Tips tips!


The tip poll--and only a week late!

This is a U.S.-centric poll. Tipping in the U.S. is very different from tipping in Europe; the results would be hopelessly skewed if it were a poll that included all nations. (I don't know if Canada's tipping etiquette is just like the U.S.; if it is, feel free to join in!)

If you find it interesting, please point friends in this direction.



[Poll #1439233]

My dad, rest his soul, was probably one of the worst tippers in the world and I think I may be overcompensating in an attempt to improve the family karma but I tend to start at 20% and go up from there if the service was really good or if I'm eating with people like my sister who can be, to put it tactfully, slightly persnickity.

Yeah...I kind of feel like I'm making up for people who are, in my view, stingy about tipping. And I'm usually with a talkative group...and/or a group with masses of food allergies/aversions, so...I figure it's well-earned.
