      @@PaddyRoon7 Its only big in America, but Canada as well. If you go anywhere in Quebec there is instantly, 20% added to your bill. The rest of Canada and as far as I know, America is similar. In every other province other than Quebec & America, the servers make LESS than minimum wage. They reily on tips to make due.
      Here where I live, is $14.25 min wage an hour, servers get $11/hr.
      Your tips as well as going to the servers to make up for their shitty wage, also goes to the kitchen staff. Assuming the restaurent has a good manager.
      Kitchen staff in Europe/England are generally better paid than those in the same jobs, in North America.

    Honestly I’m with Karl on the tip story. I’m American and the tip system is awful, mainly because it’s a gray area and no one is consistent about it. Plenty of people won’t leave a dime and yet you’ll have generous people leaving 25% of their entire bill. On top of that, the idea of the waiter running back to give Karl the tip back is just rude and insulting. It’s not Karl’s fault we have this system in place, the waiter was an entitled brat. If you’re going to work that job, you have to expect that some patrons won’t leave a tip. At least he tried. Most service jobs would fire you over that kind of behavior

      He already paid for the steak dinner though. The tip is just for someone to bring it to him on a plate from the kitchen and that's just someone's job they are already being paid to do that anyway. Tips are a dumb idea really.

      Yes, tips are a dumb idea. That doesn't make it ok to avoid giving them. It isn't like your protest is going to change anything. All you will succeed in doing is living off of what *other* people paid. (The servers probably wouldn't be able to afford to work their without tips, so the decent tippers are paying for the shitty ones.)

    I kind of agree with Karl that America gets on my nerves. Really only the past 4 years though, all I've heard on the news is Trump being stupid and his legion of idiots defending him until their last breath, really makes you sick of the fact America exists.
    Hopefully they can quiet down a bit this year so I can go back to not minding them.
