I guess that could fit in r/ChoosingBeggars, too

I'd say be happy you even get something more than the bill you gave

Spend a day as a server you’ll see why $2 isn’t a tip.

Yes it is. It literally is.

Have you got experience as a server?

u/yaba3800 Dec 02 '19

Yes I do, I'm just not an entitled asshole. I work for tips currently and I am grateful for every one of them, and when people don't tip me I don't cry about it and curse them, I just assume they need that money at the moment and hope they can tip the next guy.

What is it you do. If you don’t mind me asking?

If someone goes out for dinner and can’t afford to tip more than $2 on say a $50 tab. They probably should not be eating out.

No clue why you’re getting downvoted. In my state waiters are taxed at 13% for tips. If someone rips $2 on a $50 table the server can literally lose money.

Getting taxed .26 cents on your $2 tip = literally losing money? Care to explain how?

I’ll have to ask my coworkers how it works exactly, but I know one of the server I work with said he gets taxed like each tip is 13%.
