It never occurred to me that I should be tipping for take-out food, but then one day the bar tender at my fave b&g told me I was supposed to tip, so I started tipping a couple bucks.

Now I wonder if I should be tipping the chick at the Burger King drive through window. I mean, she hands me food, too.

I usually tip them a dollar for taking my order if I'm picking it up (more if it's a big order). If I eat in I tip 20% or more.

I usually tip about 10% on pick up, 20% for eating in. Sometimes I don't tip on pick up orders. w/e

There are reasons for this but this is a tipping thread so I'm just going to post a link to an anime blowjob gif instead

I'm Australian so gently caress tipping. It's their job to make my food. Also I'm not lazy, just rich enough to have other people make my food for me. And I didn't get rich by wasting money paying people to do things that someone else is already paying them to do.

ISILDUR's ERR
the whole tipping system is genuinely retarded, sell something for a fair price and pay your employees fair wages,

who would guess that a system where managers can control your tips, waiters and waitresses can pocket tips, and then some places still try to split them up at the end after individuals have stolen from the pot could go wrong?

and who could guess when the country is in tough times, or just when cheap people exist, they can choose not to tip, and then the appropriate response is to...commit a bio hazard crime or write angry words and punish your facebook friends?

just pay the cocksuckers 15 an hour and stop asking for me to estimate how much i enjoyed the experience of waiting 90 minutes for reheated frozen food and paying 6 dollars for someone to open a 1 dollar beer for me

It's nice to reward good service and have the ability to pay less for poor service.

tipping is the worst thing ever. we should all just stop. everyone in the country. at once. it will suck for the servers for a short time but they will be happier in the long run and so will you. travel out of the US and see how wonderful and freeing not tipping is.

tips in restaurants are for waiters and delivery driving motherfuckers. If you pick up, leave the tip line on the receipt blank

Or be a loving rear end in a top hat and draw a crucifix or swastika or an upside down pentagram on it or whatev

There is a restaurant called Vapiano, where they sell Italian food and booze however it is set up like a fast foot joint. I don't tip there because I have to bring the food to my own table and it's not a buffet where they wait on me for drinks. If you want a tip, don't run your over priced restaurant like a Checkers.
