When you go to a restaurant, do typically tip?
Yes, I usually tip. My tips are generally 20-25% of the meal depending on how much cash I have on hand.
Do you tip a set amount or do you vary based on service quality?
It does very on the quality of service. One time, I took someone out to a very romantic dinner. We both had steak, and hers was supposed to be well-done. It came out rare. We sent it back and it came again medium-rare. This happened 3 more times before it came back well done. I probably would have left a better tip had the waitress not turned into a little bitch after we sent it back the second time. I had gotten up to use the bathroom and over heard her telling someone "I have these customers who keep sending back their dinner. Why won't they just eat it?" Maybe it is because it is not the way we ordered it. Anyways, the meal was supposed to be $150, I paid 50 (her meal was comped, mine was discounted) and left a 1 penny tip with a note that she should pay attention when someone orders and maybe she will tell the cook how the customer wanted their food. That would have been a $40 tip easy...but no...bad service.


Why do you tip or choose not to?
I will always leave a tip, the size depends on service. I left a tip just a couple of weeks ago at a Mexican restaurant when the waitress mixed up mushroom and shrimp quesodillas. I realized she didn't speak much English but she got it taken care of right away. The rest of her service was great and when I switched to Spanish, she became very grateful.
Pizza delivery, tip the driver?
I leave a standard tip for drivers of $2.00 Not a lot, but the most any pizza delivery has to drive to my place is 2 miles. Oh, and if you forget part of my order, you don't get it.
