[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly I used to be all agitated about tipping but then I thought, you know what? This hourly worker probably needs the extra $2-$5 a lot more than I do. I am fortunate to live the life I have and giving an extra $2 to the guy who hails the cab is not going to break the bank. [/quote] Exactly. At restaurants, I tip 20% standard and up to 25% for awesome service. For terrible service, I don't go below 15%. The difference to me is just a few dollars, but when they see the check they'll think "Sweet! 20%!" instead of "Ugh, only 15% again." I only waitressed one summer in college and I still remember this feeling... especially when obviously wealthy people would leave a tiny tip. On the other hand, I only tip $1-2 on takeout (out of guilt) because what service area you even tipping for? [/quote]
