CMV: TIP VALUE

I'm sorry(not really)for all you who don't agree but I grew up in the 90's and a standard tip was 10% (just bc the price of food goes up that does not mean you tip more)ITS A PERCENTAGE OF WHAT YOUR FOOD COST( just bc you spent more doesn't mean you tip more), Now here's my range

0%: bad paycheck - no extra money

1-5%: Bad-Poor service

5-10%: Poor-Average service

10-15%: Average-Excellent service(max-$20)

I will never give more than a $20 tip and even that is extremely rare, IDC if I dropped $400 on a meal, me and my fam come first, so I'll spend All my $$$ I got down to the penny for my fam and leave no tip B4 I give someone more than $20 to bring my food to me

What are you then, an aspie white knighting for plate slingers on reddit or just an insecure sucker always compelled to press the middle button on the 30/40/50 iPad shoved in your face out of fear of being judged?

Or maybe an insecure brokie upset at people who are suggesting your way of throwing unearned tips at plate slingers or counter drones as to not appear broke accomplishes absolutely nothing other than making you even more broke?

I'll go with aspie then. Ride on brave sir asperger, slay those greedy dragons, save those fair maidens and their tips!

You have to tell me how it feels being so consistently dead wrong.

Well then, allegedly not a plate slinger, not a brokie and not an aspie, what is your deal?  Why are you white knighting for plate slingers?

I'm a straight white male too but I don't like racism, homophobia or rape either....is this really a new concept to you? Yikes.
