When you eat at a restaurant, how much do you generally tip in comparison to your total?

[justlilly]

what about when you get food delivered to your home?

[cun7n1nja]

I never get food delivered, so I couldn't tell you. But I generally tip around 20% at a restaurant, obviously depending on service, but I don't have many bad experiences in that sense. Or I might tip like 25% if it's like, a favorite waiter/waitress at a place I frequent, that I'm on friendly terms with. =] I tip a lot at the bar though when I go, especially since I know most of the bartenders. Usually on every drink or two, because I pay in cash. So I pay with a $20, my bill is $8-10 ish, I'll tip like $2 out of my change. Or pay with a $10 or $5 and my drink was $4, I'll tip $1, or something to that effect.

At a restaurant I tip generally 20% but I have been known to round up to make it a whole dollar.

Bill comes to $15.94 so I tip 4.06 making it an even $20. It has been too long since I have had food delivered to my house to remember what I tipped. I would probably say enough to be 20% same with above but I don't calculate it out. I just say keep the change.

I don't usually get food delivered to home, and I wouldn't tip if I did.

In a restaurant though, I think 15-25% is standard, depending on the service.

The CONVENTION is 10-15%, but personally, I tend to stick to my own personal range of 15-20%. We must remember, these are PEOPLE serving us.

Whatever change I get , I give it as a tip lol . *miser*

[justlilly]

So like, just the coins?

[Opinion Owner]

Not just coins lol . like if the bill is 450$ , I'll tip 50 $ lol

[justlilly]

Oh, OK. Yeah, that is much better.

15% at restaurants sometimes more than that, and from $5-10 on deliveries.

20% ( my parents don't even tip them... so I'm trying to do it for them.

for delivery like 5-10 bucks if I order for a party or something like 20

I don't see the reason in tipping,

he's just doing his job it's like giving a tip to the mailman

weirder is that its almost wrong or selfish not to tip

just to make people think I'm not an a**hole I'll tip whatever change I have

[justlilly]

In most states that person doing their job is only paid $3 or less per hour by their employer, which after you pay taxes on your tips is usually nothing. How much do you make per hour?

[lowlyGiant]

You know they intentionally get paid less, because people are expected to tip. By not tipping therm fairly, you're making them gravitate tiwards lower-class.
