Tipping is getting ridiculous

Would love to know who decided that 20% is the new tipping standard. Restaurant owners are fully expecting for patrons not only to pay for food, but to pay their wait staff's salary as well. I have no issue with tipping for great service, but it's not on me to pay their rent too, especially when I drive to a pizza shop for take out.

Never tip for takeout. You are doing half the work plus gas
 
Felt this needed to be on this thread.
 
Noticed the tipping option at gas stations for the first time couple of weeks ago. First time I’ve been anywhere where I wasn’t being served food, and they still asked for a tip.

Tip the lady running the cash register at the gas station because I bought a couple of drinks?

:wtf:

Same. Only time I’ll stop to get coffee is on road trips.
 
My biggest tipping gripe is for places like grubhub or ubereats. I personally would never use them, but I go to my brothers a lot and he prefers to use them. In the past year or so, we've used them 20+ times probably. I'm not sure our entire order has been fully correct once. And they require you to tip before you get your food. Those lazy fucks don't pay attention to what they are picking up and delivering.
 
Asking for tips is panhandling.

Fuck that.

A tip is closure. It's always been the last thing.

Yea, the idea that you have to select the tip before they perform the service they are being tipped for is ridiculous. That is easily the worst part of the current tipping culture.
 
My parents don't really understand real tipping. I mean, they know what it is, but they don't know how to do it right.

I cant' stand going out to eat with them for several reasons. First, they ask a hundred questions about the menu, and those questions would be answered if they bothered to...read...the...menu. Second, they barely understand how to pay without there being a cash register in front of them. Third, and maybe more importantly, they don't know how to tip. They generally tip 10% if the service was good. That's why I try to always leave the tip myself or else I leave more than what they leave.
 
The biggest scam is them trying to get you to it by percentage instead of a dollar figure.

A dollar or two, whatever. Any more than that because it's technically 15% and all you did was flip a screen? Fuck you.

Food delivery apps are the biggest crock of shit.

Only used it once in Orlando.

Subtotal: $43.38
Final total after all fees and tip: $67.63

For a cheese pizza, caprese salad and cheese bread.

The fuck are we doing here.

The 20% tip is an owner created policy so that the owner can get away with low wages and no healthcare. They deliberately create contempt aimed straight at the people they need the most. I never fall for this. I only tip for sit down service. If I order a pizza I have to pick up, or get a coffee and donut at a drive through, you can expect the tip feature to be skipped. If you're stupid enough to insult me, you may not like the result. In a sit down restaurant, if the service is merely adequate, the tip is 15%. If it's friendly and courteous, I'll bump it to 18%. Spectacular, will get you 20%, but spectacular is pretty rare to see these days.
