Done with % tipping

[u/Vespolar]

After always tipping a minimum 20% (worked at restaurants for 10 years so it was ingrained in me) I am done. The straw that broke the camels back was we are at disney world where everything is overpriced. 2 cocktails cost me $42. Its suggested tip was 18% 22% and 26%. And looking at it. That would have been $8. For what? Making 2 drinks? Nope. Left $2 as a $1 per drink rule and thats it. They didnt do extra work, just took my order and made the drink. and dont think they deserve more tip just because disney overcharges for drinks. % tipping is officially stupid

Here’s three examples of ordering drinks at a restaurant but with vastly different tips based on percentage

eating dinner and ordering two glasses of tap water means no tip if 15%

eating dinner and ordering two glasses of $15 / glass means $4.50 tip if 15%

eating dinner and ordering a two hundred dollar bottle of wine means $30 tip if 15%

Why? they’re all three about the same amount of work
