Cheap and ungrateful would be if I ordered the food and said I wasn't paying for it at all.reppedAnd you just a cheap *** that doesn't associate with social norms. That simple. At least you rep it.
all it comes down to... we're in america, our employers expect people to do what 90% of folks do(some better than others, but c'est la vie)
our government down to city and state levels have, in many cases built that expected behavior into their legislation, with wage regulation etc.
if you dont want to tip, make your own food and clean up after yourself.
OP was asking about how much they should tip. all this "i don't tip" stuff is way cheap, and ungrateful. I would certainly not admit it if i was a bad/non tipper... See how many second dates you go on acting that way in front of your date
Just cuz you think tipping is some unwritten given invisibly included in to the laws of economics of this country doesn't make it so. It just means you're another person that has no problem doing things because you think you're suppose to do them without actually thinking about why you're doing it.
I mean seriously which is the better situation, every single person tipping different amounts to these ppl you feel should be tipped or their employers raising their minimum wage to match their standard of living? Which is actually the better solution?
