no generally they are paid WELL below min. wage.
If you do not tip and continue to go the same restaurant, the staff WILL fuck with your food and you will get shitty service and never understand that its your shitty tipping thats getting you such shitty service.

I know this from experience, I was a server for a few years.

If we had someone that tried to be a 'regular' yet tipped under 10% every time, lets just say we made sure he/she didn't come back to our restaurant more than a few times.

You tip 10% or less consistently at the same spot, your going to get 10% service.

Funny thing is, you could always tell the 10% or less tippers by their actions.

They try to make you look bad either by drowning themselves with whatever drink they got in hopes that they will get an 'empty' cup and blame it on you. They will be very demanding about things (probably again in an attempt to make you look bad in order to validate such shitty tip) and will seem to not be enjoying themselves for whatever reason.

every, fucking, time.

Have you no reading comprehension whatsoever? I don't live in the middle of bumfuck America. Our laws are different. There's only three provinces here where gratuity workers are paid any differently then the rest and I don't reside in one of them. Hence why we literally have no tipping culture.

Even in America, if servers' tips plus their shitty pay don't add up to minimum, the restaurant is "required" to pay them the difference, but I doubt they ever do.

I find it hilarious that america-haters from the outback will lie about things they have no idea about in attempt to slander the name of the great nation. That's libel.

Hey Webster, they got you pretty good as a child, huh? I can see it now, you a precious little kid, hand on your chest, eyes filled with stars, pledging your loyalty to the Flag

Also on topic: here you tip the waiter (a little), and the money usually gets split with the kitchen staff.
It's a way to show apriciation of the food and service, but not mandatory.

And here's me making fun of Americans, like a Dutchman smoking weed on a bicycle.
In laughing about stereotypes I became... a stereotype.

So yes, the US COULD whipe us all out in minutes, but that wouldn't be much of an achievment. I think Belgium has a better equiped militairy then we do.
