yea I work at whole foods seasonally when I'b back from school last christmas eve I was taking this ladies groceries to her car and she gave me a 100 dollar bill  at first I was like I cant accept this, but she insisted that went towards a half ounce of nugs 
anyways I tip generously usually because I feel for the people. obviously if the service is bad or something along those lines I dont usually between 15-20% when going to dinner, and 10-15% for delivery
why do I tip a waiter and not the person working at McDonald's? because waiters make below minimum wage, its how they make a living yo

Wow I would not have not accepted it lol. As soon as it touched my hand it would be in my pocket "Thanks lady!" then run off and show it off to all my co-workers.
But yea it is not my fault they CHOOSE to work for minimum wage. Why should I have to pay the penalty because they chose a job that pays that low. Most waiters or waitress I know work as that JUST for the tips. They expect the costumer to make up for their low wages.
If they made minimum wages and zero tips there would be no waiters at all.

yep...that would be me - I refuse to tip
I think it's bullshit that companies are giving people less then minimum wage because of it, and that they're expecting their customers to pay their employees salaries for them like that
a tip is *supposed to be* a sort of 'attaboy' for a job well done...NOT an expected necessity

this kind of argument will never get resolved, people feel differently I also just feel like I'm making someones day a little better when I tip, which in turn makes me a little brighter sounds kind of stupid but for some reason it really doesn't bother me to tip, I just factor it in before I go out to eat the only time I ever skimp is for deliver, which is usually when I'm poor and I have to pay tax + a delivery fee on top of it

I have a cheat sheet card in my wallet that tells me how much to tip for a given meal, but I usually just round up anyway. I give money to homeless people on the street, so why not give a little extra money to a waiter who's actually providing a service? However, sometimes I'm low on 5's and 1's, so I just give what I can.

I heard they automatically take out the tip for delivering when you order online. Is that true?

No idea if that's true I delivered for a small family owned place but if you pay w/ credit you can specify the tip amount, I assume you can online too.

hey just some fifty years ago when the vikings imported black people from niggeria the blacks used coconuts and monkey paws as currency, now they are using forks in restaurants, democracy kicks ass, but do you expect them to learn the ultimate democratic custom: paying someone for the job they are already getting paid for? NO!

i had a friend who did the exact same thing. delivering pizzas for a few years pretty much made him hate black people. he even quit his job when his store started delivering to an all black university. it's not even a racist thing either because one of the black drivers quit too. black people are just shitty tippers more often than not and everybody who's ever worked tip job is aware of that.
btw the whole "no one ever taught me to tip" thing is the dumbest excuse i've ever heard. i say if no one "taught" you, then maybe you should take it upon yourself to learn what is normal expected behavior in this society and start acting accordingly. seriously, just because no one ever gave you a handbook about tipping when you were five doesn't mean that you are exempt from tipping for the rest of your life.

I agree and that's what I meant I learned what was expected and now I apply it but before I left Mississippi I had no clue. I'd always though since I was little that $1 was a normal tip but I learned otherwise and now I apply it if the service is good. I refuse to tip someone who's pissy just because every other black person they've dealt with didn't tip well and assumes I'll do the same.
