[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]American service industries incorporate tipping because the owners are incapable to make sure their staff provide the prompt level of service. Neither do they have guts to increase the price outright. Tipping is basically a scam where owners abuse customer's kindness to motivate their own employees. In the restaurant business it's even worse. Owners just cut the employee's pay, and simply take all the tipping into their pockets.

Nobody tips in Asian countries like Japan, China, Taiwan... I don't see their service level going to hell. Actually the service is usually better than these spoiled "service professionals" in the US.[/quote]

I'm sorry, but as a server/ bartender making minimum wage, we rely on our tips to make ends meat. And if your too cheap, stay home and eat for yourself. We also get taxed on our sales with the assumption that we're getting 15% tips, and all tips must be claimed and we get taxed on that as well. So if we get stiffed, we'te paying taxes on money we didn't get. FYI! If your service sucks, I get it. But don't be a cheap.
