I tip, in the hope that the person doesn't spit in my food
People that refuse to tip are the worst

Ain't shyt
If you know that's how they make a living and don't do it then you're a dikkhead. I hate it too but as someone that's been on the other side you don't wanna be that guy that doesn't tip, especially if you're a regular lol.

So you cool with enforcing a broken system that preys on the lowest rungs of society.
Me not tipping helps these people understand the unfair system and gains more voices for the 15$ min wage.

I tip based on their service and attitude.
Make me like them and they get a great/good tip if they are just there then they get a regular/good tip, if i get
vibes you get a shyt tip.
Was hanging with my homeboy over the weekend at his crib and we ordered a pizza. Said I got it. When the delivery came I gave him the cash and told him to let the dude keep the change
My homebody came back with the pizza and handed me my change
Me: Yo I said let him keep it
Him: You actually tip these nikkas?
Me: There wasn’t a reason not to
So we get into this whole debate about tips. Been out with this nikka 100s of times over the past couple decades. Found out he didn’t even tip bartenders. I never knew this shyt. Even tho I have seen him blow whole wads of cash on tipping strippers
His said it’s dumb as hell to get a job that relies on tips. I said it’s even more dumb to use the services of somebody who relies on tips and then refuse to do it. Basically you a free loader. He said he should be able to go out and have a good time without the hassle of tipping people
I told him he’s a special kind of dikk head
How the coli feel about this?

As his boy, you had to speak truth to his dusty tendencies for his own good. What makes it more egregious is that he brought YOUR money back to you, denying the delivery guy money that wasn't even his.
Yeah, we'd have to talk.
i don't tip
Those are menial jobs, doesn't take a degree or PHD to drive a damn car or carry food from the kitchen to the front. Yo act as if these people are surgeons, CEOs & mathematicians. These jobs are jobs you do when you're a teen during summer break or weekends at college not a job you do for a freaking living when you pay rent and have kids. That's why they're minimum wage jobs, they require NO skills.

If you look at the human element, many people work tip jobs because they paying for school, paying for a child, or paying for extra bills. So based on that I think its fair to tip them to show appreciation.
Even if they doing none of the above and just doing it because they have no choice, its still fair to tip them as long as they not being a jerk. They clearly struggling to get by.

I tip because I have some friends that are in the food and bev industry so I know what they go through. I tend to agree with the "don't have enough for a tip, don't go out" crew. shyt, just order takeout and pick it up yourself.
But i have some friends that believe they're entitled to that tip regardless of service quality. That's where I tend to disagree. Them working at a place that doesn't pay a livable wage shouldn't equate to me giving them money if they did a horrible job.
My boy is a bartender, but that muthafukka will get pissed off if he has to a make anything other than beer or shots during big events. If it requires more than two ingredients, he'll cop an attitude. I'm like "nikka, you're about to walk out of here with damn near a g for 8 hours, you'll be fine with making that stupid ass girl a long island."

Definitely should tip people. That's only right. I hate going anyplace with cheapskates. My Aunt and Uncle are tightfisted like this and I always make sure to bring enough money to cover the tip when we go out since they won't contribute. They go to my church too and my uncle always does one of two things: he either asks the ushers to give him change from what he puts in the collection plate or he pretends like he doesn't see it's being passed to him at all smh

I’m not enforcing anything that preys on the lowest rungs of society. You act like I’m talking about tipping people that dig ditches
But you know damn well all the reasons you just gave aren’t really why you don’t tip. Your just using it as justification. You prolly weren’t tipping long before the idea of a $15 minimum wage even existed
The same people in these tipping threads always saying "Just pay the employees more, I'd be glad to pay more for my food" are full of shyt and I guarantee buy tons of items on Amazon instead of going to a store where they'd pay more..

It's pretty simple. If you don't think you can afford to go out to eat AND tip or are just an a$$hole, don't go out. Cook it your damn self.

Right. All it is is justification. I’d rather deal with reality than how it should be. And the reality is that there are jobs where people rely on tipsThe same people in these tipping threads always saying "Just pay the employees more, I'd be glad to pay more for my food" are full of shyt and I guarantee buy tons of items on Amazon instead of going to a store where they'd pay more.
Also at the same time I ain’t trying to see the 2 for $20 at Applebee’s be increased to 2 for $50
