[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just ask if the establishment if they use the tipped minimum wage if you want to. Those waiters make far less hourly money, so tipping 15% isn't amazing at full-service restaurant. 
If you are eating at a fast-casual spot, they get above the regular minimum wage, so you shouldn't look at the tipping situations in the same way. $1-3 is just a nice addition. Remember if you're paying via credit card that they are ultimately taking a cut too so your tip may not be quite as generous as you first think.[/quote]

Pre-pandemic, 15% was the norm and waiters were perfectly happy. Post pandemic, waiters who are 'taken advantage of' with the tipping minimum wage system have way too many other options.  Why don't they just quit and work at a Starbucks or a fast-food place and get paid a higher wage?  They didn't pre-pandemic, and they won't now because they make way more than they would otherwise.

Sweetheart, 20% has been the standard for YEARS before the pandemic. Several years. Are you 80?[/quote]
