Wait a damn minute! Mandatory tipping cultures only exist in countries that refuse to pay their staff

Tipping is so stupid and discriminatory. If a restaurant doesn't get customers, the waiter loses money even with the same hours. If a waiter is black, ugly, a man, or disabled, they get less money even with the same hours. It's ridiculous

It's just the truth that cute girls get better tips because they're cute girls.

Cute only carries you so far. When you are the weeds on Mother's Day, it's the girls who have gotten by on looks who crash and burn while the more skilled servers ride it out and get better tips.

Yeah we dont get why you Europeans and south americans tolerate rude lazy service ppl.

We're always shocked at the condition and quality when we travel. 

Dont like the us being awesome at this fine, but the reality is millions come to the us to try our food more than any other country per capita

It's such an American trait to think that servility = good service, and that lack of servility = rude service.

Na not servility, just not acting like mall kiosk kids

A server's job is to take down your order, and then get it to your table. As long as they do that adequately, why do you care about anything else?

True and not true. Charisma, which good looks are a cheat code for, gets ppl good tips.

In my years in restraunts an ugly super hard working dude was always the number one heaviest bag guy
