Should you tip the waitress and how much thread

incadenza_sl said:

I went out to dinner with my sister and brother-in-law around christmas time. We went to Dinosaur BBQ in Syracuse and got some sammiches. He ended up tipping the waitress 7 dollars on a 25ish bill. My sister was passive aggresive the rest of the night because she thought he over-tipped because the waitress was attractive.

Simple solution - Don't tip.

nvm sandwiches

i miss the days of higher taxes in canada. used to be 15% tax, so the tax = the tip.

Call desk employee's don't make tips, there are thousands of customer related fields where the servicer is required to be cordial but does not make a tip - explain that. Other than your fat greasy ass likes it when cute girls are nice to them.

Are you asking why call center employees are nice without making tips? Because they make more than minimum wage usually? Because they often get $$$ from upselling or whatever other goals their managers have? They get a liveable wage as a base, basically.

Ah I see so you decided what's a livable wage, because clearly being a waitress/waiter usually doesn't make enough money from tips to sustain themselves, that's why there's so fucking many of them right? Because being coridial to YOU---is a skill set that deserves a tip ONLY when you're a unskilled server versus a skilled technician, because what? Why exactly? Because a technician already can make an honest living...you know because they bring an actual HONEST FUCKING SKILL SET TO THE TABLE? No I get makes total sense bro, completely logical, we should tip because if no one tipped ever...it's not like servers would quit an unacceptable job rate of pay, and business would YOU KNOW therefore change their business model to be in line with the ACTUAL LEVEL OF SKILL it takes to be a server--no everything would turn into a god damn fucking buffet line...you know what it? It actually probably fucking would wouldn't it?


Better yet though, they should legalize prostitution and fucking straight up put Hooters out of business, and most of porn for that matter.

If you ever seen some prostitutes you might think differently.

bro if prostitution were legal there wouldn't be the same stigma, there would be standard, good looking sluts prostituting.

If prostitution was legalized I think many would be surprised at how many good looking chicks would whore themselves out to make some good money.

I tip... usually depending on the service. However, I feel if employers paid their servers properly I would not be obligated to tip. Granted, with that in mind they would just raise the price of the food to cover. If the price of the food was too high we would go elsewhere. Ultimately I feel we would go to a place.. pay higher for the meal if both service and the meal met our expectations. So... we are stuck in a conundrum. Ultimately I don't feel we should tip and this would happen over time. Well paid servers. A higher cost in meals and no worries about how much we should tip. As it stands now that is not the case.

I think it's perfectly acceptable for eating out prices to be raised because of higher waitress wages.

Tipping doesn't really make sense when you think about it I suppose.

It might be harder for some start up restaurants to get up and running but cry me a river, there are already too many shitty restaurants as it is. Anybody complaining about higher prices at restaurants, NEWSFLASH, go cook some food from the grocery store / farmers market yourself. It will probably be better than eating at a cheap ass restaurant anyways.

Basically there already are sluts that do this, date multiple guys, not particularly into one of them (lie to all or most of them, some don't care either way I'm sure) and just use them for their bread winner status. It's just informal.

I know I'm doing my job if giant faggots neg me, I noticed I don't have a neg from Araysar yet though which means I'm not really doing my job. A neg from that faggot is like 300 positive internets.

Having nice tits gives you a crazy bonus in tips.

Also there's less social stigma for sluts than whores.
