, if this same person is prompt in coming back to me, never leaves me with an empty glass for more than couple minutes, etc, then I will tip them according to their level of service. The amount I pay for my food is just that, my food bill, not a server bill.


Ignorant? Lol, no. I'm just an asshole.

But why cant you just tip? Are you really that broke?

Poor people should stick to canned vegetables and top ramen.
