tipping them shit as soon as they introduce themselves so they can give you the
special service and (hopefully) the special food you deserve.

  why don't you move to europe where they pay their servers a living wage and you only tip a little bit for EXCEPTIONAL service.






yes! it's make logical sense for me to pack up everything and leave behind all ive established to move to Europe to be with fellow non tippers. get fucking real!

did you expect everybody in this thread to tip? 

well i expect everybody to recycle their old florescent bulbs.  But if i run across someone who doesn't i def. will not call him an asshole and treat him as all of you are treating me for not doing so.

i swear some of you have the mental capacity of a lama!

why does a server get special treatment and not your mailman or meter reader. tip those guys!

a server is going to get their minimum wage regardless if i tip them or not, and if you dont, find a job somewhere else for fucks sake.  a server paying out of his/her own pocket to serve me is laughable!





It's pretty clear you're failing to understand that most servers aren't getting payed minimum wage plus tips, they're usually getting payed less than half of what the minimum wage is.

TIPS are how they make their money. Get that through your head.

Cooks and fucking mailmen or whatever other bullshit you mentioned get payed a decent hourly wage. THAT's why you don't tip them. Do you get it?
If a server got payed, say, $9.00 per hour, then yeah it would make sense not to tip them.
But they don't.

Maybe start asking questions.

More than a few people here have broke the news to you
that not all servers are getting payed minimum wage.
In fact, less than 3 dollars seems to be the average hourly wage.

If you're ever a regular customer somewhere expect shitty service in the future, I always remember the non-tippers & the good tippers who appreciate the service, & show my appreciation by sending a couple of free drinks their way throughout the night, non tippers..well I'm certainly not in any rush to get to their order.

i understand that.  i didn't write the laws on what to pay a waiter.  does a bartender get 2$ and hour also?  bartenders get tipped all the time.  if you dont like it, do something about it. dont depend on me to make your living.


all of you are being complete dicks to me because i dont tip, and i am the asshole?

Of course if that is the only interaction people have with you then they will judge your character based upon it.

Can someone answer this for me?

When you order food "to-go" from a restaurant, are you still expected to tip? I usually leave some sort of tip, but is it really necessary? Will they frown on you if you don't?

Tipping bartenders is worse than tipping waiters imo. I still do thought because they don't get paid well.

I don't think so.

I know I don't.

Me picking up food pretty much negates the time and attention the waitstaff would normally spend on me.

this is why i don't come on here, other than the fact that i am an asshole i guess.

the shroomery is the exact opposite of what it is portrayed to be.  i couldn't imagine what you guys would say to somebody who committed adultery.

I wasn't aware the Shroomery was ever portrayed as anything but a forum for people to trade tips on growing psychoactive mushrooms. :confused:
