I push the no tip button with my whole chest and 10 toes down!
I heard some dentists are now wanting tips. 😂 It’s like, here’s a tip…stop charging so much!
If you round up your total for a charity at stores or wherever, you are making a donation to that charity. But the store actually gets the credit and gets a tax write off for that donation. So customers are supplying the money for the donation, but the business gets the credit. (At least that’s what was explained to me. I’m not a tax person).
Use cash! Especially at places you don’t wanna tip like McDonald’s or something
This!
Nah, just click skip or 0/ No
Who cares what random strangers think of you
Don’t forget cash app because using a regular card they will take the tip out 😂
Restaurants in the US have to have it on display or make customers aware that gratuity will automatically be added to a bill. So if it is not displayed within the restaurant on a sign posted at the door or on a menu then they can't legally do that. They have to legally disclose it in advance before a customer orders.
I only tip whenever I sit down at a restaurant. 20% if the service is good. To go orders no….
Ditto
Same

I went to go pick up Thai food, pick up order, I go into the restaurant and pay, after paying my change is $15 and the worker asks me if I want my change back. I suppose she expected a $15 tip for giving me my pick up order.
American consumers have been gaslit into thinking it’s their responsibility to pay servers enough to live on. The businesses need to pay their staff a living wage and build that into the price of the goods - like the rest of the world does.
True but until that changes, not tipping is not the answer
@@shea5542 - Not your concern, and not mine. If a business is auto-adding tips into the bottom line, the only thing it tells me is that their margins are so razor-thin that they aren't sustainable, and I don't need to go back there.
Start voting with your wallet instead. It's the only way to enact meaningful change.
How is not tipping not the answer? I vote with my wallet. It’s literally my choice and I’m not wrong for it at all. No one guilt trips me.
Did you guys know that when you give "donations" to these corporations, they use that same money to donate as themselves and get a tax write off? Yeah... 😒😒😒
Simple solution boycott businesses that have a tipping culture
We'd be boycotting 95% of businesses
Why do I tip the blackjack dealer when I always lose?
Oh shit! 🤣
I avoid all places that require tips. Cheap, stingy, frugal is what one has to be to save on financial journey. America, we can learn from other countries
Looking more for those Eastern European type vibes 😂
We don't usually tip in our country unless the service is fantastic. If employees were paid a better wage, the tipping culture wouldn't be as bad.
I just started forcing myself to decline tipping no matter what after a certain point. Until the employees demand more from their employers, nothing will change.
If a server is making $2.25 an hour and they're busting their chops to make you happy they deserve a decent tip. But if sonic drive in workers are making $15-$20. They don't deserve an extra tip. Sorry, not sorry.
Wth he talking about? We went from Starbucks to BJ’s??? 😂 I too am speechless!
Right?! lol
I bet HE was the one who walked in with a chip on his shoulder to begin with. She probably just dished him back his rude attitude, he got butt hurt and decided it was a wise decision to sxually hrrass an innocent employee.
Yeah that guy is tripping lol
He had me in the first half. Then he said that. like bro you said what!! 😂
Homie was living in a mike judge movie
There’s this crab cab bar/restaurant I love going to. I typically get a martini & shrimp spinach dip. Idk how but, one time I went and got 2 drinks(it was a tough day) and my usual spinach dip….it was $70 after they added their 25% gratuity…I was floored! I got 3 things! No meal or anything and 70 bucks! These tip prices are going to get some of these businesses & servers knocked the hell out…just ridiculous
In the parts of Europe I have visited, there were no tips. I was an active duty American Soldier on well-fare because my salary was considered below the poverty threshold. Something bad has already occurred. We just haven’t observed it as a collective.
When and where was this? We now have those little begging tipping software in Sweden and Germany. Tipping culture had already spread from America before covid, but my first encounter woth the dreaded software was in August of 2023 when visiting a small cookie shop, bought 4 overpriced cookies to go and I could not simply hold my card against the machine to pay, but would have to actively choose 15, 20 or 25% or press 'no tip' right in front of the anglish speaking store clerks face after she had been very friendly. I just turned to my boyfriend and said 'I don't know what to do, I am not used to this.', and then repeated the same sentence to which the store clerk, still friendly, clicked the 'no tip' button for me and I could just pay for my cookies to go.
It was very awkward for everyone.
I pretty much never re-visit a no-service place if they have software asking for tip as well as service-places where the staff asks to my face if I want to tip.
The only times I have no issues tipping is if I am given the bill and then left alone until I am ready to pay, giving me time to think about what I want to tip in piece.
I can't stand having some server breatge down my neck, cap-in-hand, it's ridiculous.
I have had many occasions where I have to half-ass explain what the “service fee” on the bill is 😒😒😒. It’s embarrassing and upsetting, tips or “service fee” were not fully given to us. It’s not fair at the ends of the day. Once you go into customer service, either because you NEED THE MONEY but don’t like the line of work or because you genuinely love working with people in a highly stressful and fast paced environment, you know from the second you get hired what your job is. Keep the customer happy. That’s easier than you may think. He said it, keep my glass full, please get my order right and check in me from time to time cause maybe I need salt and I’m not at my house to go and get it myself 😅
New office... who dis?
I'll give them a tip...... Don't smoke in bed!!
It’s that employer’s don’t want to pay their employees a livable wage, so they depend on the customers tips to pay their employee’s. Shouldn’t be in business if you can’t afford to pay your employees correctly.
i agree, tipping is ridiculous and now expected regardless of service. BUT, if you live in a state where you can't pump your own gas (Like NJ), I think gas station attendants should be tipped if they're friendly and helpful. They work hard and it's a thankless job yet they never have tip jars.
It's crazy! What is also crazy is that I have never had someone else pump my own gas, forgot some states do that!
@@jjbuckner In New Jersey it's illegal to pump your own gas. I always give the attendants a few bucks for a tip if they're decent and halfway polite. It really is a hard job. NJ also has the highest property taxes lol
I will literally push my gas to the next state (usually Pennsylvania or Delaware) or fill up in the previous state (NY) to avoid tipping a gas attendant. Gas is expensive AF and now I have to tip on something I could’ve done myself?! NJ needs to abolish that ancient practice. And if you’re in a rush you have to wait…
@@babyg7796 the tradeoff though is that gas is cheap AF in NJ. I've driven to Jersey with just enough gas to get over the state line just so I could take advantage of cheap Jersey gas. So it evens out.
Stop eating out simple cause this is crazy . No way should 20% tip be a requirement .
I don't live in a big city, so maybe that's why I think this video doesn't make sense. I have no problem saying NO, and I ignore the tip jars everywhere. And I do not roundup. Say NO!
It’s definitely a city issue primarily since everyone is typically a service provider. We have to tip for coffee, ice cream, parking, food, take out, car washes, etc. it’s because it’s over saturated & there’s no room nor is their enough money to live there comfortably…*que the excessive tipping*
The "would you like to donate to this and that charity" is getting out of hand as well. Every time you check out somewhere. We're not getting any taxes back on it either. Now days i just put no.
They do it in Walmart when the owners are billionaires!! Let them donate to the charities!!
Odd perspective but, I recently watched Fifty Shades of Grey & I really paid attention to the charity event/gala they went to and where the $ was actually going…they were getting prizes such as a vacation to aspen & other expensive gifts. It soldified in my mind I will never monetarily donate to a charity again unless it’s tangible items (food, clothes) . They take the $ and do absolutely nothing with it…
@@babyg7796it depends on the charity. There are websites where you can see what funds of which charities go to which categories like admin, marketing etc
They aren’t all bad
I agree, I tip because of the service… a sit down restaurant, a delivery of food or groceries to the house. No drive ups or walk ups😉; the person actually gave you service and didn’t just ring you up.
Its not our responsibility to pay them, that the employers role.
Former barista here: We knew if you tip if we were actually looking at the total on the screen. Most of the employees didn’t really pay attention unless it was cash because the tips get split between all the employees anyway. When customers found this out, they would often try to sneakily give just the barista that served them money or they would put it in an envelope or gift card for that specific barista. However, you’re not allowed to keep any tips even if the customer wants you to have it. I was actually chided at one point for not turning the screen around for the customers to tip at the drive-thru. But I would let the customer know that they were under no obligation to tip so they wouldn’t feel forced. But I was chided again just for saying that.
Now as a former pizza delivery driver also, tipping makes more sense.
But what doesn’t make sense is customers that want to tip $20 at the drive-thru for a coffee and customers that will barely tip $3 for you to deliver a pizza to Timbuktu. Not trying to seem ungrateful, just doesn’t make sense. Especially since baristas are paid more than min wage and pizza delivery drivers make less than min wage and have to make up the rest from tips.
What yeah but from a customer perspective I except to tip 25% at Starbucks but only 15% for pizza but truth is when picking up form stores like Target and Kroger I only give $5.00 so... Yeah I had never questioned that ever.
People tend to tip those they relate to whom they feel hold a place of value. People look down on Delivery People in every country.
That super wholesome (the first part). I hated being a cashier, but you really do see some gems hidden in the dirt.
Don't go out
Is that so hard?
Coffee at home is $.50 burger fries $3
And that's the problem. Ive tipped before and servers attitudes change. I want to be able to get my money back from these ungrateful bastards.
If you paid with card, you can dispute the charges
Maybe these workers should find a better paying job, rather than relying on tips to survive. I generally avoid going to any business that expects me to tip their workers.
Some people aren’t intelligent enough in literal iq to get a better paying job. It’s not that simple.
As a school teacher, I made less than when I was a hostess and barback at a restaurant, and I taught calculus. I have other options because I was born intelligent, but not everyone does. It’s not all just choice. People have to work with what they’ve got and I wish we had a livable wage for all. It should not fall on everyone else though. It should fall on the employers.
I honestly feel guilty for that added step for customers check out experience. I know I’m not going to get those extras bucks but I usually tell them, “you can go ahead and skip that” and I proceed to help them with whatever other step or question they may have. I have worked at a restaurant where people sit in and dine and lots of people are very generous and I am very very attentive towards all my guests/customers regardless of a tip being given or not. I guess that’s the point of food/customer service.
Now, I am currently working as a hostess/ cashier and even thought I do go above and beyond to cater to my customers needs I still don’t feel like I’m entitled to a tip. People still do it but I let them know they don’t have to do that.
In Maryland tipped workers minimum pay is $3.36 hr, however if that and tips do not add up to the states $15 hr minimum wage the employer is required to pay the difference and make sure they're at least making $15hr. Most people do not know this and assume they're just making tipped wages.
Same thing in wisconsin although the minimum wage is much less
The tip is .. they should be thankful for thier paycheck .. we don’t have to tip .. I never tip …. I rather pay for someone’s groceries in line or a meal at drive thru .. something like that .. I was a waitress and Cleaned rooms in hotels I never got tips .. I was happy to get a pay check .. done and done
Restaurants I tip. Delivery of groceries I tip. But going to the mall or some random place and they expect me to pay overinflated prices on top of tip is ridiculous
Tipping today is just another extra taxes.
Never understood why people spend money and eat at restaurants with terrible staff has always been beyond me
I’ll just cook at home and not be treated like crap
Best.
Comment.
Ever.
Seriously!
If you can’t live without tips, it’s time to find another job
I usually do the tax * 2.
I RARELY receive service that actually deserves 18*%
You definitely see the fee//gratuity/tip on your side of the screen as a worker. Lol
I usually tip on “to go” orders; although I believe the “tip” culture has gotten out of control.
However over …70% of my “To Go” orders are incorrect or missing items.
I’ve decided that I’m curtailing my tipping.
And the “Tip-guilting” has gotten worse in the Service Industry.
She wasn't Eastern European. She was J3wi5h.
I'm sure glad I'm an older fart now and lived in the days when you gave a person a tip for providing good service. As a guy who relied on tips when I took crappy jobs to supplement my income in the past, I get the importance of the gratuity. However, in today's society they're making it a "must" now, and yet it's not going to change this "old dog". I'll give a tip when the tip is deserved and not if the server has a crappy attitude, or just plain rude or incompetent.
I'm sure getting tired of today's attempt at micro-managing everyone's thought process!
Bring back Old School!!!
You interrupted every single video. I tipped you a big 👎🏼!
To the American people: please send me a 35% TIP because I expect it...
No
It's the companies duty to pay their employees.
If you pay cash… the machine can’t ask you loooool
Tipping is for when you are sitting down. Sit down restaurant= tip. Haircut = tip. Those are pretty standard and part of the deal. But I'm not tipping at the coffee shop, quick serve restaurants unless I've had a really great interaction or often when it's a small business. I'm a generous tipper but I actually had a plumber hand me an iPad with a tip screen recently. It's like "dude you set these prices, you charge what you think you are worth".
Don’t go out to eat unless you’re going to tip. The tipping is stupid af but until employers are required to pay their workers, it’s the hard working employees that suffer when you don’t tip, not the big businesses
It depends, most time I tip. I figure if I can afford to help someone else out with a few bucks more, then it’s worth it. But at the same time, I don’t want to feel forced to tip.
nope drinks are not free refill
I hate when they give you a new cup but don’t take the old ones and you have a table stacked with cups lol
THIS!!! hahaha
we dont tip. companies need to pay workers not customers
One additional thought. If I buy a coffee for four dollars, but I’m going to sit down at the coffee shop for an hour or two, I will tip two or three dollars because I’m occupying the chair for it. Period of time and I appreciate being able to do that.
Not a bad way to look at it.
These companies paying waitress 3 an hour depending on customers to tip them???? Ridiculous
Tipping is getting so out of hand, i know 3 servers well and all 3 make as much or more per hour as my 2 friends who are engineers with years of experience in the field.....
Yo.... WHAT?! **starts filling out applications to be a server**
@jjbuckner I mean all 3 work at good places but ya they make like $60 an hour on average
@@level1life79 lol my friend was making more then me as in home lvn. I don't want to hear crap about I don't make money so tip more crap
In Europe, people are well paid for their work, so tipping is not common.
I'd be curious to see pay stubs of people from the same line of work here in the US vs Europe.
The Culver’s worker is lying, you can see what they tipped. I used to work at a subway that had that and it shows the total after they pay, which includes the tip or no tip.
I just started forcing myself to decline tipping no matter what after a certain point. Until the employees demand more from their employers, nothing will change.
why cost of living has to do with tips?
Tips for GOOD service used to be 15%... somehow, we've made it 20% for average service.
Crap some people dont tip period, even pizza delivery
I’m in Ireland and tipping is not expected here at all.. this is so weird..
I’m in America born and raised, I’m 33 and trust me America is gonna founder soon. Civilians are about to go to war with our own government. We can barely afford to eat, even if we have a college degree, and our military vets sleep in the streets. The only way out of poverty here is through criminal actions. Unless you’re lucky enough to become a celebrity.
I don’t go to these places anymore
I'm with you. I used to go to Subway, Starbucks, and McDonald's. Since seeing this "Tip" bull crap, that put the nail on the coffin on not wanting to go. No regrets!
"Tipping culture is getting out of hand." Well, guys, don't tip!! It gets out of hand because you, consumers, allow it. Don't feel bad not tipping.
Only food delivery drivers “should” be tipped. If you don’t want to tip them, then just pick it up on your own. It’s unfortunate because they should be paid enough, but a lot of food delivery drivers survive on tips and I can’t imagine not tipping them. THEY are the only exception. NOBODY else should be tipped..
I've tipped for take out but its not going to be 20%.if anything a buck or 2
Soon, I will be seeing a tip button on my non-commission stock trading app. 😂
India we don't have a tipping culture. Only the rich here India influenced by the Americans tip just as a status symbol nothing mandatory
Lets be real here. Wether you work in a sit down restaurant or not. It’s part of your JOB. Tips should never be expected or included within the bill.
Pay proper wages and if people tip you it’s a nice extra.
I’m not tipping for mediocre food and mediocre service. If it’s excellent I’ll happily tip you
This is the same problem with door dash drivers! Why the heck do i have to tip before you even bring my food? Why cant I tip after the job is done, based how well you did the job.
Who's supposed to pay you for doing your job? Your employer. What are the customers supposed to pay for? The food! Then end good night!
Thankfully we pay staff well enough that we don’t need to tip here in Australia 🇦🇺 if we do it’s for genuinely good service 😊
Tips means... To Insure Proper Service!!! No one even knows this!!!
Wow man, been watching your videos for a while...had no idea you're from the Ozarks. I'm up in the Columbia, MO area. Great video as always
I’m British and we have a reputation for not tipping - I tip if I get good service across the board - I don’t sub businesses that won’t remunerate their staff fairly - sorry. Edit - and don’t get me started on cruises 🚢.
The government has to have a piece of everything no matter how small, if you sell $500 worth of food in a night the gov taxes the server 15%, $75, of that total, whether they are tipped or not + the regular 38% in deductions, and that's just for the server, then the cook, who's paid $20 gets to pay his 38% on his wages but if he gets tipped their not charged the 15%, it's only the servers that get charged even if they have to split their tips then of course the owner gets to pay his share. We have forgotten that it is the government that works for us, we do not work for the government yet they dictate almost every aspect of our lives, and they engage in harmful practices that hurt us and our country, we are very quickly becoming a third world nation and for all our accomplishments and all the sacrifices our people have made that makes me sick to my stomach, that our leaders, our employees, can be bought and sold by corporate elites whom they owe their allegiance to. Think very hard when you vote in November, if you want our people and our country to suffer even more, if you want your money to be totally controlled, if you want a master who makes all of your decisions, if you don't want to keep what little freedoms we still have then go left but if you still want freedom, life, liberty, prosperity and the pursuit of happiness then take a right. Left our country goes down the drain forever, Right the bad players go down the drain and we all get a new boat.
I'll tip if you provide good service, i wont tip if you're rude, i will tip more if you provide exceptional service, but dont never expect it. I do it because of the great feeling it gives me. If you expect me to tip, dont expect me to come back.
This.
Funny enough that people accept to pay a percentage more expensive of food on Uber Eats than going to the restaurant by their cars! And when it comes to paying tips they keep arguing. It is not about whether you tip or not, it is about the twisted logic. If you cannot afford tipping 5 dollars, then why do you order food??!
I had some Zazzy headbands in my cart and went to checkout and it asked for a tip- wtf? Didn’t place the order, found some cheap similar headbands on Shein instead.
I rarely go to restaurants but the few places I do go to give awesome service and don't expect a tip. When the server sees the tips, he is very appreciative.
Lately, I have been tipping the women cleaning the public restrooms when I see them. I tell them: God sees them, and He wants you to know that. She will never see me again, I am thankful for a clean public restroom.I also tip cash to elderly delivery drivers in addition to the minimum suggested via the app.
This video is GOLD lol I agree 10000X man the tipping is ridiculous they expect the tip even when you are treated like trash.
Now a lot of restaurants are no tipping but add on a 20% service fee that they say isn’t a tip… but you know the servers still want a tip 😂
Tipping should be after the service, not when you order.
Pay in cash. Problem solved.
Its funny, this had to come about for Americans to get the European experience of wtf are you doing over there.
I tipped 25% but later saw an additional 20% on top of the total. I called the restaurant and the manager said it was a "mistake" by the server. Huh???
Was it just you or were you with a large party?
People stop buying mc Donald because its to expensive.
Where is my tip from business that I give business to? Reward the customer!
JJ have you ever worked in Hospitality
Its true you are paying for the experience. You could do all of this at home and make your own food and coffee but they make you a nice one
'The whole donations thing is so they can use your money as a tax write off.
I need people to donate to my beer fund.
They already take so much tax in restaurant and I don’t wanna tip
The server get the rest of the money from, the employer, to make up the difference.
You said my steak 25 dollars from 50 dollars that's 50 percent not 20. I think imo you shouldn't able to speak about the subject until you work whatever service job you are speaking about for at least 5 years... That 50 dollar steak is not just for the steak there is a reason why the restaurant hospitality industry has some of the slimest margins. How bout we don't tip like you said and close every last service oriented job in the country and unemployed hundreds of millions of people I think that's a perfect idea...
How about who cares😂 I’ll eat at home while you go look for another job.
Funny all the ppl we need tips, dont want better pay cause they make more in tips
I subtract 20% when they do that. I always pay cash.
I’ll only tip if the food is better than my wife’s…it never is.
Pay cash...no debt...credit...digital...etc...
Most people don’t carry cash anymore, and you can just decline a tip..
