It's not her fault the food service industry is set up this way, she's just trying to put food on her own table. It's customary in America to tip for good service, like it or not |

2.) In the case of a normal tip, nobody is required to tip anything. Should they tip? In my opinion, sure, if the service was good. However, if they choose not to then that is their choice. 3.) It's customary, but not a law.

18% is getting off light. If you can't afford to tip 20% then you can't afford to dine out.

Yep, that is how I do it too. I get tired of people using the inflation excuse too because your tip already accounts for inflation.

If you have to afford being tipped to make a living, you can't afford working as a waiter. Is 20% the new 10%? I always tip around 15% and I thought it was higher than most. Still, I think tipping is stupid. I think of all the times I have tipped in my life and think back on if I never tipped in my entire life how much better it would be and how much more money I would have.

I want there to not be a "cultural" expectation built into their wages. Pay the waiter a fair and decent wage, and do not allow tips. Ppl will say ohh well ppl will tip anyway. Well retail stores don't allow ppl for the most part to tip, and make it if you accept a tip you are fired. This is one thing I think is BS.

And yes, 20% is the new 15%. I start at 20% and go up or down depending on the service.
