If you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to eat out

If you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to eat out.

The entire restaurant industry is dependent on tipping, and this is a good thing because it insures that everyone in the place is working extra hard just for you.

In countries where they don't tip have shit service and the price of food is marked up proportionately. At least you have some power over how hard the whole restaurant is run.

If you don't tip you might save a buck, but in time food will become more expensive so you really didn't save anything.

I kind of have to tip because I go to the same restaurants and they know me, and I don’t want them spitting in my food.

defending the stupidest system ever invented

Be fair now; how can Lesean Mccoy afford to tip on his NFL salary

this

Why is it the customer's responsibility to pay for the rest of your missing pay?
Why can't your bosses actually pay you, instead of cutting off money from your pay.

BECAUSE THAT'S THE WAY IT WORKS!!

should i not tip you?

Nah
Find a better job like the rest of us.

Try tipping in Japan.
They'll tell you to GET THE FUCK OUT!
.
If you're not working hard for your wages and will only show initiative through getting money from customers who are already paying for their meal, and applicable taxes even though you already have an hourly wage, then quit and get another job

>stupidest system ever invented
Or... the most brilliant one. Think about it from the owners perspective. Look at how much more profit he pockets while he lets his own customers pay his wait staff for busting their asses all night long.

if you want to. it's not customary though

...

Yeah that $50 20z steak isnt marked the fuck up at all is it?

I refuse to tip baseline, if the service is exceptional and is worth noting to my friends/gf at the resturant, then ill tip. Otherwise you make minimum wage for your shitty service

Dubs speak truth
OP stop being a bitch

>tfw i work only 4 hours a night and make around 200$ on tips
>tfw i work part time and make around 5k a month
keep tipping faggots

>The entire restaurant industry is dependent on tipping, and this is a good thing because it insures that everyone in the place is working
extra hard just for you.

the waiters are not the owners

No
let's stop tipping.

In germany we usually don't tip and have very low prizes at restaurants.

"If you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to eat out."

then i simply don't eat their and make me something at home instead so the low class restaurant donn't get anything

fuck your tip system!

We tryed once to tip at an restaurant in italy and they refused. We even payd less then we had to.

Beautiful

In Europe they add gratuity to your bill but in America and Canada (where I live) servers depend on tips.

That said, I only tip for good service. I do agree that if you can't afford to tip you can't afford to eat out, but I also think they have to earn that tip. I've even gone as far as to mention I was unimpressed with the service when paying my bill and not tipping.

$2.13
Even shit skin kids in sweat shops earn more.
American dream uh..?

I don't think you want to site the international leader in weird behavior as the place to get your behavioral ques from.

Quit your job
Or you can pocket some of the money

I always give a tip, find a better job, dont be looking at me to subsidise your wages.

Tipping in restaurants uses the same idiotic pricing structure as booking hotels in USA.

>look at this cheap food
Oh wait, plus tax, plus tip it's actually not cheap
>look at this cheap hotel room
Oh wait, plus tax, plus 'resort fee' it's not cheap at all

Fuck you, you entitled little shit, you're not getting anything

Surely the best way to ensure people get paid what other people think they should earn is to create an unnecessary middle man and tell him that he gets to keep as much of the money as the customers give him and pass along to the people that did the work as much or as little as he likes.

proof ur claims or u are gay as fuck and a liar

>Lesean

Daily reminder that niggers don't tip and if you don't tip you're basically a nigger.

>"the employer must make up the difference"
retard

I see reading isnt your strong point is it?
Wait staff get paid an hourly + tips. If they dont make minimum wage with that hourly + tips they get reimbursed minimum wage by the owner.

In my country theres no tipping and even then its a new thing.
You shoukd get paid by youre employer!
Tipping should be banned.
Its one of the most retaarded things evented along with the imperial measuring system and fahrenheit degree system and measuring distance in time as americans say its 10 minutes away, but 10 minutes going at what speed stupid?!

My point being americans are degenerate.

if your service was shit you don't get tips.
If I don't tip and the waiter says something I might get angry.

No, in my opinion you should be paid in full without the need of tips.
Honestly it's pathetic, so let's say everyone boycotts tipping and then you can enjoy your pittance while the modern world earns good wages.

>LESEAN MCCOY
is anyone else tempted to find this guy online and troll him, and then "leak" OP's picture to ultimately get OP fired?

Let's say the average waiter takes care of 4 tables with 4 diners per table. My average meal can cost up to 12 dollars- so $48 per table.
The average tip can range from 10%(cheapo) to 25%
So this waiter will be making about $5 - $12 per table, $20-$48 from those 4 tables. I'd say a normal meal takes me about an hour, assuming this is during lunch break. That waiter just made $22.25 - $50 something bucks in just one hour of work.
I'm just doing rough guesstimates off of some quick Google searches and personal experience

>If you can't afford to tip, you cant afford to eat out.
WRONG!
>The entire restaurant industry is dependant on tipping
WRONG AGAIN BITCH, all management and cooking staff couldnt give a fuck less what youre making in tips cause it doesnt affect us in any way. YOURE the only person dependant on tipping cause YOURE the only person who gets tipped. and also youre stupid enough to pick a profession dependent on something with a very high level of fluctuation

youre just a fucking idiot who wants to complain like this is facebook or something
>WAAAAAHHH I DIDNT MAKE ANY TIPS TODAY
>WAAAAAHHHHH IF YOU CANT PAY MY BILLS FOR ME, THEN DONT EAT OUT
fucking kys you whiny cunt

And yet you're using The Internet, which was created by Americans(DARPA). You're posting on an American Anime Website.

Seems you love Americans so much that you cant stop talking about them!!!!!!!
Meanwhile, we never think of your thirdworld shitpoor country ever in our lives

No here
They should be paid minimum wage before tips, and any tips should be equally shared out each month as a bonus.
The tipping system is another jewish trick to collect money

>If you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to eat out.
I can afford to tip and eat out, but I refuse to go anywhere where begging is expected.

hmm thats a pretty good idea, user

Tipping is another form of welfare for blacks. Without tipping, they wouldn't be able to eat out anymore without the white subsidy. We need to keep tipping for this reason!

This I commend you user FUCK TIPPING NOT MY FAULT YOU CHOSE TO BE A NIGGER AND DON'T WANT TO WORK A REAL JOB

I never tip. It's not required. Restaurant owners could pay their employees, but they choose not to. As do I. The greek nigger who owned the restaurant next to me would spend hundreds on lottery tickets every single night.
Don't look to people who pay for 10 meals to get just one in a restaurant to hand you cash for fetching.

What kind of damn fool...

This is correct, my gf used to bring home $100-200 every night on top of her pay, $50 would be a very slow day. Servers that complain about people not tipping either need to: a) find a better place to work, or b) stop giving a shit when they make less than $100 in a shift.

There are several key differences between US standard and imperial measurement. Standard actually predates imperial although they both come from traditional english units.

Who's stupid now?

America is Europes creation, you should be thankful.
So any invention or descovery you guys claim is actually European.

>be brainwashed americunt
>work for americunt entrepreneur who keeps your wages low so he can return an unreasonably high profit
>blame this low income on the customer and condemn them for not vaguely overpaying a service that for some fucking reason doesn't have your wages calculated in it because your entire stupid fucking country religiously upholds a messed up system that aims at short-term growth built on the expandability of its citizens effectively blocking any chances of personal or intellectual growth

At least Hungary has a 15% service fee listed on the bill, and I saw five guys throwing up on the streets the two nights I was there

when eating for one the normal 15% tip is small. sometimes it's like the server was expecting more. not on a 15 dollar check bitch.

i wonder how to you could find him. Maybe go to buffalobills.com

One could argue that any place that *expects* tips is in fact a form or extortion. The very definition of the job in which you are paid to do is to provide good (or at least decent) service. If a customer does not give 'protection money' in the form of a decent tip, then the following time or times they return, the chances of good service (and food that has not been tampered with) go down servery.

I *really* hate expected tipping. Why should I pay more for you to do the job you were hired to do? Now then, if you really impress me, go above and beyond my expectations, I'll drop a hefty tip because I feel like you've earned it. Instead, I'm forced to pay an ever growing amount (remember when the standard tip was 10%? 15%? Now there are places 'suggesting' 20% tips!) or basically be black balled at any place I want to eat.

I had a friend who ran cable and set up devices for a TV/internet provider. Not exactly the kind of job one expects to get tips in. They worked so hard and went out of their way to make sure that the customer was happy that they regularly came home with $60 to $100 in tips. That's the way tipping should be.

How's your Australian WiFi?

dubs of truth

Fuckin A
Tipping just about anywhere outside Trumpland is considered an insult.

if you cant afford to live without getting tips, you should have tried harder in school.

Told.

Not awesome. I can't get wifi here, have to rely on mobile networks for my porn fix.
But taxes aren't too terrible, our pollies only very occasionally become international laughing stocks, and we're considered pretty chill overall.

Win some, lose some I guess

If you can’t afford to work without tips you shouldn’t be working their.

The bigger questions. Is why are tips percentage based? Why does the server get more because I ordered a big ass steak vs a salad? He's doing the same work.

>20 cent tip
be glad you didnt get just a penny, you fuckin faggot

so are you a stripper?

This. For fucking real.

When did tipping become expected and what kind of balls do you have to have to ask 20 percent? For what, fucking moving a plate and refilling a glass of water?

Waiters should unionize and demand actual wages instead of throwing fits over a stiffed tip. But they'd rather brow beat customers into ever growing protection rackets.

I never tip because its your fault you have a shitty underpaid job not mine. If you want to earn a wage you can live on get a better job. The hospitality industry is full of drunks and drug addicts anyway.

It's not about if I can afford to tip. It's about if you deserve to have a tip. It's a principle thing. Does any other occupation expect tips? When was the last time you tipped a McDonald's employee or a movie theater usher? They do the same shit and get terrible wages.

Why? So they could make less money on average? A waiter that does their job is getting at least 10-20% tip. It's only the poor neckbeards and shitty employees who, would be fired otherwise, that are complaining about tipping.
The rest of us Americans accept and continue the custom of tipping those that do their job correctly

Yeah its easy to skip tipping when I see my waitress just chilling in the back talking. And then gets pissy when I send my cold food back.

You shouldn't be tipped for doing your job. That's the whole fucking arguement. Tips are for exception service. Not because you decided to do your job today.

This

Nobody accepts tipping in america. They do it because they don't want druggie spitting in their food. Or risk a meltdown from their dropout waiter, and shit like ops picture where they blast you online.

Actually, it was at first invented in CERN, DARPA only copied them and then it went on from there. And yeah, americans meing too "elite"(backwards) to use normal units is a mistery to me.

This is where the system falls apart.

If a server's tips don't cover minimum wage, then they get reimbursed by the owner up to minimum. And the owner can't complain, they'll get that shit back on tax if they aren't morons. Its just a way for servers to get well above minimum wage without the owners having to pay it. And let's be honest, are there any servers here who meticulously report every tip on their taxes? Really?

Its a fucked up system system. Go work in a factory. No fucker there is going to give you an extra $10 for sweeping the floor.
Go work in an office. Want a bonus? You're going to have to work fucking hard on that shit. And don't get me started on the bullshit that is 'internship'.

From a fucking NFL fag?
I'd put it on twitter and let it go viral.

Everyone in this thread

japan is an overrated shithole

You literally just write a number you view as reasonable. If I'm sitting at the table for 1hr and the server spent 5 min interacting with me, and my bill was $20, I'll tip between $2 and $4. If my bill was $100 I'll tip maybe $5

You're right. In the context of tipping that's what I meant by 'correctly'. If they do the bare minimum I still tip a modest amount like 10% which usually amounts to 1 to 2 bucks just because i know they have shitty wages.

Nah, they're still entitled to minimum wage.

Which is pretty shitty, but its better than the $2/hr or whatever bullshit they claim

This. Nail him to the cross.

kek on all the poors here trying to justify not tipping.

20% unless they are a lazy nigger

Also as I understand it, the restaurant owner can also claim back taxes to top up the salaries of the staff up to minimum wage?

nigga you got this from Reddit

restaurant scam
educate yourself a little
watch Adam Ruins Everything on tipping
google it
youtube it
figure this shit out yourself

"Lol, you don't just throw away money"

>educate yourself
>College Humor video

Are you retarded?

I just realized. He's an NFL player. He has a handful of years worth of brain damage already. He probably asked his friend "yo dawg how much should I tip?"
"20%"
"aight thanks"
>leaves 20 cent tip
He don't know no better

The system is shit, but this guy ate $60 worth of food and gave a tip of fucking 0.60 cents. He definitely could have afforded a better tip..

I got a legit question.
I like to order out from restaurants sometimes and eat at home.
Do I still need to leave a tip even though all I do is call and pick up?

Nope.

>greentext
>Reddit

Pick one you colossal shit stain.

Onus for paying wages should be on the employer, not the customer but we live in a shitty faggot country that doesn't actually give a fuck about the rights of workers so just leave a few extra dollar for the poor faggot who has to clean up your half eaten mayonnaise slop.

>The entire restaurant industry is dependent on tipping
Only in burgerland.

kys turbo nigger faggot, that image came from reddit. and you should be ashamed of your faggot self for pretending like it didnt.

The tip system is retarded and clearly favors the business owners over their employees in a disproportionate way. Minimum wage should be minimum wage no matter what fucking job you have. I usually always tip anyway though because I know it's not really the employees fault. I mean they could just get a different job but then we wouldn't have servers, delivery, or bartenders. And I like those things being available to me.

this

If you need to be tipped you work in the wrong place...

I'll tip if they deserve it.

I've never been out of the country to a sit and eat restaurant, but isn't it also true that American portions are huge compared to what you'd get at a typical non American restaurant?
That sort of factors in to why I tip.
I almost always get 2 meals for the price of one (including tip)

This is what niggers do
