FUKK IM NEVER TIPPING AGAIN!!!!!!

[GetInTheTruck]

If your service was so-so you get no tip. If your service was good, 10%, excellent service is rare these days so I usually tip mroe than 20%...doesnt happen often though.

Tipping at a bar? lol at that happening in England

LOL I know! America is tip crazy.

Tipping is some sucker shyt. Unfortunately, it's some sucker shyt that I participate in, but I haven't allowed myself to be brainwashed into thinking that it isn't some sucker shyt.


It's a complete money grab which has little to do with quality of service. Which is why society uses the % of the bill technique. If I order a shot of Johnny Walker Blue instead of a Johnny Walker Red, why should the tip change?

Society has been conned into subsidizing the restaurant industry's workforce for some reason.

Drinks like that are normally $1 no matter which.

But why are you drinking Johnny Red?

I know why you don't tip

 

[JBoy]

I always laugh when dudes give the "I didn't have any extra money" excuse if you barely have any extra money, why are you at a it down place?

Oh, I'm not

Just wanted to use an easy example of the same service for two very different prices. And I was thinking in terms of ordering that during a sit-down meal, not ordering at the bar.

another trick waiters will do (that chick i know dropped a lot of knowledge) is that sometimes waiters/waitresses will fukk up an order on purpose and then apologize a lot and "hook you up" with a little something extra (maybe a free soft drink, something small like that) so that you tip them more.

 

[Doctor Gonzo]

i understand people's gripes w the restaurant industry and compensation structure for service people. but why take it out on the wait staff? if you're going to frequent the establishment and line the owner's pockets anyway. i mean let's be real, most people take waiting jobs as a last resort. especially in this economy. most people aren't aspiring to serve food as their career. so why punish these people to spite the owners?

It's obvious that a lot of these posters have no understanding of the restaurant business, nor have they ever worked a service job.

Being a waiter/waitress is a shytty setup.

Damn that shyt racist than a muuug LOL

I was reading this thread with my jaw dropped all the while, I understand that you can feel willing to voluntarily tip someone for nice service but had no idea so many of you people actually auto-tip regardless of service. And also feel forced to auto tip. Wow. Well I gotta ask some questions.

What is the purpose of you tipping if your not doing it based on the service your receiving? I mean honestly are you tipping to not look cheap/fit in?

Why does the owner pay the waiter in the first place? Just to put on his/her Uniform and show up? Wtf. Why are you paying the waiter to do what the management is paying the waiter to do? ESPECIALLY if he doesnt do it specifically good??

I do tip, never on percentage and only for good service. Just w/e change I have on hand at the moment.. usually a few bucks to say thank you.

Dont gimme that b/s excuse about people not understanding the service industry. I work in the service industry (not as a waiter) and when a client comes to my establishment I give them standard service because THATS WHAT I GET PAID TO DO: Provide a service. Now bear in mind, people who tip me will ALWAYS get perks. However if you dont tip me fine, I lose no sleep and i still do my job. Why am i entitled to free $ for doing what I AM GETTING PAID TO DO? If I didnt like the rate, I should not have accepted the job!! Not accept it and then punish everyone who doesnt help me make more money. I mean honestly, something is logically wrong here with this auto-tip thing.

You not tipping the waiter does nothing to hurt the owner cause he got your $60 and he's still only paying the waiter $2-3/hr.

The system won't change because there's a bunch of people willing to jump at the chance for that job.

And saying "Get another job if you don't like it" does nothing, do people thing the waiter job is gonna disappear?

Man it's simple. If your job is so bad that:

-it takes little to no skill
-there are a ton of other people willing to take it

Then don't be surprised when your boss pays you little and leaves you at the mercy of something like a tip system. If you don't want to rely on the unpredictability of tips and the generosity of strangers don't take a waiter job. Do what you gotta do to avoid them. The job will still exist regardless but let some other guy deal with it.

I've never worked as a waiter and never will, I don't have time for that shyt. I don't feel sorry for people that put themselves in that position. You knew the deal when you signed up. Same basic thing is true for any job where the supply of people willing /capable to do it >>> the demand. If your boss can fukk you over he more than likely will. Don't get mad at customers cause they won't throw a few extra dollars your way.
