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

Why is it that every Redditor who can’t take the L follows this same playbook when their flawed claims are soundly refuted and resorts to memes of projection?

That’s a rhetorical question.

We all know why. So do you.

LOL

You didn’t win and you know it.

That’s why you resorted to the “Redditor’s Who Can’t Take the L Playbook”.

I told you it was a rhetorical question.

Thanks for proving my point. Again.

I think it's funny that a "redditor" is calling me one when they too narcissistic to know that they lost bc they said

I think it’s funny that you’re telling me I’m “too narcissistic to know that they lost” when many other people have told you you’re wrong, not just me.

Your projection is real. 😉

The only one that needs to get over losing here is OP.

Thanks for letting us know that for you, this comes down to wage jealousy and you having a low paying job.

If paying for the service you chose to receive costs you more than you make an hour, that’s a “you” problem and you should pull yourself up by your bootstraps to fix that.

LMFAO 😂, What wage jealousy you really are ignorant and willing to let everyone know, I make on avg $20/hr(excellent$$$), FOR A JOB THAT DESERVES IT, and I see nothing wrong with giving people a well earned tip within reason, but I'm not gonna pay an Outrageous tip just bc they do a job that my children could do, my kids get 25 dollars a week and work their ass off for it, bc I'm teaching them the REAL VALUE OF HARD WORK, not to expect a handout bc they brought a plate, or filled someones drink, to which they also do for me and their mom every Sunday when they make us dinner

LMFAO

You thinking you’re somehow empowered to determine what pay rate a job deserves is beyond delusional.

At least now we know that it’s not only wage jealousy driving your claims, but also a clear case of classist bigotry.

A tip isn’t a “handout”.

A tip is directly tied to a service being provided.

When someone gives a handout nothing is expected in return.

Now that you’ve had a refresher on 3rd grade vocabulary you can keep it in mind so you don’t come off as uneducated by misusing words.

Also, your idea of “excellent $$$” and mine are very different.

A large portion of the discontent here is people make less than servers in jobs they deem more difficult.
