ITT: Archaic dining etiquette

without basic etiquette you unironivally end up like the Pizza fag webem, it's a fact.
Refusing to do things "well" just because "omg fuck rules dad" only spiral down.

D-delete this

She’s 14 I think but it’s that cash me outside girl

Ah, too old.

>Archaic dining etiquette

going out to restaurants to eat

She might be old by 25 at this pace

>tipping is a bad custom!
Studies already show that a server who goes out of their way to perform their best service makes way more than a server who makes a standardized wage, thus causing the waiting industry to become bloating with shitty service if tipping becomes disbarred.
Performance based wages is a win for all parties; the customer who receives excellent service, the server who receives additional wages based on performance, and the employer who is able to provide employment easier.

The only ones who protest this are incompetent workers and selfish idiots like yourselves who believe "tipping is bad".

what studies

>live in civilised country
>pay more money
>get good food and service

>live in America
>pay more just for good service

Except I don't receive excellent service.
I get shitty service, and if I withhold my tip (as I should be able to in a "performance based wage" system, or else there's no point to the system) I get chased out into the parking lot by some screaming she-boon.

Placing your napkin over your right knee when dining.

That's because it's supposed to go over your left.

And not to mention a lot of tips go unreported, and therefore, untaxed.

>I get chased out into the parking lot by some screaming she-boon.
That's a perfect opportunity to explain how you chose not to tip for the reasons I'm sure you could provide. I've done that on multiple occasions before.

Hell, last month I was at a local diner that I used to frequent. I left zero tip. When the employee was ringing up my card she muttered under her breath something about "assholes not tipping". I explained that I am a frequent customer, and I usually tip very well. I pointed out to her that the reason why I left zero tip was because the wait was excessive (I timed it at 40 minutes), the wrong food was brought out, and the staff was very inattentive about refilling my drink. It turns out she was the manager. She apologized, comped the entire meal, and offered me a discount next time.

Here's another juicy tidbit for ya.

Okay?
Like I'm glad your server had a decent head on her, but mine just kept screeching about how wypipo rayciss and tried to keep me from getting into my car.

The only way to get decent service from a sheboon is to have them work for tips.

Did you even try to explain yourself? Or did you just keep your mouth shut?

I got as far as "I didn't leave a tip because"
Good reminder of why I'd rather go to take-out places or fast food where tipping isn't expected. Fuck casual dining.

Praying before a meal.

I seriously hope you guys haven't stopped this.

everyone but sandmonkeys like you, Abdullah

I guess tipping is why the US is such a top destination for its world-renowned gastronomy

youtu.be/PmzKx2jOflU

i do that when i'm done eating. idon't even care, i was always the manners fag in my family and now i'm done with it

Itadakimasu!

With the current state of women, i would consider paying for any of their shit archaic.

Buy em a drink sure, but any form of real money spent on a roastie that you're not dating is a total waste and will continue to inflate their egos.

>blacks criticizing how other people tip

oh boy am i laffin

I’m not religious and I don’t hang out with religious people except when I visit my family, so why would I? I do bow my head out of respect when I eat with people who pray but otherwise I don’t really participate.

t. virgin

Standing when a woman leaves or joins the table. It's intimidating.

>leave tip on table in cash
>always write "table" in the tip section when paying
>still get shit even though I tip very well

Is there anything worse?

The only tardgarglers that still do this in the US are loony tunes fundamentalist christians in West Jeebusville, AL, lol.

neither of these studies support the claim you made

my grandfather insists I kiss him as thanks for the dinner, it's weird and gross.

Service a la Francais

call the cops

this kills the amerilard

I don't see you providing any counter claim, so...

wat

My family still does it and they're liberal as shit. It's kind of weird coming home and having to remember to do it.

pseudoscience overload

>family still does it and they're liberal as shit
Don't worry, they are almost certainly praying to Satan, Lord of Zionists.

Post-dining parlour games, group sing-songs, charades etc

BEGONE
T H O T

>a lot of tips go unreported, and therefore, untaxed.
this is why I always tip using a credit card. If these poor fucking retards are going to try to guilt me into paying their wages for them, then they can bloody well pay taxes like the rest of us.

"waaah we're poor we need everybody to chip in a dollar so we can eat"
"but we don't want to pay the taxes that pay for schools, roads, hospitals, etc"
fuck off morons

except when a manlet does it

Never heard of it.

The pic related in OP

PayScale pulled data from 15,000 restaurant workers who took the PayScale Salary Survey in the last two years to find out what the people who prepare and serve your breakfast, lunch and dinner really earn.

The average restaurant worker earns a base salary of $9.90 an hour, plus $3.40 per hour in tips, giving them a median total salary of $13.30 per hour. That means that 25 percent of their total incomes come from tips. Most restaurant workers say they work part-time, and report working 31.7 hours per week.

"French waiters are paid, on average, 1,495 euros (£1,200; $2,000) a month, only a shade more than the statutory minimum wage, and they usually expect some sort of tip.

For many waiters, tips are still a significant source of income. Bryan Bouchayer has been waiting tables full time since he was 15 and is now at renowned cafe-restaurant La Palette.

"On a good day I get 200 euros in tips," says Bryan, elegantly attired in the traditional French waiter's garb of black tie, starched white shirt, black waistcoat, black trousers and long white apron.
"On a bad day it's 70, 60, 50." But La Palette is good for tips."

A seperate menu for the lady diner without the prices, so she'll not know how much you'll be spending on her.

When the blood feast begins, the polite diner mustn't start the satanic incantations until everyone is seated.

...

i am in the uk and get £25 every fortnight in tips if im lucky

>"On a good day I get 200 euros in tips,on a bad day it's 70, 60, 50."
nigga, if I didn't pay tax, i could easily live off 50 € a day. I'd have enough for everything I have to pay for, insurance, and still would have money left to go out drinking. wtf? is he complaining? he gets than on top his regular salary, tax-free

>i am in the uk and get £25 every fortnight in tips if im lucky

I’ve never worked in the food industry (machinist here) but every week my buddies and I go to the local bar and watch football (i.e. handegg) and this past Sunday, there were six of us and each guy dropped $5.00 or so in tips for the q.t. waitress, so she made between $24-$30 in tips just on our table and the joint was pretty busy.

I mean, let's go with the absolute minimum, assuming he only works mon-fri;
250€ for rent, that's a week's work, 50€ per week for food is more than enough, that's another week's work, 100€ for insurance, lets say another 150 for internet, phone bills and power/water/housekeeping stuff... so in three weeks he's paid for all his expenses for a month, then he gets 250€ on top of that. he could literally live off the bare minimum tips alone.

pretty sure that's not dining etiquette anywhere..

Is his name Roy Moore

I would fuck the shit out of her, if you know what I mean.

When I was a waiter (in Australia) an american tipped me $5. I'd never been tipped before and I was taken aback, and also felt bad because my hourly rate was something like $28.

5 dollarydoos is only like 50 cents USD, right? Shoulda called him a nigger

This thread

Forget the tipping so much, if it's less than $40 a plate there's no point having a server at all. Your high school retard "waiter" has nothing to offer my dining experience. Just let me come up and grab the tray like I'm at a fast food place.

I'm not catching your drift

You're acting like OP didn't wait until the thread caught a little steam and then samefagged the beginning of a tipping argument.

>french waiters
>tips

What? have I been lied to? I thought America was the only ones who did this and that's why everyone made fun of us

Fake story. Managers can't take tips, they're exempt staff.

And if a manager was waiting on you, it means they were floored to the gills with tables.

Is that the "catch me outside" girl?

"leaked" porno when?

Europoors are just mad because the got better service at an Orlando ihop than anything fancy at home before heading out to Disney to get sunburnt ankles as grown man wearing female capri pants

how has nobody seconded this? my family still gets on my ass about it when I visit them. absolutely retarded practice

It’s makes you look like a gross fat fuck
Also body odor from raising your hammy arms

Ewww

Are you boy or grill?

Jesus Christ her music is just godawful, what the fuck.

if they chase you into the parking lot, chase them back into the restaurant and get loud as fuck about the piss poor service.

Try taking a bath next time weirdo.

girl(male)

I'm Argentinian and tipping is a custom here.

Me I should clarify It's not new, it's always been this way

>Dismissing arbitrary dining rules means you're rebelling against your dad
Nice projection.

>Studies show that tipping is good cause if you tip you get better service
Wow, really makes me think. This circular logic totally sold me on the goodness of tipping.

Btw, I'm pretty sure that standardized wages for waiters are a thing because it's supposed to be a standardized job. I only expect of any waiter to bring me my food in time without fucking up my order.

test

are you retarded? his job is to put a plate on my table, he doesn't cook the food. Why would I want him to be be a pest arbitrarily making his job harder just to make a show? Fuck waiters.

Garcon! Cafe!
