that's the most fucked part of tipping is the expectation of 15-20+% based on how much you spend. as if the fact that i spend $200, you're entitled to $40 for less than an hour of "work"? you carried food to my table and refilled my drinks. ooooh! here's 15 bucks. fuck off and get a real job if you don't like it.

I don't mind tipping but the latest obnoxious thing is the credit-card terminals with the LCD displays that ask you to "select your tip" from a few percentage choices... and at one place, the choices STARTED at 20%. And you can't "just pay cash" anymore to avoid this awkwardness, because "legal tender for all debts public and private" has apparently become meaningless since Kung Flu dropped into town.

Restaurants are one of the most abusive, strenuous work environments on the planet. Most of the time you don't even get a lunch break and your boss yells at you for taking a piss.

tipping is a US institution because it was thought that black people couldn't get jobs or paid normally so we would tip them as it is our privilege to help freemen. noblesse oblige and all that. other countries didn't really have. there are some other things people do though like sinking that is usually to show off wealth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinking_(behavior)

How do you guys really tell? I mean sometimes it's obvious, but even the Nazi's generally had to like dig up records or shit. Same with other things. I worked with this MD and he was Egyptian (so he was shia or sunni, don't remember) and he confided in me that he won't take a patient who is the other sect, or if he is the only one available or has to because of laws, will do the absolute bare minimum required legally of him to not get sued for malpractice. I asked him how he could really tell, and he said sometimes you can tell by the name, Al-whatever, but he said that most of the time he could just walk in and immediately know. Still kinda bothers me because you can have people in the same town all over the ME be both, unless you know, genocide.

get this /pol/ tier shit out of here. Tipping culture exists in the US because prohibition cut into the profits of restaurants that served alcohol, so they shifted the cost of their servers onto the customer. And of fucking course it stayed because it was a million times cheaper for businesses. And it still exists today because servers make much more money getting tipped than they ever would getting paid. I used to work for a kitchen that literally didn't even pay their waiters and just let them keep whatever they got tipped.
