Rant: Tip Culture

[stlouie_lipp]

I leave all the receipts at the restaurant and move on with my life.

I do too. I never take a copy. I always try to leave cash for the tip and just write "cash" on the receipt so it really shouldn't matter which copy I sign.

I honestly don't know why we keep receipts because I don't think my wife does anything with them. And I always turn down receipts at gas stations etc...

Jordan and Pippen are notoriously bad tippers in Chicago.

I've heard about "no tippen" Pippen and Tiger being cheap, but never heard that about Jordan. I thought the opposite because I knew someone who caddied for him at Midenha and was tipped $1,000.

You're supposed to tip for a coffee at sbucks? [expletive] cost $5 for a latte and I thought u paid more so they could pay their baristas a decent wage. Its fastfood coffee....

yea i don't tip at starbucks, sub shops or smoothie king.

should i feel bad?

i mean im a very generous person when it comes to tipping servers/bartenders/hair cut lady/valet/etc, but the place i mentioned above? nah

There was a Starbucks in my office building I went to at last once a day. I dropped a $5 in once every few weeks and thought that was generous... that said, more work goes into making my $5 latte than pouring my $8 beer, but I tip the bartender a $1 every time.

Jeebus, $8 beers.
