    Minimum wage, which is $7.25/hour, and not even close to the bare minimum to be able to survive, because it hasn’t been raised in nearly 15 years!

    Fuck off with that logic. If you go to a nice restaurant in the U.S. and you don’t tip, you’re a fucking scumbag. No doubt.

      Nah. If the service is great I’ll give 15% and that’s about it.

      If the service is anything less, no tip. Like why would I give extra beyond what my meal costs for no reason?

        1. 15% is low. So, what you’re saying is that you’re always a bad tipper.

        2. There are tons of factors that can make a good server give bad service. A kitchen that’s lagging behind, for example, is totally out of their control. Another table that demands a lot of attention can also throw off service. You’ve clearly never worked in a restaurant.

        3. Most people tip because they’re not heartless. I don’t think their reasoning applies to you.
