move the decimal point of the total bill one to the left. double it.

do americans really do this?

...

I've never done this, but I may start. That simplifies things. Thanks, kind user.

...

i do this but add the necessary change so the bill comes out to an even dollar amount

...

To calculate the tip, I just divide the bill by itself, then subtract 1 from that number.

So 20%?

...

only cu/ck/s tip

why would you tip for a service that you already paid for

Calculate 10-20% depending on service and tip that. Occasionally tip more for fantastic service.

$20.00 bill, $0.00 tip
genius

You retarded? It'd be 4 bucks.

underrated

oh yeah I was looking to the right of the decimal point hahahhaha I'm retarded c:

...

I don't get burgerland's obsession with tipping.
Here we just pay our staff a decent wage.

Neck yourself

>tipping
do americans really do this

Kek'd

>knows the greatest tip in life is that a penny saved is a penny earned
exhaled vociferously

$5 bill under the salt shaker.

no exceptions.

Richfag here. Literally whatever I do not end up spending. I take out $50, spend like $25 on a meal, leave the other 25 as a tip. I dunno. I am not a dick.

Pfff I tip like 200 bucks even for a glass of water.

>I dunno. I am not a dick.
you kind of are though because you're increasing the expectation of tips which has a two-pronged effect. it lowers the overall satisfaction of the waiter because they usually won't be tipped as well. and slowly increases the expected tip amount, making it harder for others to go out as often.

I never tip, I stand their waiting for my change no matter the amount.

I'm glad Uber has become more popular because paying cash in a taxi while drunk was the odd occasion that I'd sometimes let my guard down.

>order pizza
>total comes to $16
>give the delivery boy a $20 and tell him to keep the change
Literally the only time I will ever tip.

OP here, Pizza guys are fine since their job is dangerous as fuck. I just hate tipping roastie waitresses.

that's not even tipping it's called being a lazy fuck

Say you are getting takeout. A pizza for instance. It's not getting delivery. you're ordering it in the restaurant and going back to pick it up when it's ready.

When it's ready, you pay with debit, or a card of some sort and the machine asks if you want to a tip.

Do you tip?

yes...

nah
not tipping on takeout orders is completely acceptable, as it should be

Since we're on a thread about tipping: What the hell do I at a Kaiten? I have seen everything on the internet from tipping 0 to tipping 20%. The one thing I love about traveling outside the US is that price posted = price whenever you are buying anything.

>rich
>"takes out" cash
Either lying or over 50 years old. Regardless, gtfo

>tipping
you lame ass donkeys

Not that user but I work in a cash business and so often have a lot of cash on me, use that rather than a credit card.

I still use cash a lot. I drink in bars pretty often and cash just works better in a bar.

In the US? What is still a cash business other than drug dealing?

>being assblasted that I do not like having my card on me
I would rather not have to go through the hassle of calling the bank to get my debit card killed in the event it were stolen.

I own some parking garages.

I just match the tax value and round to the nearest dollar.

Yeah it makes a lot more sense to carry a wad of cash and have to deal with withdrawing money than to make a 2 minute phone call in the rare event you lose your wallet

Eh. To each their own. I just have less of an issue seeing someone take $25 or $50 than my debit card though.

So money laundering

>card gets stolen
>call your bank and report it, they refund any fraudulent charges

>cash gets stolen
>byebye cash

Are you pretending to be retarded or what?

I make about a thousand a week selling firewood. I’ve only gotten a check maybe three times in the past year.

Cash based businesses are the one true way to keep what you make.

>casually tip remaining amount of cash out of $50
>surprised I am not upset about losing $50
Are you pretending to have bad reading comprehension or what?

Like those guys who just park on the side of the road somewhere with a truck full of firewood? Didn't think they made $1k a week but then again I live in the south so it's rarely even cold enough

Tap and pay leaves too much of an information trail. I'd rather just pay cash where I can so my husband doesn't know I've been out drinking in a bunch of different bars on the weekend.

Southerner currently living in Montana here.

Firewood is a huge deal in this area and an easy way to make a few hundred in an afternoon. You could easily make a grand a week.

>rich people that don't care about losing even a small amount of cash
I'll never understand this, I'd be just as pissed if it was 50 dollars or 50k. I'm still out on money regardless.

Yeah essentially. I live in a small Oregon town. I park a trailer or two at my local tire shop, where it’s easily viewable from the main road. I sell a cord for 150, and during the winter here i can easily sell three cords a day if I have the wood.

Are americans this retarded? Just tip, like, 5$ or whatever do you consider a reasonable amount. What the fuck does meal price have to do with how much extra cash will the waitress earn?
Or better yet, don't tip at all, they are paid to do their job like everyone else.

This sounds like some proper redneck shit.

Disclaimer: not an American.

I don't think Americans pay their waitstaff, or if they do it is something like 2.50$ an hour. Technically if the waitress doesn't make at least min wage from tips, the employer is meant to make up the difference; this never happens because a waitress will be fired for asking.

That’s the goal. I actually just moved here a couple years ago from rural San Diego, California. Fuck the city life. Fell into selling firewood and seafood processing. Trying to save money to open up a restaurant on the docks.

I tip when people provide really good service.

pay your income tax, you fuck

I usually tip at least 25% if the bill is under like 150. I work at a better restaurant in a very affluent town so I try to be especially kind to my servers. I don't work full time anymore so i try not to think about how much i can get from people unless its obvious they are worth/demand a lot of attention. I believe that my service can be worth up to 20% when I can be good. Most nights i get that or more on average.

I don’t tip because I don’t believe in paying a kikes slaves for him

I tip 15% regardless of service quality unless it's really bad, in which case I don't tip.

I tip at restaurants (usually about 10% to a round figure), I don't tip delivery drivers

fixed

Chad sounds like a dick

>Leave cash totalling about 40% of my bill strewn around the table
>Run for the exit screaming "Stay away from the racetrack!" or some other earthy nugget of wisdom
I figure these restaurant people make enough money, what the really crave is excitement and a story to tell their grandchildren about.

I don't tip.
I live in a first world country where the waitresses aren't grossly underpaid.
It should be the responsibility of the restaurant owner to pay their staff, not the responsibility of customers.

I never tip when alone, but when in a group whatever the tip is I say it isn't enough. this both makes me look good and makes having to tip at all less painful as I can enjoy other people being annoyed. no one wants to expose themselves as a poorfag.

>I can enjoy other people being annoyed
Why don't you dine with people you like?

>Implying there wouldn't be a shitstorm because now roastie waitresses make the same as a dishwasher

>Chad doesn't tip
>Yet treats the entire kitchen staff to 5-course meals

How is that not a tip

They do where I live.
Might even earn more.

Paying the serfs enough to live off of is Socialism, user.

>looking for logic in a glorified rage comic
These shits are 9gag tier.

Can someone explain once and for all if it's even possible to tip the chefs? If I walked back there after my meal and handed a $5 to each guy in a white coat or whatever, would they refuse it?

I've heard some people say that the tips get split with the back of the house but that doesn't seem common. If the food is fucking excellent but my waiter is an asshole, then how am I supposed to reward the chef?

"I don't want this. Send it back"

round up the bill to the nearest multiple of 5 or 10 depending on how nice i feel. If the service was even remotely poor then i dont top.

I live in europe though.

>would they refuse it?
would you refuse it? If its a busy restaurant they might be annoyed since youre disturbing them but i cant imagine theyd refuse your money.
You'd probably look like an autist though.

Depends on the delivery boy.

Here's what I do: Ask for the manager. Explain that you were really happy with your meal and you want to tip the cooks specifically.

what are the virgin/chad versions of going to bars?

Yeah, taxis and barbers have recently started doing this thing where instead of giving you the change, they ask how much change you want back. I never tip cab drivers because they're all awful.

You could just ask the waitress what their policy is. I have a friend who's a dishwasher and even he gets a cut of the tips.

>fantastic service
Like, a happy ending?

Mr. Varga?

Boi my orders come out to 19.75 and I too that cunt a quarter I had one guy literally force the change in my hand I was like lol thanks bro

Nice.

If the place pools tips for all of the staff, I kick 20-30% (depending upon the food, the service, the general atmosphere) towards the tip.

Otherwise, 15-18%. I've only ever not tipped twice--once at a diner that served me a wilted salad on a steaming hot plate fresh from their dish washer (got up and left without a word), and another time when the waitress was completely bored and indifferent. Food was fine; I stopped by the front door on my way out to inform the headwaiter of her behavior. He said that this was not the first instance someone had complained about her and added that he'd pass it along to the manager.

What should one tip a weed delivery guy?

Back kitchen staff, not greedy servers who do the least work.

This is a mathfag thing, and it's dumb. I've argued with people before, the correct way to do this is to divide by 5.

You don't sound like an autistic faggot, and everyone WOW's at your ability to communicate math clearly.

DIVIDE BY 5 = 20% ALWAYS AND FOREVER

50% of the price of the meal, then double it, only the tip goes to the entire restaurant via cash register at the front instead of just one person.

wtf kind of magic is this

thank you user

The virgin put it in on my card lite beer
The chad shots all around paid in cash

20% = 1/5 user. This is some basic shit.

Some people find it hard to divide by 5 in their head. In that case, just take 10% and divide that in half.

I once dated a girl who insisted on calculating the tip out, using longhand math, to the exact penny. Yes, she was seriously OCD.

I do this with food, only when the server was good to me or I go there at least 2 times per month. I'm a fairly memorable person, so I sometimes get free drinks. With purely beer or alcohol related orders it will always and forever be a dollar per drink tip. People remember me, and BOOM extra attention at the bar and some slick banter on the side. I also never sign my name. I just draw something cool or something silly with words like a dog with finger guns saying "the longer donger is ever stronger". Being entertained makes servers happy. They remember that shit.

Just round it to the nearest bill denominations that I happen to have and only because I don't want to deal with small change. I live in a country where tipping is not really mandatory.

>can't divide by 5
>average single dinner is anywhere from 15-30 at average restaurants
High end places just suggest a tip or have the circle your amount thing

I always tip 5 dollars for whatever as long as the server is good. More for more expensive meals/restaurants.

>tip 20% everywhere I've ever been
>never gotten anything free
>never had a waitress remember me
>hate tipping now, just do it because of social norms
