somewhere between 15% and 20%. Whatever ends up being closest to making my total a whole-dollar amount.
eh it depends..my roommate is a waiter and he makes tips up the butthole, he'll come home with 150 bucks when i just worked my ass off for even longer than he did and barely got 70, so yeah i tend to shed tips lightly, fuck off waiters/waitresses, i earned my cash too.
where exactly in america do you live? i live in pennsylvania and while you dont technically HAVE to tip, its a pretty big dick move if you dont. and $5? depends on how much you ordered. i mean if i order $20 worth of food, ill tip around 4 or 5, but i would not consider $5 to be a lot, if you order a lot of food. i mean if you order like $50 worth of food, i would hope you would tip more than 5TehCookie said:
Naw, more like hot sandwich, soup, and fries. For both of us. Comes out at around $9-$10.Boundless Apathy said:
Or dim sum, at a really nice place. 5-7 plates of dumplings for about $12-$20
Depends on the service and congeniality of the server. If I were in your situation he would have received no tip for his behavior.
the only way i can continue this conversation now is asking about food seeing as i've never tried dim sum... although for a chinese that's about the same priceHafrael said:
I understand that tips work a little differently in the US, as you guys seem to tip for everything - whether the service you received was good or not.
The most I tip at a restaurant would usually be about 15%, but I would tip very low if the service was particularly bad, just to make a point (which is kind of passive aggressive, but whatever).
A work colleague was telling me that she had a meal out at the weekend and the restaurant included a £40 SERVICE CHARGE. That's when things get out of hand in my book. Regardless of how much the actual bill was (I didn't ask) it's plain wrong for a business to include what, in my book, is an extortionate, compulsory 'tip'.
If your service is good enough for me to tip you, I'll tip you. But I reserve the right to decide how much.

Well Dim Sum is just dumplings. They bring by plates of 3-5 dumplings on these little carts and you pick. Or you choose from a menu with pictures.Boundless Apathy said:
Some places can get really, really pricey. (Like $10+ a plate) But not where I go in north chinatown.
