Good

acstually tipping at least 10% is considered normal here, anyone who doesn't might be considered a skank, scoundrel, or skrub. I always do, I know it impreses m'ladies

No it isn't, occasionally if you go somewhere fancier or have really good service, but just for going out you pay the number on the bill.

t.Bong from up North

found the por

It doesn't really matter if you're poor or not when all your houses have already been bought up by Russians with more money than most African countries.

It doesn't really matter if you're poor or not

lmao how por r u

Here's your 9 McNugget meal. That'll be £6.49 plus tip.

holy shit you guys tip the cashier ?

Lol, por.

??? im not british so im asking if brits tip cashiers just like us americans

Only American brands, as they're allowed to pay their staff below the minimum wage as they're 'Apprentice Sandwich Artists' or 'Apprentice Fry Cook'.

Sky is blue, water is wet, yuropoor is cheap

/u/heavybums is it just impossible for you to grasp the concept of different countries having disparities in their economic structures or what

/u/heavybums. “HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT FOR YOU. HATE. HATE.”

I'm a bot, bleep, bloop. Someone has linked to this thread from another place on reddit:

• [/r/udub] Good job r/udub , we made it to the front page of r/drama

Gotta point out this is in /r/udub, aka the University of Washington, a college based in Seattle.

Seattle has the infamous $15 minimum wage, which means that even though the "yeah you can pay waiters below minimum wage" law remains in full effect, Seattle servers earn a minimum of $10 per hour without tips.

The $2-3 per hour wage people like to throw out when shaming people for not tipping this ain't.

In addition to this, most restaurants near the University are self-service, i.e. order at the counter and get your own water, plus bus your own table when you're done.

I can't think of a single establishment on the Ave that actually offers full service. Pretty much everything is self-serve or that weird hybrid model where you put a number on your table to have your food brought out to you.

where you put a number on your table to have your food brought out to you.

Like the chinese place University Kitchen

You're talking about the teriyaki place next to Schulzty's, right? On that first block north of Campus Parkway with the bank? Is University Kitchen another name change? In my day it was University Teriyaki.

I occasionally miss that place and then remember all the food poisoning and decide to get my munchies elsewhere.

Yep they renamed it like two years ago

Schulzty's

Shultzy's.

It's Korean, by the way.

Fuck off

There are a few, but you're right. Almost entirely self-serve in some way.

Yeah... there are tons...

Since you mentioned Shultzy's in another comment, just pointing out Shultzy's fits under "full service".

I'd say something about an exception proving the rule but I honest-to-god just forgot about Shultzy's (including how to spell it apparently)

I get your point, certainly. Almost everywhere on the Ave is a self-serve-ish model.

Everyone misspells Shultzy's. It "should" have a 'c' in it, based on how most German is spelled, but it's based on the owner's last name.

Source: I work there.

Costas, Jewel of India, Shalimar, Shultzy's, Thai 65, Cultivate, The District, Thaiger Room, Samir's, Cedars**, Finn McCools... that's just off the top of my head.

yes, they have a buffet, but you also can order off of the menu. *yes, technically not on the ave, but close enough to count.

Just to nit pick, you are not allowed to tip at Cultivate.

Good point!

I think that means you just didn't think very hard lol

Shultzy's, Big Time, Finns.

Then what the shit are you tipping for?

True.

Working full time at $15/hour is also not enough to afford a studio apartment in Seattle though.

Yes, but Seattle's real estate market becoming increasingly Californian in scope does not stop the linked discussion from being dishonest about how bad things are for servers without tips.

Pretty much anyone who made poor life choices but isn't willing to have roommates has to live Eastside these days.

I don't remember advocating a dishonest discussion.

Ahh yes, I enjoy being told that I've made bad life choices because I can't afford to live in one of the most expensive parts of one of the most expensive cities in America.

I don't see you anywhere in the linked thread so I'm not sure where I accused you of being dishonest.

That said, if you attended as school as good as the UW and wound up waiting tables I have zero compunctions labeling your life choices as "bad".

Yeah... I'm a full time student that works around 45 hours a week and I have to share a studio apartment. I don't have any debt, I don't have a car, I live a frugal life, and I still need financial help from my parents.

Probably relax a bit before labeling other people's lives.

Hold up, what?? Have you not considered current students working to support themselves by waiting tables? And going to a "good school" doesn't open doors for everyone

Doesn't his statement imply the waiting tables part happened after going to the UW, not during or before?

Do note, it's not $15 for most people in Seattle, it is $15 if you work for a company of more than 300 employees

I don't tip. I expect my bill to cover my servers wage

u/heavybums, but it doesn't, you dolt. If restaurants were to pay servers a real wage, menu prices would be higher. So while you think you're taking some sort of high ground on behalf of America's service industry, you're really just getting your food subsidized by the person you think is being treated unjustly.

but it doesn't, you dolt.

Well then, just another reason not to go to restraunts for me. That and I'm piss poor ofc.

Tbh, this would be the actual way to take a moral stand against tipping culture. In most American cities, you'd be stuck with Panera as your best option, so it's easier just to stiff the person bringing you your food and drinks.

fuck ur gay little tipping system americans

I mean as someone who works for tips I agree but being an ass and not tipping when you're supposed to isn't gonna fix the "gay little system."

i only tip if i have a male server

Affirmative action in action!
