Do I tip? Only when the staff goes beyond their responsibilities to service me.

- I don't tip for pity, that's disrespectful.
- I don't tip for the job, that's condescending.
- I don't tip for the bill, that's unfair.

Fedi, do you tip on self-service/ready-to-go meals?

Ex. Prepared wraps, sandwiches, salad bowls or similar; drinks, chips or snacks, cookies, etc. Where you simply grab what you want and go to pay at the staffed cash.

tipping culture in North America, and especially in Canada is out of hand. The last five restaurants I was handed a card reader at to pay my bill presented the following tip options:

18%
20%
25%

I know restaurant servers work hard. I know baristas at quality-driven cafes work hard. But I'm fed up with owners expecting customers to cover a substantial portion of their workers' wages via tips. Fed up.

I am no longer tipping more than 15% for exceptional, first rate service at full service restaurants, and I will no longer tip for take out coffee served from a big batch brewer. I will continue to tip $0.50 to $1 for a hand crafted coffee beverage.

That's it.

Normally I don't give a fuck about negative feedback, but am I in the wrong here or is #reddit just full of jerks?

When thinking about the percentage of a tipping, I had a concern. Let’s say all incomings of a waiter/waitress is from a 20% tipping, that means 1/6 of the price belongs to the waiter/waitress. It means the waiter/waitress makes 1/6 value of a meal.
Is it an appropriate proportion for running a restaurant? What is the proportion for fixed cost? How much is the percentage of price will one chef get?

#Tipping #nudges are very successful. But they have begun to create social pressures that make it doubtful customers feel they are an improvement to their well-being. Their decision making #autonomy is hurt.
