Im having beers at bar ordered wings and tipped $2 everything the bartender brings me.

Beer = $6

tip for beer $2

wings = $20ish

Tip for wings from bartender = $2

Total tips = $4

==============================

Same order from waitress/er = $26

Tip = $5.20

Now I know this is micro example but extrapolate this over several drinks with food and the difference swings the other way. The question remains tho, am I tipping correctly?

    There is no convincing them to change their behavior because it’s an emotional reaction they backfill with paper thin logical.

    These are people who, if given a position where they determined employees wages they would pay the bare minimum. The temporarily embarrassed millionaire mindset, class traitors, etc.

    If they were approaching this from a truly moral position they would boycot establishments where tipping is expected. Instead they freeload and feel entitled to a server paid the literal minimum wage.

      Exactly my thoughts. All this attitude does is punish a probably vulnerable person trying to make a decent living.

      You can seek out non tip places etc but to go to ones that are tip and just give a shitty tip… Ugh.
