Not unless youre tipping a stripper at a coffee shack.

10% to go. 20% dine in. Always has been. People bickering about 15% or 18% are penny pinchers and should be shamed as such.

Tip wage actually came about as a way to keep small businesses and restaurants alive in economies that could not otherwise support them. It has since been abused by large chains and businesses as a way to lower overhead in the business. Tipping is often waived in small communities where everyone knows everyone and is only expected of outsiders who dont otherwise contribute to the community.

In that vein, the only people you need to worry about tipping is service personnel. You wouldn’t necessarily tip a gas station clerk unless they pumped your gas, which is still a thing in some states.

For a culture that globalized the service industry, you’d think you would all be more familiar with expressing your gratitude. I guess its hard to do when you’ve spent the last few centuries owning the help instead of thanking them.

Thats one of the dumbest things I’ve heard all year. You think sales tax is a tip for grocery store employees?

They started as medicines and were concentrated, distilled, and extracted to the point where the medicine it became was deadlier than the cure it provided.

Coca leaves are still consumed medicinally/recreationally in some parts of south america.

Poppy seeds have a whole history of being abused and weaponized through the silk road.

Marijuana has faced a similar story, though without the deaths. This hasn’t stopped governments around the world from conflating the deaths caused by other things with the use of medicines that in no way cause death.

The funny part is that a 20% wage increase doesnt even get a server up to minimum wage. Tipping is the wage in the industry and its the difference between making rent and sleeping in the car.

Honestly, if you cant afford to pay 20% of the cost of your meal and not sweat it, you probably shouldn’t be eating at a restaurant. Grocery stores dont expect tips, and the food is at least half the price. Oh, and grocery workers make at least minimum wage, which is as much as a 500% raise over tipped wage depending on the state. Get your numbers up if you want to make a point.

What do you think happened to cocaine and heroine? Hell, alcohol some places.

I think you guys are missing the point. OP said the date was cut off when the date is right there on the bottom of the image.

Hope this helps.

Yep. Sure is. Its even got that rabid response thing you wanted.

You’re welcome.

10:31 AM June 27th 2026.

It says right there.

Everybody can reply. It says right there at the bottom next to the date.

Do you not see June 27 2026 on the bottom of the image?

Its not hard. You tip 20% when you dine in. You can tip over that if you feel like it. You tip 10% to go/pickup. If you cant figure 10% of a number, you shouldn’t be in charge of financial decisions, including but not limited to tipping.
