Thoughts on tipping?

We try to tip 10 to 15% if we dine out. If the waitress is really bad, I won't tip.

Same. I'll tip 15 percent and if it is super good perhaps 20.

I actually tip pretty well

Oh, cool. What do you normally tip then?

Where I live, tipping is not mandatory, and you should only tip if the service actually was spectacular. Therefore I rarely tip, and I only tip when the service or the product was really really good.

I always tend to try and leave 10% even though it's not compulsory here.
I think most people in the catering industry always try to be nice and helpful.

Ohhh cool. I will for sure tip decently if it is a local place. We have an ice cream shop which is only open during the spring and summer time where they accept tips. Not required, but am nice to them. They are all high schoolers and/or college kids looking for a job.

Agreed they do try and be helpful! Think whatever you can tip is better than none IMO.

In the UK it's not something that it required for us to do. We can give a tip if we wanted to for service if we are happy but it's not something that most expect you to do as they are paid quite well away from tips.

I do know that tips in the US are very much expected because of the low pay which I think is a shame.

Yeah, very shameful. :/ I wish it'd get better.

Yes, I always tip in a way I round the bill. We don't have law in my country where you must tip anyone.

You want battle? I will give you war.

I try to tip at least 10 percent. However if I believe the server sucks or was rude, they get no tip.
