If there's no waiter, who are you tipping?

I wish I had a job society deemed tip worthy.

This is the Pei Wei model and no one tips at PW.

Why would I tip? I don't expect and didn't ask to have my table cleaned, and my garbage disposed of after I eat. I am willing to do that myself. It's their responsibility to give me the food I bought and keep their facility clean, otherwise no one would eat there. I don't tip Popeyes workers so why would I tip these guys.

So you feel you can hold that table and not let somebody else sit who could potentially tip?

Yes, as a paying customer I feel like I can sit at a table and eat

No tip.

Whataburger does the same thing. Do you tip at Whataburger?

I think 10%-15% is reasonable


That's generous for counter service, IMO.


Tipping has gotten crazy.

Same as pick up. I leave a dollar or two if they have a line on the receipt. Nothing if they don't because I typically don't carry cash.

So just because they have a line you tip? I bet the Asians love you. You're their favorite customer

How do you "overtip"? There is no minimum or maximum to how much a person can tip.

If the woman behind the counter was hot I'd give her just the tip, and maybe leave a dollar on the table.

Meaning that he errs on the side of leaving more than is expected.

It's a common term and understood by most.
