That's a really bad argument. There are lot's of places in america that intentionally go for cheaper locals, buildings and business models because they're low on capital or poor. Then they put a shitload of effort into their business at their own expense to build a name. Since we have a small trace of individuality in this country, we tip these people to encourage their contribution to our culture at the expense of their time and profits so the country isn't taken over by wal-mart.

Basically for coming from a country trying hard to be diverse and intellectually superior, you gave this very little thought and it reflects poorly on you.

A lot of wealthy Swiss people come to Dubrovnik, and the general opinion is that they are very cheap and do not tip. I can confirm based on my opinion.
Usually the best tippers are people from poorfag countries, like Bosnia, Serbia etc..

Euroscum, if you come over here you better fucking tip.

Most service workers are not paid a living wage, they make that through tips which incentives them to give good service. It's our system and it works well for us.

Things typically cost less here than in Europe and when it's all said and done, food/service + tip you're 90% of the time paying less than what you would in Europe. Don't be penny pinching little jews.

>> No.9590682

Unfortunately, theres a little thing called tip credits in America. The law dictates that employers can factor tips in to hourly wages. For example, the federal limit on that is $2.13/hr, so thats the wage an employer can pay plus whatever they make in tips. So, for example a dennys waiter gets paid (in some states) $2.13+tips, so say they get tipped $10 per hour theyre making technically 12.13$/hr. However if they dont get tipped at all for that hour, they only end up making 2.13$/hr. It varies from state to state and some states outlaw any kind of tip credits such as California. Also, whenever you tip someone that person doesnt get the money directly... That depends on store policy if it goes in to tip pools in which they have to share it with other workers such as chef, bus boy, etc. for more information on tip credits and service based industry,and a listing of restaurants that "do good" by their employees, google search "ROCUNITED" http://rocunited.org/dinersguide/
