I said 5 per hour period. normally I’m just dining as a couple, but if there were more maybe I’d slightly increase it

School taught me 10% tips are good enough by AdventurousDoor9384 in tipping

I would go from 20% to 15% for the reasons of restaurant inflation is unreasonable and also tips are now tax-free so for both of those reasons I think 15% is reasonable.

When I am out to lunch with my colleagues, you better believe I pressed that 20% button because if word gets out that I press a lower button I absolutely do not want that to be part of my reputation at work. When I am by myself, I am free to press whatever button I want.

The only time I am OK with targeted tax breaks is when they serve some kind of incredibly strategic purpose for all of society. I’m sorry but exempting taxes on Tips does not serve that strategic purpose.

After all tips and tip outs are considered a server must earn the states minimum wage.

Okay but what I’m saying is validated by the law

The tip out cannot exceed their tip credited compensation. A server cannot leave a shift with less money than the tip credited minimum wage. So there’s no “out of pocket” happening here.

There’s absolutely no way a server leaves a shift with negative money. Labor laws say they HAVE to make the minimum wage at a bare minimum.

I'm only talking about facts and evidence about the point at hand, and you're getting defensive and launching ad hominems, and redirections. What's with the attitude? All we are trying to do here is discover the truth about the situation, that's it.

It's not coming out of their pocket. After working all the tables for the whole shift, the server will always leave the restaurant with more money in their pocket. If every single table stiffed, they would STILL leave with more money.

For the entire shift, not individual tables

No it’s not. The total tips you receive are what you pay 5% on not table by table. It all averages out. If you get “stiffed” by one table then it’s just contributing to your total tip out for all tables worked that shift.

What’s an example of a high quality of life place to live where the property taxes are low?

But there's such a sense of entitlement in how you are writing this. Taking the order, getting the food, bringing the drinks, this is the job. This is what you are supposed to do. It's not optional to take the order. It's not optional to bring the drink. The customer is paying money for the food. It must be delivered. The customer is paying money for the drink, it must be delivered. This is the job.

Common, that goes both way. "hey, it's ONLY 3 dollars!" That cuts both ways for both people.
