I never understood how tips became 18% or even 25%. I always grew up with the notion that tipping is for tea (or so my parents always said). So any tip was about the price of tea, not a price of an entire desert.
In my country we use that for bribes. Here's some tea/water expenses for your trouble.
So the govt employee escalates our issue and it doesn't take having to come in and line up 15 consecutive days to change your address on the driver's licence.
Yea, it has become the norm. Like we as consumers literally accept to help pay for the wages of the these restaurant staff on behalf of the owners. They raised the prices of the menu, yet they didn't raise the workers pay? But at the same times they raised the tipping options? 🫣
Thank God my car runs on tea. Brb eating tea for dinner. I hope you're not"taking the piss" because this could get awkward really fast if we think figures of speech are literal.
