re: Tipping requests are out of control

The ignorance of you thinking that a QR code is someone begging for your tip as soon as you walk in your room. Ignore it if nothing deserved a tp. Or if by the end of your stay you were happy with the service, leave a tip. It's pretty simply, you just sound like a puss. Everyone hates tip culture, but this is about as easy to ignore as any tipping situation that has ever existed.
People who type from the safety of their own homes and with the cover of anonymity that people sound like a puss are in fact pussies.

What are you bitching about. I didn’t tip but I’m tired of the tip culture.
What are you bitching about? No one made you read this thread or comment on it. Quit being a bitch. Am I doing it right?

Tipping is an American thing.
Other countries’ visitors do not get it. I (American) do not either. In most places, staff costs are covered by the company providing the service.
Out of control.

Or drop a deuce in the middle of the bed and apply the appropriate tip. My recommendation for this is a $2 tip

Tipping
I got some club work done at a local pro shop and they flipped the screen around to ask for a tip... bruh WTF?
I'm swinging hard the other way now. 18% only if I sit down for a meal, and the service better be impeccable.

Why blame the workers? This enables the owners to pay them less and make more profits. Offloading expenses onto customers.

So are they paying hotel workers like they pay wait staff now and they now rely on tips for most of their salary?
If not - I see no need to change the way it's been done my whole life.

Tip when you check out, after some maid has wiped your piss off the toilet seat.

20-25-30% suggestions. America lost the plot.
That's really my biggest gripe. Sure, I can't stand that every place where you serve yourself now expects a tip. I have no issue leaving $0 if I don't have any sort of service.
The percentages have gotten out of hand. In the early 2000's, I waited tables while in school. Was like chain restaurants, so admittedly nothing fancy. I vividly remember 15% being considered normal. Then it pushes to 18%. Now many places have 20% as the minimum option. It's getting absurd.

15% is the standard for me still. 20% if outstanding service.
Posted on 3/17/26 at 8:35 am to DonJuanDaMiles
I leave $5 for the maid when I check out.

Brought my kids to a self-serve frozen yogurt place this past weekend. You serve yourself, toppings and everything, weigh it yourself, then check out yourself, and the tablet suggested 25% tip.
That's just the norm these days. It's wild.
They got nothing.

Taxes and parking turn a $250 a night stay into $400
I had over 100 nights in Hilton hotels last year and didn’t leave a single tip

Your client or your company paid. What's that got to do with your broke arse not leaving less than the cost of a beer at the bar for someone to strip your sheets and clean your toilet?

Several years ago I was at a Loews in Philadelphia for meetings. I got a call one morning at breakfast that our company network was down, so I hustled back to my room to try to log in and figure out what was going on.
Not long after, the cleaning lady knocked on the door, and I asked her if she could come back later as I was dealing with a work issue. She said fine, no worries.
Got the issue figured out and resolved and went back to my meetings. Got back upstairs around 5pm and she had cleaned my room and left me a bottle of water, a package of pretzels and a nice little note tell me she "hoped the rest of my day got better". I still have the note.
I found that to be very sweet and she did get a nice tip when I checked out.
