Crazy how it can all be fixed by 1. Make it so employees get a salary fit for their job Ik there is way much more to it but Ill leave that to the economics stoco marketesque people to figure out
@@ferdtheterd3897 that's how it should be, imo. The field isn't one you can practice on for a long time, without sufficient care. I wish, that there were an actual tipping culture for services in hospitals and other institutions, as well! I mean, tipping seems even okay in hotels, though anybody working there will most probably receive a higher wage, if not included in outsorced working forces (like cleaning personnel, in a lot of places). As soon as I saw my local goods shop (whatchamacallit) suffering from inflation, i even started tipping them. I rarely take their nickels back, now!
As a non American, I was really surprised when I came to America when I realised how weird tipping was there. I feel like tipping should be a optional thing rather than obligatory.
@@lemondude9868 I think he is criticizing the excessive tipping lol, not complementing it. I agree with his sentiment, you shouldn't have to pay people more for them to be polite, a service is a service, they lucky I'm buying from them at all
It's more company greed. Fast food joints ask for tips now. It's the stupidest shit ever. Why the hell would you tip someone for doing their job. I'm specifically talking fast food. You go in, quickly order, and get your food and leave. That stupid machine ask for anywhere between 15% tip to 30%. The f*ck they do to earn that? It's seriously out of control. It's also become a way for places to not pay their employees properly "because they earn it via tip" so they have to break their backs getting us food and catch flack for the cooks mistakes.
That's not at all how it goes and you've been thoroughly brainwashed by the internet. We have the highest paid wait staff in the world. If we end tipping, wait jobs become minimum wage jobs. It's why no wait staff ever advocate for the end of tipping. It's delusional people who spend too much time listening to Europeans online instead of just TALKING to wait staff wherever they go.
My first experience getting tips was when I was a barista at Starbucks (yeah, I know.) and to be honest, it was a really nice surprise every week to see how much more I made because of those tips. That being said, I would not care at all if you didn't tip at all. That's your hard earned money and it's yours to use however you want. I've heard stories of employees doing things to the food to spite the non-tipping customers. Ridiculous.
In Brazil, the only situation where you find people entitled to tips is when you park your car in the streets and a random dude asks you to look after your car. He also asks for a tip (in advance). You may find some scratches on your paint later if you refuse their "services".
Also: NEVER EVER "Donate $1" or "Round up your order for the ______ foundation." You are literally paying for the corporation to donate to charity and deduct taxes.
In Canada, tipping is a nightmare. I remember when I first became drinking age here and my family took me to some pub to celebrate. The service wasn't very good, mediocre. While we were about to leave my uncle was like "Did you tip?" and I said "Should I? There was nothing really too special to tip extra" and they acted like I had just kicked a puppy or something. Stupid culture. I wish I was living in a culture where tipping's considered rude or unnecessary.
You should move to Japan then. They will actually get offended if you try to offer them a tip. They think giving good service is just part of the job so giving them extra money on the side for doing the bare minimum is basically calling them a broke prostitute
@@viniciusyurigomesdasilva2756in most countries where majority of civilians are struggling. There is almost no tip cuz everyone tryna survive. I’m from china and I ain’t know wtf tipping was till my mom flew my ass over here. Then i also learned why a lot of foreigners try to save as much money as they can cuz there are lots of people that work really hard and make a shit load of money but get a disease and spend all their money on it and go broke. Cuz no insurance in other countries
I once saw a subreddit, something about "tales from the waiters" where waiters shared stories from their work. I was expecting to see stories about crazy customers, but no! 90% of the "stories" was about "look, I was such a good waiter and they only tipped me 90% of the bill". The hell. If I ever saw a waiter from my country complained about "low tips", I'd remember the restaurant, and never ever tipped there.
Whenever I see posts like that on reddit I always tell them to advocate for a raise instead of blaming the customers. It's really frustrating to feel important as a consumer/customer only for my money.
It’s so annoying how we’re brainwashed into feeling bad if we don’t tip as if it’s our responsibility to pay the salaries of workers when we’re already paying for their services
Hello, I have been working in this “tipping,” industry for a majority of my life. In reality, you don’t really pay for people’s services when you just go to a restaurant. You only pay for it when you tip. Also, I have traveled to countries where tipping wasn’t included, so far from my judgement, it seems people who don’t get tipped in those countries generally do not care about giving excellent guest service. FYI, I’m not talking about a server being funny or charismatic. I’m talking about overall “do your job professionally,” type work. Now, if tipping stopped completely then I will understand and retire from this industry specifically. However, if tipping ceases to exist, then your food and beverages in these restaurants will DOUBLE. Psh, you think corporations are guna let you slide in taking their pennies from them cuz of some laws?
@@calleocho2107 in my eyes say they do double the rates. What then? I’m assuming you dont mean super high class reservation needed places, and mean more applebee’s/TGI fridays etc. As it is most people are hesitant to pay the $50+ you can expect from a dinner for two, and thats excluding tip. I’d reeeeeally hope people wouldnt pay 100+ for what is, at best mediocre. When it comes to at the very least chain restaurants and supermarkets, starving them out would be the best. I honestly don’t think its possible, but look at how walmart literally threatened to close stores that were being stolen from, and those losses were something like 2% of their revenue. They HAAAAAATE losing money, so if they charge more knowing their service and product is 5/10 on a good day, they’re gonna take a massive hit and have to do something. Unfortunately people will just bite the bullet and eat the cost since complaining while enjoying convenience is easier than going without to actually make some sort of difference.
@@dudesinashoe7812 if that’s the case, then yes more Applebee’s/TGI’s would take over the restaurant industry due to its cheaply foods. The restaurant industry would pull a Walmart for sure. Close all the already expensive restaurants since no one will buy their new even more expensive prices and just pocket all the savings. However, the service will forever change. You can’t expect people to care anymore if your food came out cold or wrong or their service isn’t good. That’s like being upset that your burger from Burger King wasn’t made with love lol. Half of the people that have never worked in the industry would NEVER want to work in it once they know how annoying it can get. For the record, anyone who is hesitant to pay $50+ is either too cheap or needs to reevaluate their budget on life in general lol. I understand 150+ though
I delivered pizza as a 2nd job for years. I can say with the utmost confidence one specific community were the worst tippers. It wasn't even close. I once delivered a pie and the total was $19.97. Man handed me a $20 and said keep the change as he went to close his door. I actually said hold on, gave him the 3 pennies, and said you clearly need this more than I do. This cheap mf actually called and complained about me.
As also a non american I barely knew what tipping even was and when I found out I failed to understand why it even exists, just never made sense to me why you'd have to pay more if you ALREADY paid the bill, unless, as mentioned, they give really good service
Correction & Fun Fact: tipping can be seen as rude in Japan because they value dignity and respect much more than tipping. The Japanese believe you are already paying for a good service, so there is no need to pay extra by tipping.
It’s more that they are paid a fair wage for their jobs so the tips feel more like charity which they don’t need. It’s only here in America where tips are basically mandatory if you want your server to actually make a decent wage.
@@dickyv0280the average pay is lower compared to America. it is a cultural thing. they don't expect to get paid from people who haven't employed them.
@@parabolicpanorama they get paid working wages. I lived in Japan for years and have been to about 20 different countries and had conversations with friends who were servers or worked in the service industry and while their net pay may be less than an Americans tip pay due to the value of the dollar their pay is more in line with the cost of living for the area they live in and usually don’t have to work multiple jobs to make ends meet as a server or service industry worker.
I worked at a chocolate shop that sold super overpriced products. Got paid minimum wage with tip split among the employees. We had to write down how much tip we made each shift on a public sheet, and if you weren’t raking in tips, the manager would give you “the talk”. It was the worst work experience ever. At one point corporate forced me to work by myself, 6 days a week, during Christmas month because everyone quit or was “conveniently” on vacation. Glad I finally found a better job 5 months ago, where I feel respected as a human being and don’t need to kiss ass for a livable wage.
@@PickYaPoisonBoy The only difference is that the regular folks work for their money to spend it on drugs, whereas the “homeless” just sit around and bum hard working people all day long instead of attempting to get a job and make their own money.
@@WhiteSupremenah if you get bad service tip a dollar (or the equivalent in your currency), because if you just stiff 'em then they just think your the problem whereas if you go outta your way to give them a single dollar, that'll hurt way more and might cause some self reflection. Specifically though tip it with a card as then, at least in the US, card tips are taxed by the government so it will be a like $.75
@@theprojectofgamersNo. If I get bad service I won't tip anything. Simple as that. It's not about stiffing them. It's about not rewarding them for not doing the job they were hired to do in the first place. Do you tip your Hydro serviceman for doing his job? Do you tip the mechanic for doing his job? Why the fck would I tip some loser for asking me what I want and bringing it to my table?
5:58 Fun Fact! That rule is actually illegal because there were several cases of delivery drivers hitting and killing people because they were going to fast and running red lights in order to make it in under 30 minutes.
@@beybrain7896 One example I was able to look up was Domino in 1993; after the company was faced with two lawsuits from people who were killed or injured by delivery drivers rushing to get pizzas delivered within the 30-minute timeframe, the company dropped the guarantee in the U.S. Feel free to look it up.
@beybrain7896 Domino's got hit with a $78million lawsuit for it in the 80's which is why almost every company abolished the practice, not because it was made illegal. Honestly though this legal threat is probably one of the main reasons why being a delivery driver tends to hover around #7 most dangerous job every year instead of #1.
I use to work as a tech for directv. I got paid real well, the policy was that we weren’t supposed to accept tips, but even my boss didn’t care if we took them, there was 2 times I received $100 tips, usually I would get $20 tips per customer, some days I would end up with $60 in tips, it’s wild because I really didn’t need the tips lol
Fun fact it’s actually considered rude to tip people. There r people who are rich who say it’s “mean” or “uncultured” to tip. The most horrific thing I’ve ever learned.

Yeah this is relevant to me rn because a sushi belt restaurant opened up locally. The servers don't really do anything aside from walk to you your table and bring your drinks that you ordered with a kiosk. You usually never see them (if it's even the same server) until you pay. (You can also pay through the kiosk and skip this last interaction) Since sushi belt restaurants are largely autonomous, tips don't seem justified so I often don't leave anything or very little.
Normally people working merch booths at shows are volunteers and roadies on the tour bus with the band so the tip usually goes to the band by association, and venues are greedy as fuck and take cuts of merch sales so those tips ARE genuinely really nice to give them
Of course it's nice. Giving people money is always nice and they're happy, but why would you? You don't tip the people doing road works when you drive by or the garbage man when he comes to pick up your trash, so why tip other random people for doing their regular job?
Understandable but I am not paying for the guy rocking back in his chair to give me the merch I just paid that took him 3 seconds of "work" by a fat 25% If you want I can go back myself and grab the merch I just bought.
I manage a Chinese AYCE buffet and tipping is a really difficult subject. Buffet is such a low margin business. Food alone is over 40% of the revenue, not counting in rent, utilities, and labor. There are certain months of the year we know it’s slow we’re happy to just break even. We can increase wage for waiters, but it also means that the price will significantly increase from 25/ person right now.
The funny thing about this is I had a conversation with an old lady at my job (I work fast food) and we had a conversation about tips and I told her that ‘’I shouldn’t have to be to the customer to help the worker make a decent wage” which is something I BELIVE I do cashier at my job and it shouldn’t be up to the customer to help us make a decent living
@@mrbiglarge8820Every job that needs to be done should pay enough to make a living. Fast food chains make *billions* in profit annually and you think they don't have the money to pay their employees a living wage?

@@mrbiglarge8820i think you should be able to live if you're working at a fast food place, i know damn well mcdonalds has more than enough money to pay
@@awaitingconfirmation8406 They already do pay a living wage. What you guys want is an EXTRAVAGANT living wage (aka a wage where you can buy the newest products that you want while not hurting to make bills or have food). I have family members that work FF and they can afford rent in a decent (not amazing) apartment with enough space, food, and even weekend nights out in downtown. They just aren't buying the newest phone every year or two, buying brand items that cost 10%-40% more than generic items, and they make informed decisions on things they purchase (quality to cost). McDonalds and such pay $15/hr out here so, idk, maybe it is different in places like SF where cost of living requires much higher pay, but I also hear FF pays more there than here.
It really be pissing me off when I’m getting some frozen yogurt and I literally do all the work from getting the yogurt in the cup to putting my own toppings on and the cashier has the audacity to flip the iPad my direction and expect a 20% tip. Like for what bro? Mf should be tipping me
Wait can you actually refuse to tip? Cuz I’m new in the US and I haven’t been to any restaurants and shit and I’m not tryna pay extra for regular products
The worst part is when some restaurants already include the tip in the bill. And they usually go with the higher percentages like 20%. It's insane how going to diner with the fam could cost like 100 bucks, but you have to pay 120. Like that 20 is a whole extra meal or half talk of gas.
if money is the issue you know it would be far cheaper to stay home and cook for yourself, it would cost a fraction of the price. Seems your problem may not be a financial one....
@anthonyrenna1620 The point is not about affording or not affording to eat out. Obviously, I'm not eating at a restaurant everyday, it's a weekend thing just to have something to do and spend time with the fam. My point is that I have to pay for an entire extra invisible meal just because the owner of the restaurant can't bother paying the people that make them their money. And they probably don't even get most of those tips anyway. I've heard from friends and other ppl, of managers and/or owners, finessing the workers' tips. Whether it be by receiving the customer's bill or in events such as weddings, keeping the envelope full of tips to be distributed among the other staff.
@@dynamicdingus7003 if they "paid their people" then you would see each of your meals cost more so that's kind of moot. I have to agree with the wedding bit though, I ran a few catering halls and was the only member of management who actually distributed tips to my staff so that I get. Restaurants largely don't operate that way, splitting tips or tipping out support staff sure but management dipping in, nah.
@@dynamicdingus7003Profit margins on restaurants is usually low that’s why wage is low. If you don’t want to pay for someone’s work go and cook for yourself. All you’re going to do is waste the time of a worker who is trying to pay their rent.
In Japan, it’s considered offensive to offer a tip. It’s seen as a restaurant/service being so poor that they need charity to stay afloat. But in America, I have to tip so that any “secret sauce” doesn’t show up in my food
I’m a table games dealer and I think it’s bogus that we have to rely on tips to make our living. I think it sucks that employers can’t give their employees a reasonable salary. People should be mad at the employers not the people that don’t tip.
It’s a no-brainer to tip your dealer, regardless. It also sucks that your tip can be bet, or drunken people can have a shitty night and tell you they won’t tip you just because they choose to stay there losing every hand.
@@kiwumara it does suck when people don’t take care of the dealer. Especially when they win like fuck you then I hope you lose all your money. Just show some form of appreciation and those that are down on their luck, should know better than to risk losing more by going on a table. I also hate it when people bet my tip and I lose. It’s one of the worst feelings at work.
Funny enough all my tipping anger goes out the door when I’m gambling. Some of y’all are so good at your jobs, make the experience more fun, and I spend up to 2 hours at a single table? Yeah that’s an easy tipping situation for me. And if the dealer actually sucks, I just move tables after a couple hands anyways. No harm no foul.
I remember my little brother passed his finals so my family decided to go to a steakhouse to celebrate, our waiter not only got our order wrong but came to our table about 5 times just to check what we ordered and after we got our food, i was about to headout and was told to tip him despite the awful service and on top of that my parents acted like i committed murder on him because i tipped him 10% 💀
See if its awful service, you tip 1 cent. In tipping culture (if that even still exists and people understand it) its an insult to their service. Tipping nothing might imply you were lazy or greedy or just dont understand tipping, but 1c means you are fully aware and are doing it on purpose And then theres the opposite end of the spectrum where one time my roommate was ordering a 30" pizza, cost was like $50, an my roommate who doesnt know any better offered a $1 tip. Semi-understandably the guy on the phone was pissed off, but then he just hung up without even doing the order. Both him and i was pissed, and i called the place back like 5 mins later to order, and while i understand tipping culture i wasnt willing to get into an argument with him after tipping 1c and just tipped nothing. Which is even more acceptable than a $1 tip, he just accepted the order with some hella snarky words...
Here in Brazil it's really uncommon for tipping. The most "mandatory" thing about tipping here is that when you're at some restaurant and there's someone playing an instrument/singing, you pay like $1.50 extra.
In big cities theres now an optional 10% waiter bonus that you pay if the service was good. It sucks cause you feel bad for denying it when the service is bad and they usually make you explain why you didnt want to pay it with questions like "wasnt the service any good?". It sucks
In Brazil, the only situation where you find people entitled to tips is when you park your car in the streets and a random dude asks you to look after your car. He also asks for a tip (in advance). You may find some scratches on your paint later if you refuse their "services".
There's a restaurant where I live where there was a guy playing the guitar and singing. However, he wasnt on key and sounded like a dying deer, and whatever song he was playing on the guitar he wasnt getting the right notes and it sounded like a drunk banjo. People were tipping less or not tipping at all because of him, they wanted to eat without a fog horn going off.
Fun fact: several restaurants in California raised their hourly pay, but removed tipping altogether. The result was all the best employees leaving…because they made bank off tips. Charismatic and/or attractive waiters make $200+ a day
@@TrueUnderDawgGamingyeah people forget that these waiters prefer the tipping system since they have no limit what they can bring in. People cry for higher wages but they dont really know what they want. Waiters join the convo and say they need higher wages but then dont choose work that pays them more since theres a lot more hustle potential for waiters or bartenders. Also being a waiter shouldnt be a career and so asking career wages out of a mom and pop shop is just unrealistic. If you want to make customer service or food service your career then being a waiter for life in small restaurants is just not the right move.
First time I ever payed for me and my friends meal at a restaurant. I did not tip ((was still new to this whole “tip culture” thing )) and I will never forget that look I was given plus that side eye. I did tip in the end thanks too my friend. So glad he helped me out. Though since first impressions are hard to erase. I don’t go to restaurant unless I absolutely have too.
@@adamarzo559 Yeah that’s true Kinda why I don’t deal with friends, “friends”, or restaurants anymore. I mean you can definitely choose to not tip. But it means your likely going be receiving some stink eye for it. Maybe more if they are THAT kind of people.
When I was in Egypt for holiday, everybody expected tips. It was charming to some degree, because they told me "You don't have to, but the tip would be for me and my service. If you were happy, I would appreciate it" or something along these lines. They were all friendly and thankful for the tips, so I didn't feel scammed (I was scammed a bit, but that's a different story). It was a bonus for politeness, not mandatory. The tipping culture in the USA is so bizarre to me. They act entitled to tips. Also, in the video it is said "We tip everybody except the homeless". That really made me think about things. In medieval times, people were happy to give money to homeless people. There are cases of communities ordering homeless people to be moved close to them, so that they can give them money regularly. This has something to do with christianity before the reformation. In the USA, people are way more religious (and even Christian) than we are in eastern Germany, but they do the opposite of what good old medieval Germans did, which is giving money to homeless people. If that's true, that means the USA's culture is, in some way, less social than the culture of the so-called dark ages, which is always portrayed as being unfriendly for some reason.
After the reformation Catholicism changed a lot, it actually says something similar to the gates of Auschwitz: “Work Sets You Free”. And in Catholicism it is virtuous to punish yourself or family members for little mistakes - but not in a ‘don’t do that’ way, in a ‘you WILL burn and go to hell for that’ Religion can suck ass
In some countries, becoming homeless is a legit lucrative job. People gave soo much money to the homeless that there are entire syndicate around it. Children and women got trafficked from other countries to beg for money for their """boss"""
@henryneubert7798 Yeah the reformation really opened Pandora’s box on western morality. I wonder if Luther, Calvin, or Zwingli would have regretted breaking away from the church if they saw where their decisions and teachings lead in the modern era.
Servers at least are 100% entitled to tips unless they clearly fuck up. It’s how they survive. People who think a 20% tip is only justified by “outstanding service” (which is completely subjective and not a metric by which to decide who gets to pay rent this month) should not go eat at restaurants. Go to the grocery store. Cook for yourself.
Im in australia, and ive literally never tipped anyone ever. I knew about the concept, but ive never actually seen a tip jar with more than 3 dollars in it.
One of my biggest fears is that when I start looking for a job I won’t get one because I have free forms and I plan on keeping them and for some reason some jobs see dreads as (unprofessional)😂
2:16 Emphasis on this. I’m a waiter myself and I think we should be fighting back against corporations trying to exploit us rather than customers not wanting to tip
I was taught that tipping is equivalent to looking down on someone. I wouldn't tip if the service was beyond excellent, and the service providers would be ok with it. Very few times there are tip jars on the counter but it's far from compulsory and just if you have some loose change in your pocket that is too insignificant to use anyway.
Whenever I see this man drop a video, I instinctually get up and do an improv dance routine, I would cancel a wedding just to watch this man’s most recent video.
I remember one time me and my friends went a ramen shop randomly one night. Their service was terrible and so was the food to the point we all literally felt sick the next day.when we paid thrm and got up to leave one of the guys followed us to the door and stopped us asking for tip (mind u were all like 17-18 at the time) so I told him me we paid he said but we served so I again told him we paid. He looked at me like I was insane and I felt bad but truthfully we didn’t have the money and neither the food or service was actually worth a tip we waited an hour to even get our food.
Tips in Britain are very rare. You only ever tip if they did an extraordinary job. The only time I've seen someone tip was when I was 11 and getting my hair cut and washed and all that stuff. Mum was really impressed by the end that she let the hairdressers keep the £2 ($2.54) change and the hairdressers acted so grateful for that (you could buy full sized cadbury's chocolate bars for £2 back then, so it's not like it's a lot of money). Tipping in America is weird because it's expected to give 20% of the bill extra while over here the workers are so happy if you give them a couple quid more for doing a great job. Makes tipping more special if it's rare.
they are adding the "optional" 10% service charge by default on the bill on many restaurants nowadays though... and if u ask to remove it they ask you why so it's kind of got the same mechanism of awkwardness as a defense as tipping does
New Zealander here and my parents literally never tipped in front of me, nor did any employee ever ask for a tip before. Some restaurants have tip jars but that's about it. The idea of businesses expecting the CUSTOMERS to keep their employees' mouths fed is absolutely insane to me
I did a count of how much money I lose to tipping every month, it’s outrageous. Once I was able to figure that out I started realizing how much is actually unnecessary. I’ve made it a policy to only tip for the service or product I paid for. Cashiers are a big no, they don’t provide customer service or make the food.
I agree. I have never tipped cashiers. They get paid at least minimum wage (and usually a bit more than minimum wage). The BS came about during the pandemic as a way to "support small businesses" but quickly became a way for mega corps to make an extra buck. Unless the position is a "tipped position" (or is a hairdresser) I don't tip.
As a person from Europe, tipping is generally only done in restaurants and is usually like 2-5 dollars, and stuff like tipping at McDonald's is unheard of
I want to go to the US and the topping culture has me shaking in fear. Heck even in the UK where the tip (service charge) is already added, I sometimes tell then to take it off if the food or service was bad, I'm gonna get shanked in the US
I was in Europe for a year and after a month of being back in the US, I alr miss the days when tipping people was considered rude. I ain’t tipping anyone $6 for a cup of coffee 😂
I'm a SEA people. In my place, no matter how low the person's income, tipping is not only not mandatory, it's also not common to the point other might perceive it as weird. Also, doing it too often can make other see you as "rich people who love to flaunt their wealth", even the one being tipped themselves. Your good intentions doesn't always get through
Here is my tip for you for make us smile on how relatable this topic is. Also, I didn't know you like Vietnamese coffee lol (they are god tier coffee fr)
Tipping in America isn’t even a joke anymore. I was with a group of friends at a Rainforest Cafe. The Service for 6 people wasn’t too bad, but for my first time there I thought it all the theatrics was really impressive. I made a JOKE about not tipping because they should have a lot of money anyways and almost everyone glared at me. I told them I was joking and they all laughed. I make dark humored jokes typically, so I was surprised this of all things had them questioning. Had I not been laughing already, I think they would’ve thought I was serious. Yes I tipped the waitress.
Its also crazy to me that universally across the US everyone agrees that tipping sucks and we need to get rid of it but we still do it. Not only that but its slowly been rising over the years. I was raised with the idea that 10% is a standard tip. Now its 20-25% WTF?!?!?!
I think people dont consider if they did get rid of the tipping system, companies would just hike up the price of dining out so they don't come out of pocket as much.
There will never be a time where I understand tipping at the register. Why would I tip you for making my food when that is your entire job? You did nothing extra for me, you did not wait on me; you did your job.
@@TT-ee1vv Went to a place before, I got charged service charge & tips. these guys are nuts. wtf is service charge if they charge another for tips. My problem is the ninja cost. if you have exatly $100, buy $90 food, with tax probably $99, bill came... $125. Charging $25 extra out of nowhere just feels really dishonest. What if I'm short of cash for the ninja charges? Put it up front how much is the food price, if they say the food will be too expensive (food price is taxed, tips aren't maybe), it doesn't matter, If I see the menu and it cost $300, I'll stand up and walk out the door. If they put $$250 then bill come $312.5, it's a scam. Next they probably add rent table and chair. post meal table cleanup fee.

The field isn't one you can practice on for a long time, without sufficient care.
I wish, that there were an actual tipping culture for services in hospitals and other institutions, as well!
I mean, tipping seems even okay in hotels, though anybody working there will most probably receive a higher wage, if not included in outsorced working forces (like cleaning personnel, in a lot of places).
As soon as I saw my local goods shop (whatchamacallit) suffering from inflation, i even started tipping them.
I rarely take their nickels back, now!
As a non American, I was really surprised when I came to America when I realised how weird tipping was there. I feel like tipping should be a optional thing rather than obligatory.
I agree 👍🏽

Tipping expectations have gotten so bad that I was pressured to tip my "waitress" when I ordered no drinks or services at a self-serve buffet.
I just don't tip
If I get pressured into tipping I wouldn’t tip and never go there again
Once I got so pressured that I had to tip a waitress in the other restaurant
Did you tip?

@@lemondude9868 Very american for you to look at the bright side of something that is more of a critique rather than a compliment lol.
It's more company greed. Fast food joints ask for tips now. It's the stupidest shit ever. Why the hell would you tip someone for doing their job. I'm specifically talking fast food. You go in, quickly order, and get your food and leave. That stupid machine ask for anywhere between 15% tip to 30%. The f*ck they do to earn that?
It's seriously out of control. It's also become a way for places to not pay their employees properly "because they earn it via tip" so they have to break their backs getting us food and catch flack for the cooks mistakes.
-How are we gonna pay our waiters?
-Let’s underpay them, and guilt shame our customers!
That's not at all how it goes and you've been thoroughly brainwashed by the internet. We have the highest paid wait staff in the world. If we end tipping, wait jobs become minimum wage jobs. It's why no wait staff ever advocate for the end of tipping. It's delusional people who spend too much time listening to Europeans online instead of just TALKING to wait staff wherever they go.

My first experience getting tips was when I was a barista at Starbucks (yeah, I know.) and to be honest, it was a really nice surprise every week to see how much more I made because of those tips. That being said, I would not care at all if you didn't tip at all. That's your hard earned money and it's yours to use however you want. I've heard stories of employees doing things to the food to spite the non-tipping customers. Ridiculous.
In Brazil, the only situation where you find people entitled to tips is when you park your car in the streets and a random dude asks you to look after your car. He also asks for a tip (in advance). You may find some scratches on your paint later if you refuse their "services".
Those are criminal, in Argentina they are so common too.

In Canada, tipping is a nightmare. I remember when I first became drinking age here and my family took me to some pub to celebrate. The service wasn't very good, mediocre. While we were about to leave my uncle was like "Did you tip?" and I said "Should I? There was nothing really too special to tip extra" and they acted like I had just kicked a puppy or something. Stupid culture. I wish I was living in a culture where tipping's considered rude or unnecessary.
It's very rare to tip in Brazil actually, be in a restaurant, hotel or any other stabilishiment tipping is a very rare occurance.
You should move to Japan then. They will actually get offended if you try to offer them a tip. They think giving good service is just part of the job so giving them extra money on the side for doing the bare minimum is basically calling them a broke prostitute
nordic european countries its seen as rude
@@viniciusyurigomesdasilva2756in most countries where majority of civilians are struggling. There is almost no tip cuz everyone tryna survive.

I once saw a subreddit, something about "tales from the waiters" where waiters shared stories from their work. I was expecting to see stories about crazy customers, but no! 90% of the "stories" was about "look, I was such a good waiter and they only tipped me 90% of the bill". The hell. If I ever saw a waiter from my country complained about "low tips", I'd remember the restaurant, and never ever tipped there.
I once saw a subreddit too..now my dad says,"That bot ain't right"
Whenever I see posts like that on reddit I always tell them to advocate for a raise instead of blaming the customers. It's really frustrating to feel important as a consumer/customer only for my money.
Tipping = Corporations putting pay on consumers rather than employers
It’s so annoying how we’re brainwashed into feeling bad if we don’t tip as if it’s our responsibility to pay the salaries of workers when we’re already paying for their services
Its sad cuz they don't get paid we should make those places pay ppl
Hello, I have been working in this “tipping,” industry for a majority of my life. In reality, you don’t really pay for people’s services when you just go to a restaurant. You only pay for it when you tip. Also, I have traveled to countries where tipping wasn’t included, so far from my judgement, it seems people who don’t get tipped in those countries generally do not care about giving excellent guest service. FYI, I’m not talking about a server being funny or charismatic. I’m talking about overall “do your job professionally,” type work.
Now, if tipping stopped completely then I will understand and retire from this industry specifically. However, if tipping ceases to exist, then your food and beverages in these restaurants will DOUBLE. Psh, you think corporations are guna let you slide in taking their pennies from them cuz of some laws?
@@calleocho2107 in my eyes say they do double the rates. What then? I’m assuming you dont mean super high class reservation needed places, and mean more applebee’s/TGI fridays etc. As it is most people are hesitant to pay the $50+ you can expect from a dinner for two, and thats excluding tip. I’d reeeeeally hope people wouldnt pay 100+ for what is, at best mediocre. When it comes to at the very least chain restaurants and supermarkets, starving them out would be the best. I honestly don’t think its possible, but look at how walmart literally threatened to close stores that were being stolen from, and those losses were something like 2% of their revenue. They HAAAAAATE losing money, so if they charge more knowing their service and product is 5/10 on a good day, they’re gonna take a massive hit and have to do something. Unfortunately people will just bite the bullet and eat the cost since complaining while enjoying convenience is easier than going without to actually make some sort of difference.
@@dudesinashoe7812 if that’s the case, then yes more Applebee’s/TGI’s would take over the restaurant industry due to its cheaply foods. The restaurant industry would pull a Walmart for sure. Close all the already expensive restaurants since no one will buy their new even more expensive prices and just pocket all the savings. However, the service will forever change. You can’t expect people to care anymore if your food came out cold or wrong or their service isn’t good. That’s like being upset that your burger from Burger King wasn’t made with love lol. Half of the people that have never worked in the industry would NEVER want to work in it once they know how annoying it can get. For the record, anyone who is hesitant to pay $50+ is either too cheap or needs to reevaluate their budget on life in general lol. I understand 150+ though
@@calleocho2107 mf just said that someone who doesnt want to throw away $50 on a mediocre small meal is cheap. what a world we live in.
As a pizza dude, I can say that I absolutely hate tipping and wish we could just get livable wages instead 😂.

This cheap mf actually called and complained about me.
@@lainiwakura1776no one thinks this
This video’s theme constantly shifting from a financial tip to a human tip back and forth very randomly is amazing
As also a non american I barely knew what tipping even was and when I found out I failed to understand why it even exists, just never made sense to me why you'd have to pay more if you ALREADY paid the bill, unless, as mentioned, they give really good service
Correction & Fun Fact: tipping can be seen as rude in Japan because they value dignity and respect much more than tipping. The Japanese believe you are already paying for a good service, so there is no need to pay extra by tipping.
It's not just in japan, Asian countries in General don't admit tipping
It’s more that they are paid a fair wage for their jobs so the tips feel more like charity which they don’t need. It’s only here in America where tips are basically mandatory if you want your server to actually make a decent wage.
@@dickyv0280the average pay is lower compared to America. it is a cultural thing. they don't expect to get paid from people who haven't employed them.
@@parabolicpanorama they get paid working wages. I lived in Japan for years and have been to about 20 different countries and had conversations with friends who were servers or worked in the service industry and while their net pay may be less than an Americans tip pay due to the value of the dollar their pay is more in line with the cost of living for the area they live in and usually don’t have to work multiple jobs to make ends meet as a server or service industry worker.
@@parabolicpanoramano ,people like waiters get paid a decent wage
I worked at a chocolate shop that sold super overpriced products. Got paid minimum wage with tip split among the employees. We had to write down how much tip we made each shift on a public sheet, and if you weren’t raking in tips, the manager would give you “the talk”. It was the worst work experience ever. At one point corporate forced me to work by myself, 6 days a week, during Christmas month because everyone quit or was “conveniently” on vacation. Glad I finally found a better job 5 months ago, where I feel respected as a human being and don’t need to kiss ass for a livable wage.
I did pizza delivery only way they know i made a tip was if it was digital that cash was my I eyes only

@@WhiteSupremenah if you get bad service tip a dollar (or the equivalent in your currency), because if you just stiff 'em then they just think your the problem whereas if you go outta your way to give them a single dollar, that'll hurt way more and might cause some self reflection. Specifically though tip it with a card as then, at least in the US, card tips are taxed by the government so it will be a like $.75
@@theprojectofgamersNo. If I get bad service I won't tip anything. Simple as that. It's not about stiffing them.

Yeah this is relevant to me rn because a sushi belt restaurant opened up locally.
The servers don't really do anything aside from walk to you your table and bring your drinks that you ordered with a kiosk. You usually never see them (if it's even the same server) until you pay. (You can also pay through the kiosk and skip this last interaction)
Since sushi belt restaurants are largely autonomous, tips don't seem justified so I often don't leave anything or very little.
Normally people working merch booths at shows are volunteers and roadies on the tour bus with the band so the tip usually goes to the band by association, and venues are greedy as fuck and take cuts of merch sales so those tips ARE genuinely really nice to give them
Of course it's nice. Giving people money is always nice and they're happy, but why would you? You don't tip the people doing road works when you drive by or the garbage man when he comes to pick up your trash, so why tip other random people for doing their regular job?

I manage a Chinese AYCE buffet and tipping is a really difficult subject. Buffet is such a low margin business. Food alone is over 40% of the revenue, not counting in rent, utilities, and labor. There are certain months of the year we know it’s slow we’re happy to just break even. We can increase wage for waiters, but it also means that the price will significantly increase from 25/ person right now.
The funny thing about this is I had a conversation with an old lady at my job (I work fast food) and we had a conversation about tips and I told her that ‘’I shouldn’t have to be to the customer to help the worker make a decent wage” which is something I BELIVE I do cashier at my job and it shouldn’t be up to the customer to help us make a decent living

@@awaitingconfirmation8406 They already do pay a living wage. What you guys want is an EXTRAVAGANT living wage (aka a wage where you can buy the newest products that you want while not hurting to make bills or have food).

They just aren't buying the newest phone every year or two, buying brand items that cost 10%-40% more than generic items, and they make informed decisions on things they purchase (quality to cost). McDonalds and such pay $15/hr out here so, idk, maybe it is different in places like SF where cost of living requires much higher pay, but I also hear FF pays more there than here.

The worst part is when some restaurants already include the tip in the bill. And they usually go with the higher percentages like 20%. It's insane how going to diner with the fam could cost like 100 bucks, but you have to pay 120. Like that 20 is a whole extra meal or half talk of gas.
if money is the issue you know it would be far cheaper to stay home and cook for yourself, it would cost a fraction of the price. Seems your problem may not be a financial one....
@anthonyrenna1620 The point is not about affording or not affording to eat out. Obviously, I'm not eating at a restaurant everyday, it's a weekend thing just to have something to do and spend time with the fam. My point is that I have to pay for an entire extra invisible meal just because the owner of the restaurant can't bother paying the people that make them their money. And they probably don't even get most of those tips anyway. I've heard from friends and other ppl, of managers and/or owners, finessing the workers' tips. Whether it be by receiving the customer's bill or in events such as weddings, keeping the envelope full of tips to be distributed among the other staff.
@@dynamicdingus7003 if they "paid their people" then you would see each of your meals cost more so that's kind of moot. I have to agree with the wedding bit though, I ran a few catering halls and was the only member of management who actually distributed tips to my staff so that I get. Restaurants largely don't operate that way, splitting tips or tipping out support staff sure but management dipping in, nah.
@@dynamicdingus7003Profit margins on restaurants is usually low that’s why wage is low. If you don’t want to pay for someone’s work go and cook for yourself. All you’re going to do is waste the time of a worker who is trying to pay their rent.

I remember my little brother passed his finals so my family decided to go to a steakhouse to celebrate, our waiter not only got our order wrong but came to our table about 5 times just to check what we ordered and after we got our food, i was about to headout and was told to tip him despite the awful service and on top of that my parents acted like i committed murder on him because i tipped him 10% 💀
i thought you said your little brother passed and your family celebrated
See if its awful service, you tip 1 cent. In tipping culture (if that even still exists and people understand it) its an insult to their service. Tipping nothing might imply you were lazy or greedy or just dont understand tipping, but 1c means you are fully aware and are doing it on purpose
And then theres the opposite end of the spectrum where one time my roommate was ordering a 30" pizza, cost was like $50, an my roommate who doesnt know any better offered a $1 tip. Semi-understandably the guy on the phone was pissed off, but then he just hung up without even doing the order. Both him and i was pissed, and i called the place back like 5 mins later to order, and while i understand tipping culture i wasnt willing to get into an argument with him after tipping 1c and just tipped nothing. Which is even more acceptable than a $1 tip, he just accepted the order with some hella snarky words...
10% is insane, I tip some change if I have some I don’t need

Here in Brazil it's really uncommon for tipping. The most "mandatory" thing about tipping here is that when you're at some restaurant and there's someone playing an instrument/singing, you pay like $1.50 extra.
In big cities theres now an optional 10% waiter bonus that you pay if the service was good.
It sucks cause you feel bad for denying it when the service is bad and they usually make you explain why you didnt want to pay it with questions like "wasnt the service any good?". It sucks

There's a restaurant where I live where there was a guy playing the guitar and singing. However, he wasnt on key and sounded like a dying deer, and whatever song he was playing on the guitar he wasnt getting the right notes and it sounded like a drunk banjo.

Fun fact: several restaurants in California raised their hourly pay, but removed tipping altogether. The result was all the best employees leaving…because they made bank off tips. Charismatic and/or attractive waiters make $200+ a day
At least they raised the hourly pay. Restaurants should at least pay their employees a living wage and shouldn’t have to live off of tips

People cry for higher wages but they dont really know what they want. Waiters join the convo and say they need higher wages but then dont choose work that pays them more since theres a lot more hustle potential for waiters or bartenders. Also being a waiter shouldnt be a career and so asking career wages out of a mom and pop shop is just unrealistic.

They were all friendly and thankful for the tips, so I didn't feel scammed (I was scammed a bit, but that's a different story). It was a bonus for politeness, not mandatory. The tipping culture in the USA is so bizarre to me. They act entitled to tips. Also, in the video it is said "We tip everybody except the homeless". That really made me think about things. In medieval times, people were happy to give money to homeless people. There are cases of communities ordering homeless people to be moved close to them, so that they can give them money regularly. This has something to do with christianity before the reformation. In the USA, people are way more religious (and even Christian) than we are in eastern Germany, but they do the opposite of what good old medieval Germans did, which is giving money to homeless people. If that's true, that means the USA's culture is, in some way, less social than the culture of the so-called dark ages, which is always portrayed as being unfriendly for some reason.
After the reformation Catholicism changed a lot, it actually says something similar to the gates of Auschwitz: “Work Sets You Free”.
And in Catholicism it is virtuous to punish yourself or family members for little mistakes - but not in a ‘don’t do that’ way, in a ‘you WILL burn and go to hell for that’
Religion can suck ass
In some countries, becoming homeless is a legit lucrative job. People gave soo much money to the homeless that there are entire syndicate around it. Children and women got trafficked from other countries to beg for money for their """boss"""
@@firework8140 Interesting comment. Thanks.
@henryneubert7798 Yeah the reformation really opened Pandora’s box on western morality. I wonder if Luther, Calvin, or Zwingli would have regretted breaking away from the church if they saw where their decisions and teachings lead in the modern era.
Servers at least are 100% entitled to tips unless they clearly fuck up. It’s how they survive. People who think a 20% tip is only justified by “outstanding service” (which is completely subjective and not a metric by which to decide who gets to pay rent this month) should not go eat at restaurants. Go to the grocery store. Cook for yourself.
Been sicker than a dog these past few days, but I can always count on Degenerocity to make me feel better. He's a real one fr
Feel better soon 😢

I Hope You Feel Better 😊❤
Get well soon,, you deserve it!
Im in australia, and ive literally never tipped anyone ever. I knew about the concept, but ive never actually seen a tip jar with more than 3 dollars in it.
One of my biggest fears is that when I start looking for a job I won’t get one because I have free forms and I plan on keeping them and for some reason some jobs see dreads as (unprofessional)😂

Bro if have to have tip everywhere I am getting something out of my pocket and SAY NO MORE TIPS FROM ME
2:16 Emphasis on this. I’m a waiter myself and I think we should be fighting back against corporations trying to exploit us rather than customers not wanting to tip
The clip he shows is of a dude being mad for getting a supposed 5 dollar tip

7:32 😂😂😂
I was taught that tipping is equivalent to looking down on someone. I wouldn't tip if the service was beyond excellent, and the service providers would be ok with it. Very few times there are tip jars on the counter but it's far from compulsory and just if you have some loose change in your pocket that is too insignificant to use anyway.

Tipping
Never fails

i’m a drive thru cashier and i’m sometimes surprised when ppl tip me cus it’s like i barely do anything
I remember one time me and my friends went a ramen shop randomly one night. Their service was terrible and so was the food to the point we all literally felt sick the next day.when we paid thrm and got up to leave one of the guys followed us to the door and stopped us asking for tip (mind u were all like 17-18 at the time) so I told him me we paid he said but we served so I again told him we paid. He looked at me like I was insane and I felt bad but truthfully we didn’t have the money and neither the food or service was actually worth a tip we waited an hour to even get our food.
Tips in Britain are very rare. You only ever tip if they did an extraordinary job. The only time I've seen someone tip was when I was 11 and getting my hair cut and washed and all that stuff. Mum was really impressed by the end that she let the hairdressers keep the £2 ($2.54) change and the hairdressers acted so grateful for that (you could buy full sized cadbury's chocolate bars for £2 back then, so it's not like it's a lot of money). Tipping in America is weird because it's expected to give 20% of the bill extra while over here the workers are so happy if you give them a couple quid more for doing a great job. Makes tipping more special if it's rare.
My dad tips the waiters at toby carvery 😂
they are adding the "optional" 10% service charge by default on the bill on many restaurants nowadays though... and if u ask to remove it they ask you why so it's kind of got the same mechanism of awkwardness as a defense as tipping does
New Zealander here and my parents literally never tipped in front of me, nor did any employee ever ask for a tip before. Some restaurants have tip jars but that's about it. The idea of businesses expecting the CUSTOMERS to keep their employees' mouths fed is absolutely insane to me
Same for your brothers in Australia, it's just wild that America is like that!!

What A Wonderfully Composed Sentence 👏
I did a count of how much money I lose to tipping every month, it’s outrageous. Once I was able to figure that out I started realizing how much is actually unnecessary. I’ve made it a policy to only tip for the service or product I paid for. Cashiers are a big no, they don’t provide customer service or make the food.
I agree. I have never tipped cashiers. They get paid at least minimum wage (and usually a bit more than minimum wage). The BS came about during the pandemic as a way to "support small businesses" but quickly became a way for mega corps to make an extra buck. Unless the position is a "tipped position" (or is a hairdresser) I don't tip.
Ima go ahead and say it, IN WITH YOU BRO!
That design at 1:51 at the drive through actually sent me back to my childhood but I don't know where I saw this logo UGH
As a person from Europe, tipping is generally only done in restaurants and is usually like 2-5 dollars, and stuff like tipping at McDonald's is unheard of
Couldn’t agree more.
I want to go to the US and the topping culture has me shaking in fear. Heck even in the UK where the tip (service charge) is already added, I sometimes tell then to take it off if the food or service was bad, I'm gonna get shanked in the US
I was in Europe for a year and after a month of being back in the US, I alr miss the days when tipping people was considered rude. I ain’t tipping anyone $6 for a cup of coffee 😂
$6? Damn, where are they charging $30 for coffee?
I don't think anywhere in Europe tipping is rude. It's more of a "keep the change" situation.
No service charge now though
I'm a SEA people. In my place, no matter how low the person's income, tipping is not only not mandatory, it's also not common to the point other might perceive it as weird.
Also, doing it too often can make other see you as "rich people who love to flaunt their wealth", even the one being tipped themselves. Your good intentions doesn't always get through
What happens if I don't tip in the US and just leave?
Die?
You catch a guilt trip
Never return?
A couple of cunts will get mad at you for not tipping
Here is my tip for you for make us smile on how relatable this topic is. Also, I didn't know you like Vietnamese coffee lol (they are god tier coffee fr)

Tipping in America isn’t even a joke anymore. I was with a group of friends at a Rainforest Cafe. The Service for 6 people wasn’t too bad, but for my first time there I thought it all the theatrics was really impressive. I made a JOKE about not tipping because they should have a lot of money anyways and almost everyone glared at me. I told them I was joking and they all laughed.
I make dark humored jokes typically, so I was surprised this of all things had them questioning. Had I not been laughing already, I think they would’ve thought I was serious.
Yes I tipped the waitress.
1:47 my local bk has a tip jar so does the Taco Bell
I've just stopped tipping altogether as the Indian drivers/drive-thru workers don't even get my black f**king coffee right somehow

Its also crazy to me that universally across the US everyone agrees that tipping sucks and we need to get rid of it but we still do it. Not only that but its slowly been rising over the years. I was raised with the idea that 10% is a standard tip. Now its 20-25% WTF?!?!?!
I don’t do it. Fuck em.
only small sub section of youtube comments and low-income bottom-class complain about tips. ZERO middle-class and up worry about tipping
@@jadenpark7943Nah it's the waiters I see screaming about how the tip they got isn't enough online.
I think people dont consider if they did get rid of the tipping system, companies would just hike up the price of dining out so they don't come out of pocket as much.
I started dying when you brought up Starbucks like “Why would I tip the drive thru cashier” w me being a barista and a drive thru cashier there 😭😭
There will never be a time where I understand tipping at the register. Why would I tip you for making my food when that is your entire job? You did nothing extra for me, you did not wait on me; you did your job.
Me too, like why I am already paying for a service....
Imagine if everyone starts demanding tips, nurses, teachers, plumbers, the police, etc
@@TT-ee1vv Went to a place before, I got charged service charge & tips. these guys are nuts. wtf is service charge if they charge another for tips.
My problem is the ninja cost. if you have exatly $100, buy $90 food, with tax probably $99, bill came... $125. Charging $25 extra out of nowhere just feels really dishonest. What if I'm short of cash for the ninja charges?
Put it up front how much is the food price, if they say the food will be too expensive (food price is taxed, tips aren't maybe), it doesn't matter, If I see the menu and it cost $300, I'll stand up and walk out the door. If they put $$250 then bill come $312.5, it's a scam.
Next they probably add rent table and chair. post meal table cleanup fee.
I almost went deranged
