"regardless of whether a machine took my order, someone in the back is preparing it" - yeah, it's called them doing their JOB. Why are you tipping for people just doing their basic job?
Tiping is now just e tra tax on employee and the owner. They don't get to take much of a percentage home lol, so I leave cash tip when I feel like it but I shouldn't be required to tip automatically it should be against the law for double taxation..... simple people.
The tipping culture is so wrong in America. Paying workers $7 per hour is wrong and I would tip more in those states. But in WA, they are getting $17 - $20 per hour, a few dollar tips for good service should be it. If the service is excellent, I would tip more. But I hate that there are some restaurants here in Seattle would automatically add a 10% or even 20% service charge. Just ridiculous.
@@matthewc9806 I was one of those servers with a degree and I never felt that way. There are a lot of reasons people go into the service/restaurant industry....and it is rarely to make 6 figures. Unless you are the owner. And it is even hard for them to make 6 figures.
Tipping is *supposed* to be optional. Standard service is called doing your job. If a gift is expected (even demanded), it completely robs all satisfaction and gratitude from the transaction. Glad to see more people waking up to this fact.
Japan does not have tipping, and yet they still can survive. Their customer service is phenomenal. I will only tip if the service is excellent. Just because u got my initial drink and food, that does not mean u should get a 20% tip, especially if I have to ask you to refill my water constantly.

Worst part is they ask for a tip BEFORE I get my food....so im afraid if i do not tip them then the cooks will half ass my pizza or savatoge it or make me wait forever. Forgive my essay long rant....but it is absolutely ridiculous to ask for a 20% tip BEFORE I even eat or see the food which im picking up MYSELF instead of having delivered.
USA and Canada is the only countries I know that still tip. The rest of the world doesn't tip and still gives good service. This wage increase and subsequent food price increase is the last straw for me. Restaurant food prices are already insane. I'm not tipping anymore.
Stopped going aces where tipping is mandatory now, and if online orders doesn't let me to order without paying tips, im buying else where. This tipping is out of control
Not the norm in other counties. Pay your workers a livable wage! A few bucks tips for great service as opposed to a mandatory percentage would be nice. That is how it used to be.
@ where did you get that from? If that’s true at all it would be because their wage without tips isn’t enough. If they had a decent wage without tips they would give up the possibility of a big tip to eliminate getting crummy tips and being short on money. Employers of tipped employees when interviewing prospective employees will play up the tips because the wage is a joke. They are 100 percent getting the benefit of because they save money on wages.
A tip is a little extra thank you for what you believe is exceptional service. A tip is not mandatory, and the % is up to you to determine and not the establishment. I'm not paying more just for you to do your job at the basic / expected level. That is what the bill is for.
I will not tip anymore. Food is expensive already. Restaurants want public to pay their employees. That is a third rate strategy. Include the tip in the food price. Then customer can decide to eat from there or not.
It forces the restaurant industry to pay livable wages. It's sink or swim. I don't tip if there is a machine interface- think Applebee's. I go to restaurants to converse with friends, eat meals I can't make at home, and have someone wait on me that isn't my mother. It's sinful that people aren't paid their worth.
I will ALWAYS tip generously when I am sitting at a table in a restaurant and I have a server who delivers my meal to me. This usually begins with being seated, receiving a menu, giving a drink order, and any pre meal items ( chips and salsa, bread sticks, etc delivered to the table before my order is taken. This is what makes the difference between a real waiter/waitress and a drive-through or online order. I recently ordered lunch online and picked it up myself. When I paid for my meal, there was an option to tip 15, 20, 25, or 30%...but no option for no tip. Like an idiot under pressure, I clicked the 15% rather than ask out loud how not to tip at all. The tip was over $8.00. I will NEVER DO THAT AGAIN.
If I order my food standing up I’m not tipping. That being said, I don’t go out to restaurants because why would I pay extortionate prices? So I don’t tip, and I’ll never work a job where I rely on the American public’s charity to survive
Minimum wage has been $16.28 for all servers in WA and several other states for years (now over $20 in Seattle). And yet there's no difference in the expectation of an extra 25% or more. Wages don't affect the tipping system which is based on social guilt and appearance.
@@Nayr747 yeah. That won’t last. The guilt will eventually go away. We need to pay people the same so nobody has an excuse to guilt anyone into tipping them
I think I'm going back to tipping just 10% if I'm dining in and someone is waiting on me. Otherwise, no tip. Our bill last night had tip recommendations up to 30%! Gtfoh

@@sevalle I also spent years in Europe as a student and a bartender and in the states I was a a server. I absolutely never expected to to be tipped in Germany, but the only way I made my rent in the states was by my tips. I know it isn't fair wages here, but please don't hate the servers for it.
@@ScarletFoundryTarot I don't hate the servers at all unless like I said they act like assholes to their customers. I've worked my share of minimum wage jobs and I get it but to be hostile and angry when you don't get a tip when like I said majority of servers don't do anything except take the order and cash you out I don't think that 5min of work is even worth the $20/hr that they are getting but that's my opinion
Government mandated wage fixing never improves business growth. But it does increase tax income to the state. Restaurants increases prices to cover wage increases. Government wins by sales tax increase. Who loses? The consumer. Decrease tipping or no tipping at all.
Seems like the higher the minimum wage the lower the tip because we no longer pay the bulk of the waitstaff wage. Seems like the more work we have to do….find our own table, walk up, place order, get handed order, walk back to table, bus dishes, etc, etc, etc, the lower the tip. In a full service restaurant, tips get split between front and back. How much do the cooks get? When everything is self service except the preparer, maybe you should just tip the percentage that guy gets in a full service restaurant. Five percent?? Just an idea and a few thoughts.
I've definitely pulled back on tipping. The whole point of tipping was because they were making $4 an hour. They're making significantly more now. Plus with how expensive everything is now I don't see why we should be expected to tip 20% (or more) on top of it. If the service is good I'll still kick them $5-$10 but the days of 18-20% are over. Same with delivery. Nothing for takeout. If you're just handing me a bag full of food, you're no different than the kid at McDonald's.
Just raise the prices of goods/food to where you can pay the workers. Get rid of tips. I'll decided it something is worth it for me to buy/eat out. I'd rather just deal with higher prices than deal with this tip crap.
Tippping is a reward for their service. It is ridiculous to "have" to tip someone 20%. No, you need to earn that by providing excellent service. Saying " hows you're day going so far"😂 is not service.
How much or how little I tip is 100% dependent on quality and level of service. Friendly, prompt, and attentive service = good tip. Slow service, your server barely speaks to you or checks on you, and the food is cold = low or even no tip. Let me put it to you this way. If you take your car to the mechanic for an oil change and he screws it up, are you going to reward him by bringing it back in for major repairs? I don't think so.
in the old days tips were a thing for single ladies with kids taking orders at restaurants, people would leave tips to help them out with their children, tips were not meant for people working full-time making good money, most of these low end jobs are paying 20 a hour and the workers are living at home with mommy and daddy so 20 a hour they should be living high on the hog. the tip thing nowadays has gotten out of hand, a tip was to help people out that were down on their luck, it was never meant to be a income. 21 dollars a hour plus tips for working a low end job is madness.
The minimum wage increase is just a tax hike, without saying they’re raising taxes. Yet you’ll never see the state legislature mention any thing about pision labor wages, that’s because slavery still legal under the constitution. Which allows them to pay pennies on the dollar, which intern they used to use prison labor as a way of subsidizing businesses, who are mostly government contractors who have a markup of 100 to 1000%, and contribute to a lot of politicians campaigns. That’s not to mention that most people who have been incarcerated leave with the ground $20-$40,000 in debt with all that tacked on expenses of being incarcerated.
SO WHO THINKS $20 AN HOUR IS ENOUGH TO PAY RENT IN THIS CITY? (SEATTLE, and most other cities and large towns in the US right now) IT IS 18OO + UTILITIES FOR A ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT. 40 HOURS IS $3200 BEFORE TAXES.=$2240 AFTER TAXES.=$440 remaining....PER MONTH AFTER YOU PAY RENT. PLEASE KEEP TIPPING, PEOPLE!!!
So you calculated one week, what about the rest of the month? I think you're broke because you can't do math correctly, unless you only work one week a month. In that case I don't think tipping is the problem.
@@DailyMeditation365 I didn’t misunderstand that only one week of wages were taken into account into the monthly equation. Let alone that $20/hr x 40 hours is $3600. I stand by my statement that it was represented incorrectly.
Other countries pay their employees enough in base salary. We are being asked to subsidize these workers wages. And then subsidize them again when they eventually end up qualifying for public benefits despite working full-time.
No, you are not being asked to subsidize… Restaurants left it in customer and employee, hands, and for me… It always worked out wonderfully. If servers are working a job with such low wages, they qualify for welfare, they are either working in a really slow, cheap, “should be run out of business” establishment, or they are lying in their tip reporting. And that happens a lot.
You’re not gonna be making nothing because nobody can afford it now. So what’s a drink gonna cost on top of the minimum wage? Obviously businesses are going to pass that down. So Mr. bartender makes 20 and my drink is 25??? Get what you voted for.
CUSTOMERS DON'T DESERVE TO BE MISTREATED FOR TIPPING. GO AFTER THE PEOPLE AT THE TOP UNDERPAYING WORKERS. STOP GIVING MONEY TO PLASTIC CELEBS LIKE KYLIE.
Seriously, what is it with servers/food delivery drivers thinking they're threatening someone by saying "if you don't tip, make your own food at home??? It's the funniest thing ever 😂 First off, no, people will keep dining out. Second off, if enough people DID cook at home, many of you dorks would be out of a job altogether. Idk why people make threats or sassy demands as if they won't backfire. Just like that delivery chick that recently sliced up a customer because of a low tip, craziness goes ways, guys 🤷♀️ It won't just be the delivery people losing their minds and seeking revenge, it'll be the customers, too.
No, no, & here's a tip in the form of a question: How about multiple professionals in the USA improve their quality of work to a higher level so that they match it with their higher pay? Oh no because that would require their matching the words "higher" quality with "higher" pay, which isn't a value among them. 👍 to this video! 😄
OK, ask these questions instead: Did rents decrease? Did food prices relax? Is the Puget Sound one of the most cheaper regions to live in the country? Since all those answers are 'no', that should answer your question about tipping. I've spent most of my working life in the restaurant/bar industry. There is a word for people who don't tip. That word isn't flattering. Until you the customer are willing to pay a price for your meal /service that includes a living wage, this is the way it is. You can deal with it or make your own damned dinner. You choose.
Do you tip the guy that bags your groceries? You mailman? Your Amazon driver? Your fast food workers? Etc etc? No? Huh very selective with your empathy.
@@Nayr747 Yes I tip the bagger. No, I don't tip the mailman, they have a union gig anyway. If there is a tip jar on the counter anywhere I eat, yes, I tip. As for the Amazon driver, they don't even knock on the door anymore.
I will always tip regardless it's so hard to be a server. You have no idea what could be going on with them and so many things have been thrown at them every day. if you're doing well and you're having a decent good day, why not tip to make somebody else feel that much better.

No, no, & here's a tip in the form of a question: How about multiple professionals in the USA improve their quality of work to a higher level so that they match it with their higher pay? Oh no because that would require their matching the words "higher" quality with "higher" pay, which isn't a value among them. 👍 to this video! 😄
End tipping! This is their jobs and most positions in Washington are getting paid more than minimum wage these days.
OK, ask these questions instead:
Did rents decrease? Did food prices relax? Is the Puget Sound one of the most cheaper regions to live in the country?
Since all those answers are 'no', that should answer your question about tipping. I've spent most of my working life in the restaurant/bar industry. There is a word for people who don't tip. That word isn't flattering.
Until you the customer are willing to pay a price for your meal /service that includes a living wage, this is the way it is. You can deal with it or make your own damned dinner. You choose.
Do you tip the guy that bags your groceries? You mailman? Your Amazon driver? Your fast food workers? Etc etc? No? Huh very selective with your empathy.
@@Nayr747 Yes I tip the bagger. No, I don't tip the mailman, they have a union gig anyway. If there is a tip jar on the counter anywhere I eat, yes, I tip.
As for the Amazon driver, they don't even knock on the door anymore.
Tip of this…
I will always tip regardless it's so hard to be a server. You have no idea what could be going on with them and so many things have been thrown at them every day. if you're doing well and you're having a decent good day, why not tip to make somebody else feel that much better.
Why not tip all the other minimum wage workers that you interact with?
That's makes no sense... you never know what ANYONE else is going through... by ypur logic you should tip everyone lol
@@Jeremy9697 no, you're right lol not everyone should be tipped. I probably should've put more thought into it when I was typing.
I NEVER TIP AND NEVER WILL.
