Business owners are trying to avoid raises and improve retention by pushing it onto the customer.
I don’t blame the cashier for the tip prompt. Most I’ve come across seem to be embarrassed by it.

$1.28 an hour in tips, on average, down 7% from the $1.38 an hour they made a year prior
I hate the way they manipulate statistics like this to create headlines and no one reads the story much less checks the statistics we all just read the headline and start debating

Will we have to tip robots when they start serving us?

Man up. When they flip that ipad around with the 18-20-22% tip choice, Whack that "No tip" spot and don't even blink.

I tipped my server 100 bucks on 54 bucks worth of pizza the other night.
She wasnt a great server, but she made my son laugh and it's christmas.

Jokes on them, I've just become a better cook and maybe go out 30% of what I did pre-covid. Service is absolute dog shite in most places, even nicer joints, and at this point I'm willing to put my food against anywhere charging less than 30 dollars a plate.

I hate it so much. I ordered a pizza on an App the other day and it asked for a tip. I certainly don’t feel obligated but I get paranoid that they’ll do something to my food if I don’t do at least a little. People who have alone time with my food and a grudge for being stiffed are a scary combination. So I’m forced to comply.

I would absolutely support federal law removing the minimum wage exemption and prohibiting the requesting of tips on receipts and point-of-sale devices.

It was interesting, in Colombia (come at me, nurse). There was a 10% voluntary gratuity on every check. You could decline, accept or offer more. They never took your card, just brought the card swiper over. 10% seemed to be expected, but you could decline. The service was outstanding. The servers were en pointe. You do have to wave them over, once you are done. It seems they don't want to bother you.

I’m not a fan for the opposite reason. I almost always tip 20% and when ‘above and beyond’, like to recognize that. The requests often cap off at 20% and it’s a pain to customize and submit a larger tip.

There’s a bunch of things that Europe gets right, no tipping and including taxes in the total are two of them.

Tipped $7 last night instead of the usual $10.
It was 23% of the bill tho so hard for the bartender to complain

I tip servers, valets, etc. I don’t tip you for taking my order at the counter and I serve myself.

I went to an alamo drafthouse and saw a movie this week. They had signs about mandatory 18% tips, which is fine. I always do 20%. I’ll up it if needed.
I had a $16 meal and then 2 beers over a 2 hour movie. Beers didn’t have a price ( I asked but he said I’ll check, and then just brought the beer anyways) but i I figured 8-10. Got back a $58 bill with the gratuity added.
Wtf.

Do a good job and get a tip . Simple

People are cutting back on tipping, frustrated by ubiquitous requests for gratuities
As prices of everything continue to rise, while the consumer's income stays the same, tips will continue to decrease. Was this not expected???

It’s always fun when we get business visitors in from Europe or Asia for the first time and we have to try to explain this s**t.

Its another way to spread out that middle class cash
Posted on 12/18/23 at 8:31 am to euphemus
I saw a new one at a restaurant in Dallas. 18% was added for any party starting at a party of 4. I've see that be common place for a party of 8 and occassionally 6.
On the bill, it had a line for an addtional tip.
