How much should I tip?
Do you ever think about how much you should tip your waiter/waitress? A lot of people don't really tip that much, they figure that they don't have to because the waitress is just doing their job. Did you know that in Idaho waitresses don't have to be paid even minimum wage? They can be paid three dollars an hour because their bosses figure they'll make up the rest of it in tips. Maybe in really nice restaurants they could, but at smaller places like Wingers they make maybe sixteen or twenty dollars in tips as an average. People need to learn how to start tipping better. I think at the least you should tip twenty percent, so if you get a thirty dollar meal then tip six dollars, twenty dollar meal tip four, etc. If you can't afford to tip well, then why bother going to a restaurant like that in the first place?

This is so true and it should apply to ANY restaurant you visit. Make sure you have enough money to tip at least 20%. If you don't have enough extra money to tip well, then wait to visit a restaurant until you do have the money.
ReplyDeleteA word of thanks would mean something to a waitress/waiter so long as you tip them as well. If you were to give them a small or no tip and give the thanks, I don't think they would appreciate that fact, on the other hand if you tip well and don't say thanks they will be grateful because the money is a way of saying thanks.
