[QUOTE="mysticsvt, post: 16713871, member: 17917"] Rather generous myself and often buy other's meals. With that being said I am torn on tipping in the first place. I have family that are waitresses and spew FB with how cheap people are. "If you can't afford to tip amazingly don't eat out BS". If I had to stay home or take my family out guess what..you're SOL. IMO it is their fault for choosing their career field that allows their income to be dictated by strangers. Also, it is NOT my responsibly to compensate their wages because they picked this path to take care of their family. Now I fully sympathize with them in that they are caught up in the middle of this between the employer and the customer which is why I still tip nicely. To answer your question...I may at times tip 50% if I'm eating at say Waffle House and 10%-25% if I spend $400 at a fancy place. How much I tip is dictated by service and MY income. Did the fancy server work harder bringing me my food and filling my beverage than the less fancy? Our mindset has been changed from tipping to compensating and it's disgusting. [/QUOTE]
