Usually I tip, but I'm not a firm believer in the mandatory tip. If your service wasn't exceptional or there wasn't some hitch that made my order/service harder than the norm, don't expect a high tip. If your service was shitty, don't expect a tip at all. People are hardcoded that tip is part of the payment you're making for a service, when in reality its a bonus. Sure, they make lower wages sometimes because of the tips, but they go into their job/workplace knowing that full-well and, as a response, should try to exceed expectations to receive said tip.
@(you need an account to see links): I would actually go as far as to say that its larger than dine-in. We live in such a fast-paced culture now that a lot of people don't have time to sit down and eat.
Yeah that sounds about accurate, but only if you include delivery. Since delivery was a service that often receives tips too, I separated it from taking-food out. From my experience, take-out is a good chunk of business, but does not exceed dine-in. IF you were to bunch delivery+ take-out together however, it would overwhelm dine-in by a hell of a lot. Can feed more people per hour (more orders taken) for delivery than you can for dine-in, so it only makes sense.
Cause someday I'll be OVER 9,000... Rep!
It's also cheaper. Less physical space = less rent and less upkeep than delivery. Most companies make their drivers pay for their own gas and pay them below minimum because of tips, so it overall balances out. You also have the fact that one driver can deliver upwards of 5-10 deliveries per trip if they do it correctly. GPS manufacturers are actually including multi-stop routing for this reason alone.Originally Posted by Ciricus

o.o
Baller?
lol well i liked my tattoo it was awesome it had alot of meaning to me though thats why
I'm from Spain and I only tip 15% if they are nice
No, I live in Australia where tipping is not customary or necessary, most people that you refer to as "severs" actually get paid decently. most get paid $15 to $20 if not higher, if they do an outstanding job than i leave a tip but then it's my choice. I understand the concept of tipping but i hated it when i was in america, severs where sometimes rude and other times just didn't care about you or your food so why should i leave them a tip? then the places that automatically think that they can just add on tips even without asking you WTF, or if you order a $10 meal and pay with a $20 and they just assume that $10 is a tip.
People that don'y push for tips and actually provide good service should get tipped, if you not getting tips than maybe you should take another look at yourself when working
Shitty servers get pissed if u barely tip. I just laugh and say if you want to be tipped well, pay more attention to your customers, just becuase we seem younger doesn't mean I don't deserve the same service as an older couple. Then I stick a sticky grenade on them and run.
