    Do you tip?
    Restaurant, bar, barber shop, waiter, waitress, whatever. Do you tip?

    The question is more on the principle of tipping, not so much on whether or not you tip in certain situations (ie. good vs. bad service).

    This scene from Reservoir Dogs is very much related.

                    I only tip when I am being served for example: I am at a table and the waiter takes my order and brings my food, brings me water.

                    But if are working at mcdonlads, hell no I will not tip you. Its funny how they have those tips jars.

                        I believe they only make a couple of dollars an hour. Bad service to me is just not caring, depends how busy they are but under no circumstance (unless they argue with me or tell me to go fukc myself) would I stiff them.

                                    Always tip. At least 20%, sometimes more if the service is good.

                                                Guys who don't tip = scumbags

                                                Waitresses minimum wage is just over two bucks an hour....sure that's not your problem but if you don't have compassion for someone who basically works a miserable job then yes, you're a scumbag.

                                                  Never less then 18% if the service is good, sometimes more.

                                                          If the service is bad .. they get a dollar (enough to let them know that I did not "just forget" .. I actually was aware enough to leave a tip .. and thought that your effort was worth this amount)

                                                          Generally I start @ 25% for excellent service and work my way down by 5% each time they piss me off, let my glass get empty, don't check on me shortly after I've started eating, offer me a "to-go" drink, look like they are struggling to raise a smile .. etc etc ..

                                                              If you live in the USA and don't tip, you are a moron.
