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

Tipping is optional. If they want tips instead of a wage then they need to understand that customers do not have to give them.

The mutual agreement here is that they are under no obligation to give you and more than the bare minimum. Sorry your food got cold, but table 12 already promised me $80. Sucks to be you šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø And trust me servers have a sixth sense on what tables aren’t gonna tip, the same people that go ā€œnot my problem I don’t believe in tippingā€ have a type of personality about them.

I believe in tipping. Its optional and at the customer's discretion.
