He never tips less than 20% and often more. I tip 20% as long as service is decent. I actually tip more at breakfast places, like 30%. Why? The bill is small and it just seems like they'll never do as well. But, they aren't tipping out either.California Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12582691517303132274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-87594330683010710112010-12-11T01:03:47.019-05:002010-12-11T01:03:47.019-05:00Haha.

I hate paying, but I also get a little sheepish when others treat me so I try to keep it even and return the favourite but in all honesty, a free ,wal always tastes better than one I had to shell out for! As for tips, I tip 20% all the time unless someone is just awful. I tip hairdressers well too, because you def.

I tip according to service. If you do a good job, refill my drink when I'm empty and don't make a pest of yourself I always, always leave a 20% tip. Twice I left someone a $0.25 tip. The 1st time I went somewhere and the waitress asked if I wanted a drink - I told her yes and that I was actually ready to order as well. She told me that she didn't ask if I was ready to order - that she just asked what I wanted to drink. Woah lol. Okay. The 2nd time I waited 45 minutes for my bill to come and after I gave her my cc she took an hour and 10 mins to come back. It took me asking twice where the hell she went to. I had 2 babies with me and a not so happy husband. Needless to say I never went back to either place again. And lastly, one night I had such a great waiter at a casino seafood restaurant, that I left a 40% tip - although that may have been due to the massive amount of wine I had with dinner lol - but he was amazing, and knowledgable, and ran like a chicken with his head cut off and deserved a little more. To this day it has been the best dinner I've ever had out with my husband!Julie Jhttp://facebook.com/juliejohnson424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-68434400663061257292010-12-09T19:57:51.873-05:002010-12-09T19:57:51.873-05:00I just close and cover my eyes, hold out my hand, ...I just close and cover my eyes, hold out my hand, and tell the customer I'll take whichever card goes in my hand first.

I used to think it happened because I'm a girl and men are just suckers for anything with boobs, but unless all the men BW serves are gay or bi, it can't be a sex thing. Maybe it IS just because they're arbitrary about tipping and also penis-measurey (when it comes to throwing around money)? <br /><br />I think the exception here, of course, is women who have worked for tips. I've gotten some huge tips from women, and when I've said "oh my GOD, thank you", their reply is always "No problem. I used to be a waitress". I try to do the same, now that I'm out of the tips world. You calculate 20% and then round up from there. Don't be a jerk.Jeshttp://rearrangingdirt.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-73627941475386120822010-12-09T16:00:22.098-05:002010-12-09T16:00:22.098-05:00I like the way men try to outdo each other as well...I like the way men try to outdo each other as well. It so beats having to write eight separate checks (after having been told earlier that would not be necessary) and then have that one woman with the pig eyes go over her bill and say, "Oh wait! You put HER coffee on MY check. Take this two dollars off immediately!" And then leave me next to nothing because of my honest error in trying to work out whether when I saw her put the cup to her lips she was just sampling the coffee of the women next to her or had ordered it herself from the busboy or another waitron.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706867684354336699.post-5762072862001448952010-12-09T15:42:47.337-05:002010-12-09T15:42:47.337-05:00I think men tip better in general because women tr...I think men tip better in general because women try to calculate the exact ti, down to the penny, and then round down from the .004 cents.
