We should move to a system like Europe where you can round up to the next dollar if your bartender was taking care of you.


Have to convince restaurants to start paying their staffs a fair wage first.

Let’s call it toxic tipping culture and get rid of it once and for all.

Tipping is an American thing. Nothing like it in most other places in world.
Only because not paying servers a normal wage is also an American thing.

Change the fricking law that servers get regular wages like every other damn job. Tipping is fricking stupid for lots of reasons. Elon needs to get the damn robot servers built asap.

(Good. Tipping when just drinking should be minimal anyway.)

Agreed that tipping culture has gotten ridiculous, but...tipping at a restaurant or bar isn't a part of the knew phenomenon. If you sit your arse down to eat and or drink and you can't afford a decent tip, you should stay home. Including if your home isn't in the US.

Do you even know what amount your tip is based on or you just gladly toss 20+% regardless of service because it's not "knew" to US culture?
