    So I gave a Tip and was treated rude
    I was at a bar last night had a small tab of 4.25 (3 beers) Paid with a $5 bill

    And told they guy to keep the rest as a tip.

    75 cents for a 4.25 tab is a 17% tip.

    The guy told me no, gave me the 75 cents, and he was really rude about it.

    17% tip is alot right?

                            Not only is your grammar weak, but you're a cheap **** whose favorite beer tastes like urine

                            3 strikes you're out

                                      I don't think I've had a tab of $4.25 for anything since like 1989.

                                          I tip $1 per beer. I dont run up a tab, I pay for each beer as I get them and leave a dollar for the bartender each time I order another cold one.

                                              in a civilised society you don't tip at all and the employer pays the employee a proper wage to begin with

                                                  Thanks for the points, B1.

                                                  I do notice that those who tip for each beer get the bartender's attention the quickest whenever they go up to the bar to order another drink.

                                                      Most bartenders love nose candy, he probably was waiting for his connection and took his frustration out on you.

                                                        I'll always still tip $1 a drink - even when the beer is that cheap.

                                                          But....
                                                          The minimum tip on a tab is 10% right?

                                                          I am cheap I know that. I am a Cheap bastard.

                                                            I told this guy he had to leave $1 per beer in the other thread. He doesnt get it. Nobody cares what people tip in his poverty stricken country. Poor guy was telling people he was white and an engineer.

                                                                If you want to score chicks at the bar use this strategy. On your first drink at the bar pay with a $100 bill and leave the change as a tip. Make sure you are seen by as many females as possible while you do this. I can guarantee you will go home with a broad when the night is over.
