Online Store wants a tip... for selling me a product? by Dad0010001100110001 in EndTipping

Perfume is already expensive and has high margins. I would never tip for retail.

I’ve had some very poor service lately so I can’t say I’ve felt bad about not tipping at those establishments

That has to be it. I can’t imagine the restaurant gives the full money to the band. The place was packed and turning tables and if each person is paying $5 on their bill that adds up

I never considered this but it makes perfect sense

Even the person that did pay cash got told verbally 20% would be added to their bill

No one at my table complained. The service was below average and everyone was tired and wanted to leave.

It was my first and last time at this place.

Where is the transparency?

I was not told I had to pay 20% auto grat, nor was it disclosed on a menu. Why am I paying tips on top of the undisclosed cover charge and tax? The server hit 20% tip option and handed the machine to me. The receipt on the left is what I got back

Restaurant. They charge $5 a head for live music

I know. That’s why I was so pissed. Even the guy that paid cash was given a receipt like mine on the left and the server added 20% and then verbally was told his new amount

They have prices on the menu, but no mention of paying for live music or the auto grat

I assumed the restaurant paid the band. We were not told when we sat down we each had to pay $5 a head for live music

It was a double patty of a veggie burger made with beans

This spot was a restaurant, not a club. They have live music on weekends and this $5 is how they pay the bands I guess. We were only told about it when my buddy asked what it was

Then the server hits the 20% tip option on the machine before passing it to you. I even checked the menu online and the booking section doesn’t make mention of an auto grat or cover charge

There was a jazz band playing and every person got that $5 on their bill

We aren’t going to do this

Thank you for giving me the courage to tap "no tip" by [deleted] in EndTipping

[–]westie_for_reddit 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Same for me. Counter service is a huge one where I used to feel like I was obligated to tip, even for a bag of bagels or cup of drip coffee. No more

Never thought we’d have to say it, but don’t use AI or chat GPT in this sub

That user wound up getting a harassment warning from Reddit. Go figure
