restaurant/buffet tipping?

[SochBAT]

You know a tip isn't required, right?

Its something that we, the customer, give you EXTRA.

If your service was exceptionally well, we'll tell you "Hey, good job. Thanks for the service." TIP. If your shit is whack, thats it.

Did you know in a vast majority of asian cultures it's rude to tip? Not slap in the face rude, more like spit in the face, shit on the table rude.

you do realize that we as waiters get taxed 8% whether u tip or not. if a tip was really jsut extra than we shouldnt get taxed on them. but the govt assumes we are getting tipped and they tax us for it. just some food for thought. shit, if waiters didnt get taxed on their tips, serving jobs would be some of the best jobs.... ever.

ACTUALLY, you are 100% wrong. Waiters do not have to be paid minimum wage, and most don't for that matter. Tips bring their wages up to minimum wage, and it's the customer's responsibility to pay for the service. Now, it's understandable that you will not pay for service that was not worth paying for, but dont act like the only time you should ever tip is when the service is above average.

BTW, in case you havent noticed, we're not in asia. WELCOME TO AMERICA.
