Go back and get that tip for nothing and never go back

you stingy fucks should all learn to cook
check your cc online, if the transaction was never settled, the tip may not have ever gone through. You said you checked your acct, does it show two transactions, one for the higher tipped amount and a refund for the lower non-tipped amount? If so, yes, you tipped for the privilege of not getting a pizza. But I would go in to the store with that info, just on principle, because that's even more fucked than a lot of the other stuff in here.Quote:

From my limited experience, in Austria, you had to badger them them 2 to 3 times to get the bill.Quote:

Tips are for service. Taking an order and handing me a paper bag or cup is not really service in the traditional sense.
If I do get quality meals to go, that’s 10%. The cashier and cooks can split it. The other 10% would have been server that brought me food and drink and made me feel special.
But a coffee? To go? Fuck off.
PS. Most states have lower minimum wages for servers. That’s for a reason. Stupid though it may be. You can’t pay a line cook or even a backwaiter that same shitty wage.
Silverthorne Friday concert, employees (town?) at the canned alcohol tent handing you cans of beer or cider or seltzer at $10/can. How much would like to tip? 15%? 20%? or 25%? I'm going to give you $2.50 for handing a me a fucking can? How about ZERO
It’s fucked. If they took 3 seconds and poured you a draft would you tip? Or if they poured the can in a glass? At a bar you would probably tip and not think twice but at a tent it’s different?Quote:

Min and max. Doesn't matter if the beer is $4 or $14. Dollar a beer is a fair tip.Quote:

Just so you know I too do the dollar a beer. I feel I have to explain things now in here. At a bar, they get their 20%.Quote:

Hence the reliance on an iPad and digital currency to pay the bill these daysQuote:

Had to manage the float a bit carefully early in the night, but the tip glass filled much more reliably.
Betcha most servers these days don’t have a clue what a float even is.

Ha, those days are gone as far as I know. But I remember $1 pitchers on Friday afternoons at the Library in Missoula back in the 80s. I'd tip a buck on a dollar pitcher.Quote:

I’d tip $13
But if i sat there and paid for each single beer in cash I’d tip $1 per beer.
Hmmm, I just found a way to save $5….
We've been suffering from serious beerflation post pandemic. Typical pint in this town is $7 plus.
Yeah...I've pretty much thrown percentages out the window when it comes to tipping these days. It's too skewed and has nothing to do with the actual service provided.Quote:
