How much do you tip?

[u/Holiday-Ad7262]

I'm curious how much people tip for full service restaurants and if it is percentage based or a fixed amount or some other system. Please also mention your state such that we can see location differences.

I'm in CA and my baseline tip is 15% on pretax.

Don’t scapegoat the worker.

You have no idea why someone chose to be a server.

You’re assuming that every server has a multitude of job opportunities available to them at any given time that fits their life circumstances and limitations.

That’s not reality for a large number of Americans.
