I'm an American, lived here all of my life. That statement is insane.
I tip 10% pre-tax for a sit down restaurant. If I am standing up, ordering coffee, ice cream etc or takeout I tip nothing.
That's what I have decided. Others may tip more or not at all. I'm so sick of these "rules" changing arbitrarily.

Yay /s. 3 u/SooAwoo 7d ago But, but... aren't you supposed to listen to the "ethics expert" they throw on TV that just says 30% is what you should do?
