What kills me now is that you're supposed to tip before you even know if you're getting the food. Tip afterwards, that's the only logical use and barely ever happens anymore. You tip when you order now.
@@Natrium9775 that's been something known to happen if the place you order from doesn't put the food in a sealed up bag(like taped shit so you know if it was tampered with), and some drivers admitted to messing with the food in some way like putting it up against the vent in their car while blasting the AC to make the food cold if you didn't tip well enough. You can, however, adjust the tip after the food is received. I lived in a townhouse complex where the house numbers weren't all in order and drivers would get lost trying to find my house, so I put instructions in there telling them to turn onto the street after X house and then my unit was at the end, and the result was my drivers stopping at X house and just leaving my food there despite the number being completely wrong. So I'd remove the tip for the fact I had to leave my house to go to someone else's and pray they weren't home to see me taking the food off their porch.
gotta not waste ur money on grubhub, ubereats its killing the american wallet. it might be hard to cook/ feed urself if ur single but its well worth it i tell my buddy all the time. but yea the tip first stuff on those apps is like WUT
@@pk6546 yeah and then they turn a screen towards me and I press 0. Way better than writing 0 then writing the same total after the tip section. And it’s way better than handing them 0 extra dollars in cash.
Im hella frustrated with this too. On one side, I dont want to tip but on the other, I assume they'll make a shitty pizza if they know this dude didnt tip.
@@Yog_Los_Mas They do have a way to mark if someone tips bad or not at all. Its kinda crazy and bs... I got marked once even though I always tipped something.. My buddy told me when he was working a pizza place..
I avoid places that ask for tips (other than the traditional tips) simply because if I put down no tip I’ll have to worry what they did to my product out of spite
Don't tip at all. Force business owners to actually have to pay their employees. Stop forcing consumers to cover burdens millionaires have the money to resolve by paying workers more.
I don't think you not tipping your waiter or waitress is going to change a restaurants policy. You're just wrecking that person's ability to make money. Yes, tipping culture is out of control. Yes, some people live off tips. We'd need legislation to fix this not people stiffing the service industry.
I tip people that do more than they we're paid for, those that do extra good. And those that hit misfortune during their job but still try their best. Aside from that, I agree with you.
You’re supposed to tip for the quality of the service after-all, not just by default for no reason. Feels like larger breasts are two big reasons to tip
Honestly the thing is wait staff themselves don't want tipping to go away, there was a survey done in NYC and it was like 80% of wait staff in favor of keeping tipping because at a decent traffic restaurant waiters take home much MUCH more a day than a regular minimum wage worker
Some restaurant owners and wait staff don't want the exploiting customers of their money to go away if it benefits them. It seems like average people are ok with continuing to be exploited of their own money. It will continue until people stop tipping.
I’m an employer and had recently bought a pizza shop (despite my business having nothing to do with food and tipping never occurs) and immediately ran into problems with tipping. Some people would not tip at all, and then I had an employee realize you can adjust the percentages on the software, and tried to see if he could slip it past our customers. Employees would get into fights because the manager supposedly like the one and not the other, and would give her shifts when it was busy, on and on it went. It got to the point that I just removed tips altogether, adjusted wages up to compensate. Guess what? Nearly half my employees quit on the spot, despite the fact they were guaranteed a daily wage. They wanted to work 15-20 hour weeks during the busiest time and extract tips from customers, not work 30 hours and make the same pay. That’s why you’re seeing more aggressive tip begging and shaming. Employers want to keep prices down and let all the compensation battling happen between customers and employees while they stick their fingers in their ears. My employees now start at 14.50 an hour, and drivers who use their own vehicle get a per mile rate on top of it. That was about 9 months ago, and so far, has worked fairly well.
Yep, as I keep saying it is a tipping culture because the mindset is the one propelling the ridiculous expectations. The mindset in countries without the tipping culture or service charge like in Japan or even poor nations without the tipping culture is about just doing your job and not relying on tips. Servers earn more because of tips and that is why they prefer the tipping method of earning money compared to having the base pay. They serve not because they like to serve but because they know they can earn more. So for them, it is not about doing your job, and hopefully doing your job well.
I would suggest letting your workers accept cash tips if the customer insists, I feel bad when I get fast food and the service is good despite it being busy yet they refuse cash tips even though I know they are not paid well and im only offering small amounts normally under $3, because I work fast food and DO get tips and while I put a lot of effort I appreciate other businesses employees doing a good job under worse circumstances.
@@sadlife8495 So trash the jobs I work at I never ask for tips and sometimes customers try to tip me for helping load stuff into their car/truck. We get told 1-2 times a year taking tips = fired. I don't ask for the tips but if someone's driving a 60k car I'll take the handout lol
Australia has been poisoned by the tipping culture because American companies pay slave wages to immigrants here. On top of this ludicrous corrupt system if you pay more than 15 dollars tip to the driver through the app then Uber keeps the rest for themselves which I have no idea how it's legal. Most American corporations pay zero tax in Australia like Apple and Netflix. Online shopping websites asking for tips also. I will never tip in my life. Say no to this madness.
There's an ice cream place here in town where you get your own ice cream and put your own toppings on and they absolutely hate me cause whenever I go in there I never tip because the only thing the employee does is spin the tablet around when I go to pay and I always click 0% tip. You did actually nothing.
Fr, some of them just smile. Was i supposed to pay 5-25 dollars for a SMILE? Damn just don’t smile People who shove their mixtapes into your bag and demand money are less entitled than this
Tipping culture is wild to me. I'm European/German. We don't tip unless service is exceptional. Like genuinely amazing. And then it's maybe like 2€ or if you're rich 10€. Employers pay a living wage here so we don't need to make up for the greed of certain employers.
As another German: Service does not have to be out of this world to earn a tip. It has to be decent at least, but not spectacular. When everything is in fact superb, a usual tip would be 10% auf the total amount, 15% at the max. So if you tip 2 € on a 75 € bill you were either just satisfied with the experience or you are a skinflint.
In the Netherlands, the "drive the cost down by taking tips by the owners, to cover wages." Is illegal here. Its so easy to see that this gives the wrong insentive structures. I dont call that getting a tip, thats fulfilling my quota as a worker to not getting fired.
In New Zealand we have this strange tradition where we tip people that we like, or people that put the extra effort in. It has this strange effect, where the workers really appreciate it and the customers are able to do something nice out of their own free will. Kinda fkd up though of you ask me.
12:39 the minimum tip option on a digital screen is usually 15% you can't go lower unless you manually do so, which eats time you have away from the tipping screen
Pretty much this. I even met some people who straight out asked for a tip and I am not even American - what an insane set of mind, to see a tip as a given.
@@UnseenIncognito Often tips are included automatically on the bill called gratuity, they won't tell you about ti because they want you to tip ontop of it.
I’ve had workers at places with these tipping screens to tell me to just hit “no tip” or “skip” just like some do with the warranty option screen when it pops up. Like at a local restaurant and I go checkout after they already gave me my receipt to take to the front, they have outright told me “the option is on the receipt, don’t fool with that if you already did it or don’t want to do it, skip that” along with Subway workers telling me to hit the “no tip” screen. Don’t ever feel guilt for not tipping. That guilt should be placed on employers for not paying their workers enough in the first place. The only way to change it is to stop giving in and lining the boss’s pockets even more.
I actually have a nice proper grey wool fedora (proper fedora, not a small memeable trillby) and I never wear it enough. I'll have to remember this and use it more often. lol
For a few years now, I live in a European country that doesn't have mandatory tipping culture. You can tip if you want, but it's not expected from you. Now, I rarely go out, but this difference in tipping culture is precisely what makes me want to tip when I had a great time and feel like it. If I had a great evening - I can unironically make some waiter's evening better by leaving a 10% tip. Left 20% tip once, when me and my wife had a particularly great and memorable evening at one restaurant - to this day I remember how the waiter lightened up once he realised it. He smiled all the way to the door while he was accompanying us to the exit, and shook my hand several times. Or the last time we went out: once it came to paying the bill, I asked whether I could add a tip - and the server lady said "sure", added *less than 4%* to the bill and asked if that would be too much. Seemed really happy when we said it's perfectly fine. Meanwhile, it almost seems like if you left a 4% tip in the US, at least in some places the waiters would spit in your face and curse your entire family.
This is what I've seen from people in other countries and that is how it should be. A tip should not be expected and if you get one it means something other than just someone doing their job.
@@drachenaura yes there is lol. Sure, nobody's going to point a gun at you and make you pay a tip, but if you don't leave a tip in the US, you're gonna be judged by everyone. Russians and Russian-speaking post-soviets have an ironic name for such things that translates into "voluntary-mandatory". It's reserved for things like this: it's kinda voluntary, but if you decide not to do it - you're gonna at best be judged for it, at worst face some unwanted concequences. Also, que the intro scene from Reservoir Dogs, where everyone dogpiled on Mr. Pink because he said he doesn't tip, to the point where he caved and paved the tip like everyone else.
@@drachenauratell that to my suitcases held hostage by a taxi driver in New York until i tipped him. Or the risk you run of having people straight up spit in your food if they know you aren’t a tipper or it’s the kind of place where you pay (and tip) before even getting your food. Tipping is mandatory in America to get minimum quality service (and not spit in your food).
@@malirk If me coming to spend my money there isnt enough to warrant good service, they dont deserve my tip. PS. I live in a country where even people in the service industry has tariffs to secure them a living wage.
Ordered Domino's last week for the first time. When the delivery guy got here he passed me the receipt and asked me to cross out the zeros. I handed it back to him and he said "So no tip today huh?" I literally had a 5 dollar bill in my pocket ready to give to him but because he said such a ludicrous statement I responded with "Nah not today". His entire attitude and demeanor immediately changed as he left. Safe to say thats first and last time I will ever order from there. These people are getiing bolder and more entitled.
you should have shown him the money and told him why, he would have been extra sad cuz he would have known it was his fault, maybe he'd lose his attitude
Sounds like you didn’t want to tip in the first place which is fine. I don’t think tips should be mandatory. I hated when I would pick up my dominos from the restaurant and they would want me to tip. All they did was hand me my pizza from the oven especially since I paid online beforehand.
I just trained myself to not tip when I feel that the situation doesn't warrant it (takeout, or when I'm given poor service at a restaurant). I'm not going to just stop going out to eat lol.
Even more so when you discover the rest of the world doesn't actually do this and actually pays all their employees and fair and living wage like what businesses SHOULD be doing!
Cooking really is a valuable skill in this day and age, saving a lot of money for average revenues. And if you have time to watch YT, you have time to cook. I do it while watching/listening to something, and it's fun.
They never mentioned that I bet if you asked 100 servers they would prefer the tipping method on average. It’s not a detriment to the employee but to the consumer.
The girls at Dunken Donuts taped a “tip” cup to the drive through window. Why would I just GIVE you extra money, for handing me the beverage I paid for…? Restaurants trying to get a 20-30% tip from their customers is fucking crazy. I’ve CHOSEN to come to your restaurant, out of all places nearby to eat. Then you try to fleece me for 30% or the entire meal cost? Absolutely not.
They raise the prices of Food, but they don't raise the pay for employees, so they expect us to pay up to 25% more money for a meal that has already had a price increase.
The fact most foods cost nearly 100% more now than they used to 3-4 years ago, but other items cost exactly the same is all you need to know about corporate greed.
Why would the delivery fee go to the driver at all? That's how it's supposed to be lol you are working for an organisation that offers the delivery service and charges for it. You are only owed your own salary. You are not providing the delivery as a service yourself, you are an employee of the delivery service provider.
@@undenythe thing is have you been a delivery driver. You don't get a salary. You get paid for every delivery you make. Regardless if it is far or close by. It is always the same amount and if you are in a poor area you are not getting anymore then the delivery. Unless you maybe drive for the app delivery ones. A pizza place won't pay the delivery boy because they are getting paid two dollars for each delivery. Using your own car. Messing up your own breaks. Having to wait for multiple order IF possible so you are not wasting gas. And if the customer wants their money back. You lost that hour of pay because you took that delivery. Some deliveries take an hour to do some half. You never know how the traffic is going to be. If there is a train stopped the track right on the other side of where you have to be and there is no going around because it would take longer to do so.
I stopped going to get my haircut, because the price went up 40% and they started asking for a tip on top of that. And I don't have a complex hairstyle, just basically buzzing. Takes me 20 minutes at home, I've gotten pretty good at it. I dont go to places that ask for a tip for basic work anymore either. Papa Murphys asks for a tip for making your pizza online. Its literally their only thing they do. Its just ridiculous. I haven't even seen the pizza yet, or eaten it. How the hell do I know if you even deserved the tip?
I've been doing that for 25 years. I'm on my 2nd Wahl. The first one died 8 years ago. The current model needs its blades sharpened. It should probably last 8 more years. I'd hate to see what they cost now. Almost $100 in 2016.
Bruh I got my first haircut from a legit barber like 2-3 years ago and paid $35 plus whatever tip for haircut AND beard. I still go to that same barber today and he’s done an awesome job every time but now he charges $50 for haircut, $60 for haircut and beard and the min tip on the website is 15% it’s killing me 😫 thankfully he’s cool with me and doesn’t really care bout the tip lol. The barbershop I go to has seriously blown up in popularity in my town and has opened new locations so it was just a matter of time I guess. The business has really flourished since I first went there.
@@Radbiker33357 60 dollars for 30 minutes of work is insane. Service jobs have just got out of control, dudes acting like he's a plumber or electrician with those rates.
Yes, AMEN!! Been doing that for a lil' while now. Lol takes me only 5 and my haircut is usually the classic short on sides, long on top. Other times it's the 'Howzer cut.' Google 'Captain Howzer' and you'll see what I mean. I still manage to keep it all at 5 or under. Sometimes 8-9 mins at the longest. Keep up, bud!! Hehe
as an asian. i had no problem giving bare minimum tipping for required, dining in. and i have no problem clicking no tip or even giving donation or any sort to anything else now.
“It also motivates the server to do well”. Tips in America don’t do that as they are expected by default. Pushed servers to shame customers instead. Now, in Europe, that’s a different story since tips aren’t expected they can give good service and get a tip… you know, get a tip for giving a good service and not because you don’t want them to spit in your food.
I had a delivery company deliver some massive speakers, >500 pounds each, and I tipped the guys (they were big dudes) $100 each to bring them in the house, help me unpack them, and then move the speakers into place. That was 100% worth it. A tip for delivering an office chair, even if the guy brings it into the house? F--k that.
There's a difference in my mind between paying them for extra service that they're not required to provide (especially when it'd be difficult if at all possible to do yourself like in your situation), and paying them extra JUST to do their job. Lots of people that want tips are JUST doing their job. Or sometimes will shirk on it and still feel they should be given it and whine when they aren't.
The fact that tip counts as an employer paying part of your wage is so messed up. In the normal part of the world, it's counted as a performance bonus.
You do realize the extra money goes to hiring more staff right? This was literally a law created during the great depression which was so beneficial to literally everyone from the employee, the employer, and the customer that it still exists today with little to no changes. Not a single tipped employee is crying about this. Go read one of the top comments from an employer complaining that all his staff members quit when he replaced tipping with a higher wage. Tipped employees make ~3x (often more) working significantly less hours.
@@ironclad-m3q No one is getting underpaid. Tipped employees are on average making 3x minimum wage with half the hours worked. You do realize the very thing you want exists in big chains like the Olive Garden and guess what? They split tips among all staff or do tip cut-offs. Employees make significantly less money
@@ironclad-m3q The utter ignorance to dismiss the reduction of unemployment as a bad business model. Either way the customer is the one providing a salary, and the employee walks home with at least minimum wage. The difference is 1x employee for $7/h or 3.5x employees for $2/h. There is a reason the tipping law was created during the great depression bozo.
I’ve only ever tipped my waiters/waitresses, food delivery drivers, or my barbers. That’s it and I only tip 10%. I’m not tipping anyone else or anymore than 10%. I find it insulting when these tip screens start at 15%, that’s a very large percentage of the purchase. I’d rather they automate your job and get rid of you before I pay more than a 10% tip. If you have an issue with the 10% tip or give me bad service I can just not tip you and take my money elsewhere. Your job won’t last long if you chase customers away over tip amounts.
If people felt less inclined to tip this would sort itself out overnight. Your not giving these companies your money. Your giving them your time. That paper money is a representation of the time you spent having to get it. If you earn 20 bucks an hour and you tip a 20 you literally just gave that company an hour of your life when they should be paying their own workers a living wage.
"I don't tip" "But I depend on tips, as the wage my employer pays me doesn't cover my costs" "That sounds like a problem between you and your employer. I agree it sucks, and it sounds like it should be illegal. I would support you if you contact your local politicians with the intention of changing that practice...... but what I won't do is bow to the pressure that wants to put the responsibility of covering those wages onto the customer. Don't put me between you and the person who is refusing to pay you a living wage."
As someone from Australia, it seems ridiculous. I actually get the argument about not getting a living wage, but the problem is tipping is a terrible solution to that, as it's so unequally applied. Some servers make more than an engineer or a lawyer (for a low skilled job a chimpanzee could practically do) and others make no tips at all - fast food workers, for example.
most fast food workers don't make federal minimum they make the state minimum, which on the average in US is 12. Only 21 states have a min of 7.25. Fast food workers arent a tipped job, wheras a waiter/bartender is
If I try to haggle a dollar off of the $5 coffee when ordering, oooh *_then_* the price becomes extremely straightforward. _"Im sorry sir the coffee is $5 its not a negotiation its just $5."_ Fair enough, the coffee is $5.00. Ok now lets pay for it. *_"Would you like to pay $5.75, $6.00, $6.25, or $6.50?"_*
It is not only "social pressure". In the past, tips were asked after the service was compelted, so to some extent it was "thank you" to the personnel. Now, it is asked before the service starts and whoever provides the service knows if you tipped and how much you tipped to them. If you don't you get much shittier service. Happened multiple times to me when I forgot to select tip in delivery: most times the order suddenly took at least twice the time it takes with a tip, and when arrived the delivery person claimed they could not contact me and I had to resolve it through support; by pure coincidence it never happened when I tipped max default tip.
@randybobandy9828 you're right. In the middle ages it was used by rich to reward extra effort. Later it was used by coffee houses to insure promptness. Now it's used as a tax on the stupid.
I have a friend that has only worked as waiter since high school. He started working at Buffalo Wild Wings and now, at 40 years old, works at 2 different high end steak houses and he make 400-500 bucks a day in tips and only works 4 or 5 hours a day.
Those high end waitstaff really do an amazing job being personable, remembering things, and creating an experience. I usually give them at least 30%, always in cash. It took them a lot of time and effort to be successful in those roles, it’s difficult work, but they really make dining an experience and not just food brought to you. They earned every penny IMO
i know this tipping option for online like food deliveries. asked the driver every time and he said: didn't see any of the money on his paycheck so i stopped and gave it to him directly
@@chexmixkittyI quit Uber Eats delivery bc I don’t think they’re paying the drivers what I actually tipped. The more I see on Uber the more it’s astonishing how evil they are.
This is the way. Here in the UK we pay a minimum wage for all jobs. But I always give the delivery driver a couple of pounds in cash or a £5 note. They're over the moon because it's actually a bonus, and not something to make up an amount they deserve to be paid. Always tip in cash if you can.
The culture constantly asking you if you wanna tip makes me not want to tip, just like RUclipsr asking you to subscribe and like, seriously… where is everyone’s dignity? It’s embarrassing
Yea, I got so tired of tipping, and I remember the first times I ever tipped or was with friend or family, what I heard about tipping was cause, "It's nice to do so" and other excuses, but I never grew up knowing it was an option or what tipping even was. And after hearing about some people throwing tantrums for not getting tips like this one dominoes clip or like, several restaurants/dominoes where people have terribly written curse words or got upset in person and tried teaching me that I should tip more, I started getting fed up. Thank you for this video! As of started last year, I tipped way less, and after this vid, I'm not tipping at all, unless I just want to. Not my fault the company doesn't pay them enough or at all. I never get tips at my job after all. They need to get better jobs. Either that, or companies need to make it where you have to tip, and no option to put $0. But well all know what would happen if people didn't have the option to not tip, pffff
I would hate to live in America. I would never be able to trust ordering at the same place twice because i'm not paying these people extra for the bare minimum of doing the job they got hired for.
US is great to visit, as the nature alone is worth seeing there, but I could also not be able to live there. Too many things that we take for granted in EU is not present there
i only tip like 1-5% of all my orders, because i refuse to tip by default just because they get paid shit, if people stop tipping at a whole, the employees will just look for other jobs because it wont pay enough anymore, forcing them to pay higher, which solves the problem, but everyone too bussy with guilt feelings, the owners should just pay more, plain simple
I *always* tell people I deliver to : "If you don't want to tip, just hit the skip button". I never expect a tip. Yeah, a tip is nice. But that's why I do deliveries as a side job.
@@lovathon6365it’s not really entitlement, mostly just people hoping to make extra money they probably need. If they complain about the tip amount, then it’d be entitlement.
Funny you mention the garbage driver thing, at the end.. Because I actually have been outside a couple times and seeing those workers, who work hard, and have offered drinks and a tip, on quite a few occasions. I agree fully that some of the 'jobs' people take for granted and don't actually get tips nor the ability to even have a screen to ask for such tips are the ones out there working hard/tirelessly, every day. Cheers!
Online tipping feels like a form of begging. If it's in person I understand I might have got some service from them and based on how the service was I should tip which is again not necessary. Everyone should be paid living wages and not be at the mercy of the customer.
A lot of the times too the tip is just added on as a service charge of some percentile, usually 18% where im at, and they might put a sign up in in a dark corner that says "service charge included", but they're praying you don't see the sign, read the bill and see the service charge, because they're going to ask you for another tip.
I don’t care if people think I’m a miser. NEVER TIP. We have to get rid of these stupid subsidies for exploitative employers. Literally among the only countries that does this.
@@gittogud There is no way to fight for your wage. Employees can be terminated without cause in most states and have little to no rights. It is a capitalist country the employer will take advantage of the laws to exploit people unless laws are changed.
I'm from Australia. I've been in Las Vegas for 3 days and the tipping is out of control. Everything is already so expensive and every person wants a tip for doing the bare minimum. Rise up Americans and stop this madness! Pay everyone a fair wage and do away with this tipping culture.
Anecdotal experience, but I have never met someone personally who works on tipped wages that don't make significant bank. I've lived in tiny counties of 12k people and bigger cities and have never had a friend that doesn't walk away with, on average, $90 a night on a slow day. Almost all cash, that none of them claim, so it's not taxed. Every time I've talked to them about getting rid of tipping altogether and being paid a flat wage, I've been met with push back from my friends because they say they would be making less on a significantly higher flat wage. I understand that there are exceptions to this, just my experience. Tipping culture needs to be abolished, and everyone needs to be making a decent wage based on the need of the job, work ethic, and skill set it requires.
DING DING DING - we have a winner- Ask any Tipped Employee that we are supposed to feel bad for making $2.15 an hour if they want to make the minimum wage and sweat like a hog washing dishes in the muck and slop I promise you its like 99.9999999% of those servers would never want to stand next to a 700 degree pizza oven and do some work- rather rake in tips and occasionally get "stiffed" rather than get stiffed by their position at the restaurant nightly .
One of my hubbs and I's favorite brewhouse/restaurants started using the digital menu ordering for food. The wait staff only came by to get drinks and bring out food. It started to feel not very personable, so we just go there once or twice a year. When we did go, we only leave a good tip if the waiter or waitress actually pays attention to us.
Luckily living in Europe I "need" to only tip at places I frequent or places that go above and beyond, because 0% tip is taken here as "the service was acceptable"
@@mellowstrangler That's why I put it into quotation marks. It's not really a need like in the USA but if you have the place you visit frequently and they go above and beyond, then it's like "thanks for being awesome" tip rather than "thanks for doing your basic job description". I have couple of places where I tip generously mainly because I got to know staff over time in fairly friendly manner.
No tipping in Europe, advanced countries. Instead, franchises and owners have to actually pay workers a living wage. And the food prices are no higher than the US. So basically Americans are just paying wages to wait staff that the companies should be paying in the first place.
Every time I watch videos on tipping in USA, I literally don't get it. Some weirdos support tipping culture saying that employees work under the minimum wage. But should customers take care of it? They have no obligations..? It is the business owner's fault. The owner is supposed to take care of it. I literally don't get why some people can't understand this simple logic.
Something happened in the 2010s that threw the model completely off. As gen-x, it used to be a single mom could waitress and afford rent and her child. A bartender could pay their way through college on tips. It was a system that actually worked for everyone and wasn’t obtrusive or obnoxious. Somewhere it went from normal, to begging, to demanding and that’s just got everyone’s feathers ruffled. It’s not working properly anymore.
@@johnmaurer3097 Inflation, poor quality products and things just getting too expensive. A lot of industries are just losing customers because it's too expensive and the stuff that used to be good years ago just aren't. It's all cheap crap now meant to maximize profits and provide a "good enough" service or product. Not to mention just a shaky economy in general. We're slowly approaching 2008 again and nobody learns a damn thing.
It is a canard as well. It is illegal for anyone to make less than the min wage in America. As you said, the business owner is just attempting to raise prices while pretending they aren't.
I was getting paid $10 per hour before I got promoted to $13 per hour and my employer said when I got hired that I’m getting paid $10 per hour because the tips equal out to 13 per hour😐
Don't forget that thoses are the companies that sells you a glass of coca cola for twice the price of the bottle, trying to pay their employee for lesser than a glass of coca cola
I NEVER tip when I pick food up. If I'm eating at a restaurant I only tip 10 dollars regardless of the price. I also don't go to expensive restaurants, I don't use rideshare stuff and even if I did wouldn't tip drivers. Do you tip taxes? No you payt for what they ask
Servers making $2.13 an hour only get paid through tips. That joke hourly wage gets consumed by taxes. I worked for decades in the full service restaurant industry, and 99% of my "paychecks" were $0.00. Then I had to pay more tax at the end if the year!
And we need to protest that you get a FAIR minimum. Servers should be paid at $15. The bullshit you have put up with is mindblowing. Servers work hard.
Yeah, it's bad here. We have the same minimum wage laws as the EU, but because of our proximity to the US, we still get slammed with the same disgusting tipping practices employed south of the border. Just means I feel less bad hitting "no tip".
To be honest tho the minimum wage in America is 30 dollars below the minimum living threshold. In order to afford basic amenities, a home, a car, insurance ect you need to make 32-37 an hour at 40 hours a week in this America. The minimum wage is 7.25 tho. I look forward to the inevitable demise of humanity.
It’s because Canada is so intwines with the US both culturally and economically that tipping culture gets translated over even when it isn’t applicable
my local market does that too! they even fired their cashiers except for one lmao. forcing almost everyone to self check out. checking yourself out can be a hassle too when you have over 300 dollars worth of cart. IT IS EASY for soemone who is not a trained cashier to accidentally miss some items..... specially when its busy and you got people breathing on your neck. I dont cashier everyday so sometimes i forget to scan the 24 pack sprites and 12 whiteclaws pack and 36 water pack, im just trying my best you know. and the best part, if you do forget to scan something, usually someone tells you and you can say omg, sorry i just had so much anxiety with all these items i missed it, and then you just scan and pay ezpz. but unfortunately soemtimes, most the time, 99% of the time. they dont ctach it and neither do I. its not my fault im a really bad cashier. but it balances out, since they fired cashiers, they dont pay those wages anymore, so a few whiteclaws, sprites, waters, etc, not gonna make a difference.
Tips are stupid and I miss Japan because theres no tipping there. The servers in America don't do enough to begin with (unlike Japan where they treat you REALLY good, most of the time)...just taking my order isn't worth 20% of my meal cost. I'm the most low maintenance customer alive. The server only ever has to take my order and deliver my food. which i would be happy to waddle up and get myself if i can avoid paying the tip lol.
It's stupid and unfair. They say that people working there earn minimum wages, so you have to tip, so they would earn more, but what about tons of other jobs that also earn minimum wages, but don't have contact with customers ?? Like a person who cleans streets- earn minimum wage and no one is tipping him, but when he would go to restaurant it's expected from him to tip a waiter... what a bs...
There is no tipping in many European countries either. Tipping has the least value to the workers and most gain to the employers. Why americans want to cling on to this vestige of slavery?
Bruhh that'd be wild af. BET. I'd be sprinting towards the kitchen, clappin' hands with the Chef, Sous Chef and all the other cooks and servers back there and just hangin' out, chillin' with them, having a good ass time shootin' the shit then bring all that food back to my table all by myself. Ha, that'd be one helluva an experience for sure. I'd probably walk all the way back and give them all a fat juicy tip just before walking out lol!!
I haven't tipped in a year. Due to the heavy push for it. I really believe service jobs should increase wages in general. Tips should be voluntary, not forced.
There is a lot of difference between throwing away your money because you can and complaining that tipping is a problem and still getting guilt tripped into giving away your money
@@Pwnopolishe was. He said you're a fool if you tip for approval but that's what he does. He knows they know he's rich and it's expected of him to tip a lot and so he does for appearances.
I went to the starbucks drive thru today and the lady working there shoved one of those tablets with the different tip amounts out the window at me. Safe to say im never going to starbucks again
I don’t believe in tipping whatsoever unless the person does a service that goes above and beyond. I’m not paying to make up for the business not paying a fair wage or for a service that is very CLEARLY your JOB.
I much prefer using cash, easier for me to see what I am spending and stops some little hidden charges that some businesses here use when you use a card
i asked the vape shop why they have tipping enabled when buying vape stuff is not a tipping industry. the owner said the POS provider actually charge him a higher rate if he disables tipping option.
Tipping is such an annoying topic because of how simple it is. If you got bad service, don't tip. If you got good service but would rather keep your money than subsidize labor for small, medium and big businesses... don't tip. You'd be surprised how much happier you become when you just stop doing things you hate doing that you don't have to do.
@@CornpopBadDude So be it. Let the market adjust. We all know why servers prefer the tipping culture than getting minimum wage that other workers with shitty jobs also get. They earn more than the minimum wage earners.
@CornpopBadDude Smaller portions, higher prices. Exactly what the meal is without the tip! If you go to a restaurant and spend $50 on a meal and tip $5, and the next time the meals 10% less food for the same $50 but you don't tip.... that's the exact same cost.
@Shadowwalker1717 Hopefully you always go pick up your own food to make this kind of statement. By your logic there shouldn't be delivery drivers. Because guess what? Every food delivery driver lives off tips. They pay way more than the company. And now you will say they should pay more.....have fun either paying WAY more for your delivery or just not have the service to use in the first place. Do some homework
@@corylawson3809 No I live in Germany were we have labor rights, civilization, unions and atleast minimun wage of 12 euro which will increase. A deliever driver here don't need to live on tips.
Hi, I am an actual American who functions in the real world. Here are the facts, if you get good service and want to tip, then tip. if you dont get good service and dont want to tip, then dont tip...thats literally it, thats how it works. ❤
This is the difference in the culture.. Because for me: Bad service = I pay the amount asked and never come back Service I expect = I pay the amount asked and I come back Good service (like out of the ordinary or if I inconvinence them and get "normal" service) = I tip And sometimes I tip because I don't wanna deal with the X.34 so I round it up to X or if I feel generous
Lol that's literally not it. I am also an actual American, who also functions in the real world. If you don't tip or don't tip enough, SOME workers WILL give you attitude and even worse, threaten you, fight you, spit in your food, damage your car, etc. And other times, it's "mandatory" to tip, delivery drivers or otherwise. That's literally it, that's how it works. ❤
If that guy has to pay his employees what they need to make, he would and then he would just charge you that extra for the food. It's really not rocket science. Later on when you realize that all of those service-based industries now have trash service, blame yourself. Consumers on average will not save money and will get less value.
I only tip, waitresses taxi services valets car washes and the guy that pumps my septic tank. Clothing stores and fast food no, because i don't think it will make me get better clothes or food.
I only tip in cash, and write cash on the tip line of the receipt. I feel like it’s way more likely the server gets the $$, and they can decide what to claim if I only write “cash”. If someone flips a screen at me or I get a tip prompt when I’m carrying out food or just purchasing something in person ( without being served ) that’s a big nope. I get the feeling of guilt that can come with it, but things are getting out of hand and you have to draw the line somewhere.
I went through SeaTac airport a couple weeks ago. Stopped by the unmanned store to grab a soda for the flight. When I say unmanned, I mean it. No one works there. You get what you want, scan it yourself, and pay. When I scanned my soda and hit pay, the machine asked me how much I wanted to tip.
I tip when I do because I'm generous and like helping people, I do believe though that tipping culture especially in the states to subsidize wages and to the extent it does is very shameless.
They have tipping jars at the marijuana dispensaries in Connecticut. The people behind the counter are just doing their jobs. They’re not going above and beyond. Why the heck would I need to tip them?
I don't always agree with you Asmon but the tip about using cash is amazing advice. I'm going to start using cash for most things again as soon as I can. It's great for savings, too. I'm getting one of those "100 day saving challenge" folders where you use it so physically save your cash inside of (I also have a safe, ofc). I've found in the past saving with physical cash is astronomically easier because I want to dip into it less than a digital savings account where money doesn't feel "real". Thanks man!
Lately I've been taking an uber back and forth for a temporary job, it costs about $30-$50 one way. Then of course it prompts me for a tip and even if it's only 10% I'm still wondering wtf the rest of the money is doing.
honestly now, how much your income is.... forgotten about.... come tax time? Sure, its harder these days with less paper users. Tipping is fun a fun game for all americans to defraud the IRS.

@@Natrium9775 that's been something known to happen if the place you order from doesn't put the food in a sealed up bag(like taped shit so you know if it was tampered with), and some drivers admitted to messing with the food in some way like putting it up against the vent in their car while blasting the AC to make the food cold if you didn't tip well enough. You can, however, adjust the tip after the food is received.
I lived in a townhouse complex where the house numbers weren't all in order and drivers would get lost trying to find my house, so I put instructions in there telling them to turn onto the street after X house and then my unit was at the end, and the result was my drivers stopping at X house and just leaving my food there despite the number being completely wrong. So I'd remove the tip for the fact I had to leave my house to go to someone else's and pray they weren't home to see me taking the food off their porch.

Yes, some people live off tips.

The MythBusters literally did an episode on whether larger breasts would cause an increase in the amount of tips. It was myth confirmed.
no one needed to do that expirement.
You’re supposed to tip for the quality of the service after-all, not just by default for no reason.
Feels like larger breasts are two big reasons to tip
Honestly the thing is wait staff themselves don't want tipping to go away, there was a survey done in NYC and it was like 80% of wait staff in favor of keeping tipping because at a decent traffic restaurant waiters take home much MUCH more a day than a regular minimum wage worker
This is the truth. Esp in nicer restaurants a server will make more from 2 tables than they would 10 hours at +50% min wage
Some restaurant owners and wait staff don't want the exploiting customers of their money to go away if it benefits them. It seems like average people are ok with continuing to be exploited of their own money. It will continue until people stop tipping.
Yeah, that's why we should just stop tipping. Consumers are the one fueling this problem and businesses are exploiting it
If people stop tipping then they will want a raise, the continuation of tipping is stopping this from happening.
they dont want tipping to go away cuz they dont claim their cash tips so they dont have to pay taxes on those.
I’m an employer and had recently bought a pizza shop (despite my business having nothing to do with food and tipping never occurs) and immediately ran into problems with tipping. Some people would not tip at all, and then I had an employee realize you can adjust the percentages on the software, and tried to see if he could slip it past our customers. Employees would get into fights because the manager supposedly like the one and not the other, and would give her shifts when it was busy, on and on it went.
It got to the point that I just removed tips altogether, adjusted wages up to compensate. Guess what? Nearly half my employees quit on the spot, despite the fact they were guaranteed a daily wage. They wanted to work 15-20 hour weeks during the busiest time and extract tips from customers, not work 30 hours and make the same pay. That’s why you’re seeing more aggressive tip begging and shaming. Employers want to keep prices down and let all the compensation battling happen between customers and employees while they stick their fingers in their ears.
My employees now start at 14.50 an hour, and drivers who use their own vehicle get a per mile rate on top of it. That was about 9 months ago, and so far, has worked fairly well.
Yep, as I keep saying it is a tipping culture because the mindset is the one propelling the ridiculous expectations. The mindset in countries without the tipping culture or service charge like in Japan or even poor nations without the tipping culture is about just doing your job and not relying on tips.
Servers earn more because of tips and that is why they prefer the tipping method of earning money compared to having the base pay. They serve not because they like to serve but because they know they can earn more. So for them, it is not about doing your job, and hopefully doing your job well.
I would suggest letting your workers accept cash tips if the customer insists, I feel bad when I get fast food and the service is good despite it being busy yet they refuse cash tips even though I know they are not paid well and im only offering small amounts normally under $3, because I work fast food and DO get tips and while I put a lot of effort I appreciate other businesses employees doing a good job under worse circumstances.
Good shit lol. You let the trash take itself out and hopefully your business continues to go well.
@@sadlife8495 So trash the jobs I work at I never ask for tips and sometimes customers try to tip me for helping load stuff into their car/truck. We get told 1-2 times a year taking tips = fired. I don't ask for the tips but if someone's driving a 60k car I'll take the handout lol
Australia has been poisoned by the tipping culture because American companies pay slave wages to immigrants here. On top of this ludicrous corrupt system if you pay more than 15 dollars tip to the driver through the app then Uber keeps the rest for themselves which I have no idea how it's legal. Most American corporations pay zero tax in Australia like Apple and Netflix. Online shopping websites asking for tips also. I will never tip in my life. Say no to this madness.
There's an ice cream place here in town where you get your own ice cream and put your own toppings on and they absolutely hate me cause whenever I go in there I never tip because the only thing the employee does is spin the tablet around when I go to pay and I always click 0% tip. You did actually nothing.

Tipping culture is wild to me. I'm European/German. We don't tip unless service is exceptional. Like genuinely amazing. And then it's maybe like 2€ or if you're rich 10€. Employers pay a living wage here so we don't need to make up for the greed of certain employers.
Same in the Netherlands. If a meal in a restaurant is €78 you give them €80 or €82 ish.
As another German: Service does not have to be out of this world to earn a tip. It has to be decent at least, but not spectacular. When everything is in fact superb, a usual tip would be 10% auf the total amount, 15% at the max. So if you tip 2 € on a 75 € bill you were either just satisfied with the experience or you are a skinflint.
In the Netherlands, the "drive the cost down by taking tips by the owners, to cover wages." Is illegal here.
Its so easy to see that this gives the wrong insentive structures. I dont call that getting a tip, thats fulfilling my quota as a worker to not getting fired.
I've enjoyed this feature of living in Europe. Despite being American I realized at age 16 that American tipping culture is nonsense.
That is how it was in the US as well but everything has been purposely flipped on it's head.
In New Zealand we have this strange tradition where we tip people that we like, or people that put the extra effort in. It has this strange effect, where the workers really appreciate it and the customers are able to do something nice out of their own free will. Kinda fkd up though of you ask me.
As a fellow new zealander it's extremely bad here man. People actually get paid more than 4 dollars an hour. Evil I know

I’ve had workers at places with these tipping screens to tell me to just hit “no tip” or “skip” just like some do with the warranty option screen when it pops up.
Like at a local restaurant and I go checkout after they already gave me my receipt to take to the front, they have outright told me “the option is on the receipt, don’t fool with that if you already did it or don’t want to do it, skip that” along with Subway workers telling me to hit the “no tip” screen.
Don’t ever feel guilt for not tipping. That guilt should be placed on employers for not paying their workers enough in the first place. The only way to change it is to stop giving in and lining the boss’s pockets even more.
Square won't let the company take the tipping screen off. That's why they tell you to skip it most likely.

The first chain resturant that advertises not tipping would be the most sigma move
For a few years now, I live in a European country that doesn't have mandatory tipping culture. You can tip if you want, but it's not expected from you.
Now, I rarely go out, but this difference in tipping culture is precisely what makes me want to tip when I had a great time and feel like it. If I had a great evening - I can unironically make some waiter's evening better by leaving a 10% tip. Left 20% tip once, when me and my wife had a particularly great and memorable evening at one restaurant - to this day I remember how the waiter lightened up once he realised it. He smiled all the way to the door while he was accompanying us to the exit, and shook my hand several times.
Or the last time we went out: once it came to paying the bill, I asked whether I could add a tip - and the server lady said "sure", added *less than 4%* to the bill and asked if that would be too much. Seemed really happy when we said it's perfectly fine.
Meanwhile, it almost seems like if you left a 4% tip in the US, at least in some places the waiters would spit in your face and curse your entire family.
This is what I've seen from people in other countries and that is how it should be.
A tip should not be expected and if you get one it means something other than just someone doing their job.
There is no mandatory tipping culture. In no place. Even in the US you don't have to tip.
@@drachenaura yes there is lol. Sure, nobody's going to point a gun at you and make you pay a tip, but if you don't leave a tip in the US, you're gonna be judged by everyone.

I learned to cook and stopped using services that accept tips. Paying no tips feels like escaping the matrix.
I just trained myself to not tip when I feel that the situation doesn't warrant it (takeout, or when I'm given poor service at a restaurant). I'm not going to just stop going out to eat lol.
Even more so when you discover the rest of the world doesn't actually do this and actually pays all their employees and fair and living wage like what businesses SHOULD be doing!

Bruh I got my first haircut from a legit barber like 2-3 years ago and paid $35 plus whatever tip for haircut AND beard. I still go to that same barber today and he’s done an awesome job every time but now he charges $50 for haircut, $60 for haircut and beard and the min tip on the website is 15% it’s killing me 😫 thankfully he’s cool with me and doesn’t really care bout the tip lol. The barbershop I go to has seriously blown up in popularity in my town and has opened new locations so it was just a matter of time I guess. The business has really flourished since I first went there.
@@Radbiker33357 60 dollars for 30 minutes of work is insane. Service jobs have just got out of control, dudes acting like he's a plumber or electrician with those rates.
Yes, AMEN!! Been doing that for a lil' while now. Lol takes me only 5 and my haircut is usually the classic short on sides, long on top. Other times it's the 'Howzer cut.' Google 'Captain Howzer' and you'll see what I mean. I still manage to keep it all at 5 or under. Sometimes 8-9 mins at the longest. Keep up, bud!! Hehe
as an asian. i had no problem giving bare minimum tipping for required, dining in. and i have no problem clicking no tip or even giving donation or any sort to anything else now.
“It also motivates the server to do well”.
Tips in America don’t do that as they are expected by default. Pushed servers to shame customers instead.
Now, in Europe, that’s a different story since tips aren’t expected they can give good service and get a tip… you know, get a tip for giving a good service and not because you don’t want them to spit in your food.
Tipping shouldn’t exist. The price is the price. Companies shouldn’t provide a service if they can’t pay their employees.
I had a delivery company deliver some massive speakers, >500 pounds each, and I tipped the guys (they were big dudes) $100 each to bring them in the house, help me unpack them, and then move the speakers into place. That was 100% worth it. A tip for delivering an office chair, even if the guy brings it into the house? F--k that.
There's a difference in my mind between paying them for extra service that they're not required to provide (especially when it'd be difficult if at all possible to do yourself like in your situation), and paying them extra JUST to do their job. Lots of people that want tips are JUST doing their job. Or sometimes will shirk on it and still feel they should be given it and whine when they aren't.
The fact that tip counts as an employer paying part of your wage is so messed up. In the normal part of the world, it's counted as a performance bonus.
You do realize the extra money goes to hiring more staff right? This was literally a law created during the great depression which was so beneficial to literally everyone from the employee, the employer, and the customer that it still exists today with little to no changes.
Not a single tipped employee is crying about this. Go read one of the top comments from an employer complaining that all his staff members quit when he replaced tipping with a higher wage. Tipped employees make ~3x (often more) working significantly less hours.
@@Johnsmithhjoe So you underpay your employee to hire more employee. What a great business model.
@@Johnsmithhjoe Here's simpler version of my original comment: Pay your employee at least the minimum wage, and let them take tip as extra bonus.
@@ironclad-m3q No one is getting underpaid. Tipped employees are on average making 3x minimum wage with half the hours worked. You do realize the very thing you want exists in big chains like the Olive Garden and guess what? They split tips among all staff or do tip cut-offs. Employees make significantly less money
@@ironclad-m3q The utter ignorance to dismiss the reduction of unemployment as a bad business model.
Either way the customer is the one providing a salary, and the employee walks home with at least minimum wage. The difference is 1x employee for $7/h or 3.5x employees for $2/h.
There is a reason the tipping law was created during the great depression bozo.
I’ve only ever tipped my waiters/waitresses, food delivery drivers, or my barbers. That’s it and I only tip 10%. I’m not tipping anyone else or anymore than 10%. I find it insulting when these tip screens start at 15%, that’s a very large percentage of the purchase.
I’d rather they automate your job and get rid of you before I pay more than a 10% tip. If you have an issue with the 10% tip or give me bad service I can just not tip you and take my money elsewhere. Your job won’t last long if you chase customers away over tip amounts.
If people felt less inclined to tip this would sort itself out overnight. Your not giving these companies your money. Your giving them your time. That paper money is a representation of the time you spent having to get it. If you earn 20 bucks an hour and you tip a 20 you literally just gave that company an hour of your life when they should be paying their own workers a living wage.
"I don't tip"
"But I depend on tips, as the wage my employer pays me doesn't cover my costs"
"That sounds like a problem between you and your employer. I agree it sucks, and it sounds like it should be illegal. I would support you if you contact your local politicians with the intention of changing that practice...... but what I won't do is bow to the pressure that wants to put the responsibility of covering those wages onto the customer. Don't put me between you and the person who is refusing to pay you a living wage."
You know tipped workers that receive W2 (not 1099) and the tipped wage(~$2.50) get far more than the minimum wage when they work.
@@germmanator People miss that every time. tips are still dogshit, but not for the worker.
As someone from Australia, it seems ridiculous. I actually get the argument about not getting a living wage, but the problem is tipping is a terrible solution to that, as it's so unequally applied. Some servers make more than an engineer or a lawyer (for a low skilled job a chimpanzee could practically do) and others make no tips at all - fast food workers, for example.
@@ViddyOJames if they miss it then why take the job with a 2 dollar wage
most fast food workers don't make federal minimum they make the state minimum, which on the average in US is 12. Only 21 states have a min of 7.25. Fast food workers arent a tipped job, wheras a waiter/bartender is
If I try to haggle a dollar off of the $5 coffee when ordering, oooh *_then_* the price becomes extremely straightforward.
_"Im sorry sir the coffee is $5 its not a negotiation its just $5."_
Fair enough, the coffee is $5.00. Ok now lets pay for it.
*_"Would you like to pay $5.75, $6.00, $6.25, or $6.50?"_*
Lmao the irony
God I love this comment. Frame and pin-worthy.
@@baileyskates And hypocrisy.
in Poland we sometimes tip at restaurants and only in cash since it goes directly to waitress that took your order and not a restaurant.
In my country there is pretty much no tipping, if something costs $5 you simply just pay $5 it's very simple
Cash is generally more secure than cards because most criminals nowadays tend to steal money digitally rather than physical cash.
It is not only "social pressure". In the past, tips were asked after the service was compelted, so to some extent it was "thank you" to the personnel.
Now, it is asked before the service starts and whoever provides the service knows if you tipped and how much you tipped to them. If you don't you get much shittier service. Happened multiple times to me when I forgot to select tip in delivery: most times the order suddenly took at least twice the time it takes with a tip, and when arrived the delivery person claimed they could not contact me and I had to resolve it through support; by pure coincidence it never happened when I tipped max default tip.
Bro, in the past, tips were asked for BEFORE the service was completed. It was To Insure Promptness - T I P. So they prioritize you.
...
@@Popikawaii hmm, in the past, I never got asked before the service. What places asked you BEFORE the service was completed in the past?
@@Popikawaiino you're 100% wrong and that's not what tips means 😂 that acronym was made up at some point.
@randybobandy9828 you're right.
In the middle ages it was used by rich to reward extra effort.
Later it was used by coffee houses to insure promptness.
Now it's used as a tax on the stupid.
@whatevergoesforme5129 indeed, you'd be asked for it 150 years ago.
I have a friend that has only worked as waiter since high school. He started working at Buffalo Wild Wings and now, at 40 years old, works at 2 different high end steak houses and he make 400-500 bucks a day in tips and only works 4 or 5 hours a day.
END TIPPING. PAY THAT MAN THE $15/hr ($60-75/day) HE DESERVES. >_> (Edit: note that that salary is ~$100/hr which is more than I make as an engineer.)
Those high end waitstaff really do an amazing job being personable, remembering things, and creating an experience. I usually give them at least 30%, always in cash.
It took them a lot of time and effort to be successful in those roles, it’s difficult work, but they really make dining an experience and not just food brought to you. They earned every penny IMO

@@chexmixkittyI quit Uber Eats delivery bc I don’t think they’re paying the drivers what I actually tipped.
The more I see on Uber the more it’s astonishing how evil they are.
This is the way. Here in the UK we pay a minimum wage for all jobs. But I always give the delivery driver a couple of pounds in cash or a £5 note. They're over the moon because it's actually a bonus, and not something to make up an amount they deserve to be paid. Always tip in cash if you can.
Because tips don't go on your paycheck 😂
The culture constantly asking you if you wanna tip makes me not want to tip, just like RUclipsr asking you to subscribe and like, seriously… where is everyone’s dignity? It’s embarrassing
Yea, I got so tired of tipping, and I remember the first times I ever tipped or was with friend or family, what I heard about tipping was cause, "It's nice to do so" and other excuses, but I never grew up knowing it was an option or what tipping even was. And after hearing about some people throwing tantrums for not getting tips like this one dominoes clip or like, several restaurants/dominoes where people have terribly written curse words or got upset in person and tried teaching me that I should tip more, I started getting fed up. Thank you for this video! As of started last year, I tipped way less, and after this vid, I'm not tipping at all, unless I just want to. Not my fault the company doesn't pay them enough or at all. I never get tips at my job after all. They need to get better jobs. Either that, or companies need to make it where you have to tip, and no option to put $0. But well all know what would happen if people didn't have the option to not tip, pffff
Amen. Just like the rest of the normal, sane, caring world. God bless
I would hate to live in America.
I would never be able to trust ordering at the same place twice because i'm not paying these people extra for the bare minimum of doing the job they got hired for.

exactly
I *always* tell people I deliver to : "If you don't want to tip, just hit the skip button". I never expect a tip. Yeah, a tip is nice. But that's why I do deliveries as a side job.

@@lovathon6365it’s not really entitlement, mostly just people hoping to make extra money they probably need. If they complain about the tip amount, then it’d be entitlement.
Funny you mention the garbage driver thing, at the end.. Because I actually have been outside a couple times and seeing those workers, who work hard, and have offered drinks and a tip, on quite a few occasions. I agree fully that some of the 'jobs' people take for granted and don't actually get tips nor the ability to even have a screen to ask for such tips are the ones out there working hard/tirelessly, every day.
Cheers!
Online tipping feels like a form of begging. If it's in person I understand I might have got some service from them and based on how the service was I should tip which is again not necessary. Everyone should be paid living wages and not be at the mercy of the customer.
A lot of the times too the tip is just added on as a service charge of some percentile, usually 18% where im at, and they might put a sign up in in a dark corner that says "service charge included", but they're praying you don't see the sign, read the bill and see the service charge, because they're going to ask you for another tip.
18%? That's insane!
I don’t care if people think I’m a miser. NEVER TIP. We have to get rid of these stupid subsidies for exploitative employers. Literally among the only countries that does this.

Rise up Americans and stop this madness! Pay everyone a fair wage and do away with this tipping culture.
I'll vote it into a law if I goddamn have to. THIS is what we Americans need to start worrying about.
Anecdotal experience, but I have never met someone personally who works on tipped wages that don't make significant bank. I've lived in tiny counties of 12k people and bigger cities and have never had a friend that doesn't walk away with, on average, $90 a night on a slow day. Almost all cash, that none of them claim, so it's not taxed. Every time I've talked to them about getting rid of tipping altogether and being paid a flat wage, I've been met with push back from my friends because they say they would be making less on a significantly higher flat wage. I understand that there are exceptions to this, just my experience. Tipping culture needs to be abolished, and everyone needs to be making a decent wage based on the need of the job, work ethic, and skill set it requires.
DING DING DING - we have a winner- Ask any Tipped Employee that we are supposed to feel bad for making $2.15 an hour if they want to make the minimum wage and sweat like a hog washing dishes in the muck and slop I promise you its like 99.9999999% of those servers would never want to stand next to a 700 degree pizza oven and do some work- rather rake in tips and occasionally get "stiffed" rather than get stiffed by their position at the restaurant nightly .
One of my hubbs and I's favorite brewhouse/restaurants started using the digital menu ordering for food. The wait staff only came by to get drinks and bring out food. It started to feel not very personable, so we just go there once or twice a year. When we did go, we only leave a good tip if the waiter or waitress actually pays attention to us.
Luckily living in Europe I "need" to only tip at places I frequent or places that go above and beyond, because 0% tip is taken here as "the service was acceptable"
Yep in Europe tip is for when you go drink a coffee outside and the waiter was good. Gotta make that little bill more fair like 5,20€ -> 6€
Depends on the country really. For example in scandinavia, you never "need" to tip.
@@mellowstrangler That's why I put it into quotation marks. It's not really a need like in the USA but if you have the place you visit frequently and they go above and beyond, then it's like "thanks for being awesome" tip rather than "thanks for doing your basic job description". I have couple of places where I tip generously mainly because I got to know staff over time in fairly friendly manner.
No tipping in Europe, advanced countries. Instead, franchises and owners have to actually pay workers a living wage. And the food prices are no higher than the US. So basically Americans are just paying wages to wait staff that the companies should be paying in the first place.
Every time I watch videos on tipping in USA, I literally don't get it. Some weirdos support tipping culture saying that employees work under the minimum wage. But should customers take care of it? They have no obligations..? It is the business owner's fault. The owner is supposed to take care of it. I literally don't get why some people can't understand this simple logic.
Something happened in the 2010s that threw the model completely off. As gen-x, it used to be a single mom could waitress and afford rent and her child. A bartender could pay their way through college on tips.
It was a system that actually worked for everyone and wasn’t obtrusive or obnoxious.
Somewhere it went from normal, to begging, to demanding and that’s just got everyone’s feathers ruffled. It’s not working properly anymore.
@@johnmaurer3097 Inflation, poor quality products and things just getting too expensive. A lot of industries are just losing customers because it's too expensive and the stuff that used to be good years ago just aren't. It's all cheap crap now meant to maximize profits and provide a "good enough" service or product.
Not to mention just a shaky economy in general. We're slowly approaching 2008 again and nobody learns a damn thing.
It is a canard as well. It is illegal for anyone to make less than the min wage in America. As you said, the business owner is just attempting to raise prices while pretending they aren't.
I was getting paid $10 per hour before I got promoted to $13 per hour and my employer said when I got hired that I’m getting paid $10 per hour because the tips equal out to 13 per hour😐
Just remember, until your server accrues minimum wage, your tips are paying the owner directly. Not even the chefs, straight to the top.
I'm so close to going full Steve Buscemi in Reservoir Dogs.
Don't forget that thoses are the companies that sells you a glass of coca cola for twice the price of the bottle, trying to pay their employee for lesser than a glass of coca cola
I NEVER tip when I pick food up. If I'm eating at a restaurant I only tip 10 dollars regardless of the price. I also don't go to expensive restaurants, I don't use rideshare stuff and even if I did wouldn't tip drivers. Do you tip taxes? No you payt for what they ask
Servers making $2.13 an hour only get paid through tips. That joke hourly wage gets consumed by taxes. I worked for decades in the full service restaurant industry, and 99% of my "paychecks" were $0.00. Then I had to pay more tax at the end if the year!
And we need to protest that you get a FAIR minimum. Servers should be paid at $15. The bullshit you have put up with is mindblowing. Servers work hard.
There should be a Tik Tok challenge called “no tip” and make it catch on.
You know what's crazy. In Canada the companies have to pay minium wage and then there's a lot of companies that still ask for tips
the audacity in Toronto for so many businesses to request a tip. that "skip" button gets used constantly by me
Yeah, it's bad here. We have the same minimum wage laws as the EU, but because of our proximity to the US, we still get slammed with the same disgusting tipping practices employed south of the border. Just means I feel less bad hitting "no tip".
To be honest tho the minimum wage in America is 30 dollars below the minimum living threshold.
In order to afford basic amenities, a home, a car, insurance ect you need to make 32-37 an hour at 40 hours a week in this America. The minimum wage is 7.25 tho.
I look forward to the inevitable demise of humanity.
It’s because Canada is so intwines with the US both culturally and economically that tipping culture gets translated over even when it isn’t applicable
My local supermarket has tipping for self check out now. Im already taxed on every food item I buy bro.
Great example of tipping out of control.
my local market does that too! they even fired their cashiers except for one lmao. forcing almost everyone to self check out. checking yourself out can be a hassle too when you have over 300 dollars worth of cart. IT IS EASY for soemone who is not a trained cashier to accidentally miss some items..... specially when its busy and you got people breathing on your neck. I dont cashier everyday so sometimes i forget to scan the 24 pack sprites and 12 whiteclaws pack and 36 water pack, im just trying my best you know. and the best part, if you do forget to scan something, usually someone tells you and you can say omg, sorry i just had so much anxiety with all these items i missed it, and then you just scan and pay ezpz. but unfortunately soemtimes, most the time, 99% of the time. they dont ctach it and neither do I. its not my fault im a really bad cashier. but it balances out, since they fired cashiers, they dont pay those wages anymore, so a few whiteclaws, sprites, waters, etc, not gonna make a difference.
Tips are stupid and I miss Japan because theres no tipping there. The servers in America don't do enough to begin with (unlike Japan where they treat you REALLY good, most of the time)...just taking my order isn't worth 20% of my meal cost. I'm the most low maintenance customer alive. The server only ever has to take my order and deliver my food. which i would be happy to waddle up and get myself if i can avoid paying the tip lol.
It's stupid and unfair. They say that people working there earn minimum wages, so you have to tip, so they would earn more, but what about tons of other jobs that also earn minimum wages, but don't have contact with customers ?? Like a person who cleans streets- earn minimum wage and no one is tipping him, but when he would go to restaurant it's expected from him to tip a waiter... what a bs...
There is no tipping in many European countries either. Tipping has the least value to the workers and most gain to the employers. Why americans want to cling on to this vestige of slavery?
Bruhh that'd be wild af. BET. I'd be sprinting towards the kitchen, clappin' hands with the Chef, Sous Chef and all the other cooks and servers back there and just hangin' out, chillin' with them, having a good ass time shootin' the shit then bring all that food back to my table all by myself. Ha, that'd be one helluva an experience for sure. I'd probably walk all the way back and give them all a fat juicy tip just before walking out lol!!
I haven't tipped in a year. Due to the heavy push for it. I really believe service jobs should increase wages in general. Tips should be voluntary, not forced.
As a European whenever I’m in America I never tip and I don’t care. I don’t live there so the consequences of angry staff don’t apply to me 😂.

I don’t believe in tipping whatsoever unless the person does a service that goes above and beyond. I’m not paying to make up for the business not paying a fair wage or for a service that is very CLEARLY your JOB.
The two most annoying things in the world:
1. Servers who complain about tips.
2. Servers that brag about their tips
ive heard waiters and such say they get more from tips then a flat wage from the owner.
Wage wise theyd make like 80 bucks tops a day where as tipping they can walk out with over $150 in the same time.
that really all depends on location and type of establishment not all waitstaff in america is making bank.
why should I tip the waiter, all he did was carry the plate. tip the chef instead.

Tipping is such an annoying topic because of how simple it is. If you got bad service, don't tip. If you got good service but would rather keep your money than subsidize labor for small, medium and big businesses... don't tip. You'd be surprised how much happier you become when you just stop doing things you hate doing that you don't have to do.
Not just labor. Food cost are lowered and portion sizes are larger with tipping culture.
Ending tips means smaller portions and higher prices.
@@CornpopBadDude So be it. Let the market adjust. We all know why servers prefer the tipping culture than getting minimum wage that other workers with shitty jobs also get. They earn more than the minimum wage earners.

@CornpopBadDude Smaller portions, higher prices. Exactly what the meal is without the tip! If you go to a restaurant and spend $50 on a meal and tip $5, and the next time the meals 10% less food for the same $50 but you don't tip.... that's the exact same cost.
As a pizza guy who lives off tips, I think it has gotten ridiculous pushing for tipping where it doesnt belong.
You live on tips? Get another job lol.
@Shadowwalker1717 Hopefully you always go pick up your own food to make this kind of statement. By your logic there shouldn't be delivery drivers. Because guess what?

Hi, I am an actual American who functions in the real world. Here are the facts, if you get good service and want to tip, then tip. if you dont get good service and dont want to tip, then dont tip...thats literally it, thats how it works. ❤
Yea but if you dont tip certain people they will mess with your food or purposefully give bad service. Ive seen it happen many times.
This is the difference in the culture.. Because for me:
Bad service = I pay the amount asked and never come back
Service I expect = I pay the amount asked and I come back
Good service (like out of the ordinary or if I inconvinence them and get "normal" service) = I tip
And sometimes I tip because I don't wanna deal with the X.34 so I round it up to X or if I feel generous
Lol that's literally not it. I am also an actual American, who also functions in the real world. If you don't tip or don't tip enough, SOME workers WILL give you attitude and even worse, threaten you, fight you, spit in your food, damage your car, etc. And other times, it's "mandatory" to tip, delivery drivers or otherwise. That's literally it, that's how it works. ❤
I don’t tip shit unless my drink is continuously filled.
Me too brother, it's my only gauge for how much the waiter gets at the end of my meal 😅

@@blakephotographytexas watch jim browning and get back to me...
If that guy has to pay his employees what they need to make, he would and then he would just charge you that extra for the food. It's really not rocket science.
Later on when you realize that all of those service-based industries now have trash service, blame yourself.
Consumers on average will not save money and will get less value.
I only tip, waitresses taxi services valets car washes and the guy that pumps my septic tank. Clothing stores and fast food no, because i don't think it will make me get better clothes or food.
I only tip in cash, and write cash on the tip line of the receipt. I feel like it’s way more likely the server gets the $$, and they can decide what to claim if I only write “cash”. If someone flips a screen at me or I get a tip prompt when I’m carrying out food or just purchasing something in person ( without being served ) that’s a big nope. I get the feeling of guilt that can come with it, but things are getting out of hand and you have to draw the line somewhere.
What the hell is a tip?

Tips exist in Europe though, just not to the extreme like the US and Canada. Also Europe is not the only place in the world that is not the US
I went through SeaTac airport a couple weeks ago. Stopped by the unmanned store to grab a soda for the flight. When I say unmanned, I mean it. No one works there. You get what you want, scan it yourself, and pay. When I scanned my soda and hit pay, the machine asked me how much I wanted to tip.
I tip when I do because I'm generous and like helping people, I do believe though that tipping culture especially in the states to subsidize wages and to the extent it does is very shameless.
11:28 what a flex!
Be it that he earns a lot or spends very little, it's impressive
Why tip the waiter? It should go to the cook automatically on top of minimum wage.
They have tipping jars at the marijuana dispensaries in Connecticut. The people behind the counter are just doing their jobs. They’re not going above and beyond. Why the heck would I need to tip them?
I'm european, but only tip at restaurants, and only full-service ones, only if service was good, and never tip above 10%
I don't always agree with you Asmon but the tip about using cash is amazing advice. I'm going to start using cash for most things again as soon as I can. It's great for savings, too. I'm getting one of those "100 day saving challenge" folders where you use it so physically save your cash inside of (I also have a safe, ofc). I've found in the past saving with physical cash is astronomically easier because I want to dip into it less than a digital savings account where money doesn't feel "real". Thanks man!
Lately I've been taking an uber back and forth for a temporary job, it costs about $30-$50 one way. Then of course it prompts me for a tip and even if it's only 10% I'm still wondering wtf the rest of the money is doing.
as a waiter ima be honest... i do prefer tips. it lets me get more hours/shifts and our restaurant can charge less for food and drinks
honestly now, how much your income is.... forgotten about.... come tax time?
Sure, its harder these days with less paper users.
Tipping is fun a fun game for all americans to defraud the IRS.
