y'all tipping based on 'quality of service' have clearly never had to work at a restaurant



Why the **** would I tip someone who's **** at their job or plain rude, if you are a dick head I will treat you as such.


It's a bit like buying the mechanic who fucked up your car a case of beer etc., if people do a bad job let them know, so they 1. can improve or 2. find something else to do.

Try giving your bike mechanic a bottle of hard alcohol. He'll treat you like you donated bone marrow to his dying mother.

The problem is that your tip is always split between a variety of people. It's always split between the cooks, the finishing person, and the waiter, and sometimes it's split across the waitstaff. So if you liked the food and hate the service, you're screwing over the chef (who you liked) to get back at the waiter. Unless the experience is truly horrid (I got ignored by a bartender for 45 minutes straight while he talked to his coworkers), just tip 20%.

Is it still generosity if you're expected to have to pay a tip?

No, but the converse is true. You are being mean by refusing to tip.

I live in one of those before mentioned countries where tipping isn't customary, as the tip/service is part of the price of the meal, I believe waiters make $20 an hour, plus what ever you give them, if you are really satisfied.

I don't see it as getting back at him, but you reap what you sow and bad tips are a result of such, if I worked somewhere where I was depended on tips and someone fucked up my money, I would let him or the boss, know as it could be costing the boss money as well.
