Of course, usually 20%, sometimes more.
 
Depends on what i feel about the service but i usually do, now.. in "serious" restaurants i always give 10% tip.

Sometimes they get angry because i don't lol
 
sometimes other family members do. However, we need it more for ourselves. Aren't getting much income and with jobs slacking off it's not easy to tip off people. Then again been over 12 months since I went out into a restaurant.
 
We tip graciously esp. if they went above & beyond. They don't make that much in wages; it's the TIPS. I personally wouldn't & couldn't be a waitress.
 
I never did as I didn't make a lot of money, but with my recent new job I plan to once I can safely go back into restaurants.
 
I mean if I was working at a restaurant be cool to get tips :)
 
We have people doing it in the UK, just that rich people don't tip
 
Not sure in other countries, but sadly here in the states tips is how people who serve tables make most of their money.
It's not normal in the UK like it is in the USA which I'm grateful for. Service staff shouldn't have to rely on tips to make a decent wage at their job. It's just a shitty way for employers to pay their staff less.

But we do tip sometimes depending on the service.
 
I typically tip 15%, which is the standard here in Canada. Sometimes more, sometimes less, but it is always dependent on the situation and the service received.
 
So is Trump, I mean he was born into a rich would and he is a idiot

last I read he is in debt with no USA bank willing to allow him in their lobbies.

Still, if I was rich like some people, better believe there be a Benjamin on each table I get done eating at.
 
Trump is SO way in his debt, I Mean now since he's no longer the boss :P every company and banks are trying to get him and many cases might be a big investigation on him with tax fraud
 
Tipping isn't really a customary here in Ireland, but I still tip take away delivery drivers pretty much because it's what my parents always do

Yeah although I always feel a bit weird giving a small tip.

Can't really give a larger tip because it's going to end up being a higher % of the total order.

And I guess it's worse now for delivery drivers because people are reluctant to handle cash nowadays.
 
You pretty much have to in order to have the people like you. I mean, you want that if you eat there often. Anyway, even if you don't, it's just being nice and I feel bad if I don't.

What to tip? I don't go overboard, but I try not to be cheap.
 
I tip 15% to 20% depending on the level of service I received.
 
Yes! I always leave a tip regardless of my experience at the place. I’ll usually leave a £5-£10 tip depending on the service.
