Women of Different Salaries: How much do you tip? | Glamour

Thank god I don’t live in North America, I hate the tipping culture and all it stands for. It’s not one bit genuine and it just lets employers get off without paying their staff properly. It’s a joke of a system and it should go. It makes clowns out of the staff who have plaster a big smile and it’s bad for visitors who end spending more than they intended. I love to tip when someone really genuinely did something that made the experience better or I Inconvenienced them but default 20% for someone doing their job is ridiculous. Let the employer pay them!

To be fair, 20% at an expensive restaurant is different to 20% at McDonald’s

I really loved it when that girl said 20 percent

Was it me only but the last lady’s walk was a bit

I tip according to service. I have tipped up to 50% (most amazing service I have ever had) and also 0% (only 3 times. Once they forgot about us, was sitting there for an hour. Twice they were VERY rude)

The standard used to be 10%. Then 15%. Now it's 20%... It doesn't make sense why it's not a flat tip (waiters usually don't upsell menu items). Tipping doesn't make sense at all. I still tip because that's how our country is, but it shouldn't be this way.

I feel like the reason people who earn less tip more is because they know what it feels like to not have loads of money, so they understand how much it means when people get tips

The first medical student with 0 salary broke my heart😭

Been trying to figure out the tipping culture in the United States and it feels like 20% is the standard by this video.

[kaybees]

I really don’t get the tip culture in the US. This never happens where I live. and I’m glad it doesn’t. Why do you feel the need to give more money to someone for doing their job? They’re getting payed anyway. “They’re not getting payed enough” shouldn’t be the visitor’s problem. The employer should care about their employees, it’s not the clients job.

my friend tried to tip in Japan and the waiter felt insulted 😭

[jennamarie]

I always tip 20%, even though I'm a college student who is trying to save up. Don't go to a bar/restaurant if you aren't going to tip! Get fast food or go see a movie or something. Bartenders and waiters depend on tips as part of their income and they have to put up with so much BS.

[laffietaffie]

it used to be 10% in the mid 90s, pretty much only in restaurants, and it was a little bit more lenient. then it got to 15% and for all intents and purposes, mandatory - at an increasing number of places and for more services. more recently, the norm has gotten to 18-20% and it's getting easier to say where *not to tip. in five years, it'll be 25%. in ten years, it'll be 30% and we'll even be tipping our doctors. very stable genius country.

[kartoffel-snackgesalzen]

I don't have much money bc I still go to school, but I still tip 20%, and maybe 15% or so for just a coffee.
Servers get payed more in Germany than in America most of the time, but they still make most of their money through tips.
Edit: Before some super patrioctic Americans attack me, minimum wage in the US is 7.25$. In Germany it's 9.35€, so over 10$.

[doxiebacon]

As someone living with a waitress, I always tip minimum 20%, usually closer to 50%. If someone is serving me and being underpaid, the least I can do is help them out a bit.

How much do you save for women of different salaries

[matthewj]

Who else is looking at the job to know which pays more money😂😅

[EpicNostra]

THank you for this information. Very useful

[itsalovelybae]

If the service is really really bad then I don't tip. Sorry, I, believe tips should be earned and not expected. If the service is normal then I tip 15%. If I really enjoyed the service I usually tip 20% but since this pandemic, I've felt so bad for people who have to risk their lives that I've been tipping 25%.
