Something I don't get, why is it percentage based? I mean, I get it from the waiters perspective. But as a customer? Whether my one plate of food is 20$ or 200$, he did the same thing. Scaling with more items or time spent would seem more appropriate.

If you are are trying to find logic within tipping you might as well chase windmills. It's dumb as bolts.
Well usually more people means a higher bill, more people is more work. Lots of places even just add gratuity to the bill once a group size is large enough.
But tipping is dumb, and working in the service industry sucks... I have no easy solutions.
I have no easy solutions.
There's an easy one that could be legislated tomorrow by any states.
Raise minimum wages and enforce it throughout ALL workplaces, including wait staff. Nobody should be earning less than a living wage just because they're restaraunt staff.
Americans be like; “If you can’t afford to pay 69% tip then don’t go out eating at all”
I gotta say, complaining about being on the verge of a recession while going out for a $70 meal really puts my poverty into perspective.
If you're going to say "69%" , you need to call it eating out, not out eating.
It’s only eating out if it’s 69%, otherwise it’s just sparkling oral.
Also, complaining that things will cost too much if waiters eek by on more than minimum wage.
The cost is literally the same... Restaurants would just be upfront about it then.
You assume the restaurant's prices are connected to wages in any meaningful way. We're paying the wages. That's all food cost and profit.
Every time we go to Toronto we go to the same restaurant because they don't accept tips, they just pay their staff really well. Fantastic restaurant and I love supporting them.
Who the hell tips at McDonald's?
(this is a joke about price hiking and inflation)
I just don't tip. Period. Zero. Nada. Unless I have the initiative of doing it because I feel that the person did an excellent job.
Zero shame on not tipping.
Keep this garbage out of europe please. i see it popping up. I will absolutely refuse to tip a single goddamn soul at this point going forward.
