Do you tip your barista? What about your doctor?
First wank so TIP WELL and I promise not to use the cheap lotion. You believe me, right?

After a nice exchange earlier today, I was actually beginning to have warm feelings about [info]seattle. Not for long.

[info]deguisement freely admits she has already wanked trolled posted in the New Yorkers comm about tipping baristas. Surprisingly, that did not go completely swimmingly. My favorite comment was:

I'll tip my NY baristas like i do my Seattle baristas when they make drinkable fucking lattes like my Seattle baristas do.

Whee! They're off. [info]gomezticator and [info]oui_je_danse are of course involved in tl;dr threads of nothingness. Some highlights:

SO bartenders don't deserve tips either?

wouldn't know; i'm straight edge.


So a couple hours later, the OP makes another damn post. This time, she wants to know our Thoughts On Tipping McDonalds. Bonus wank on stripper morality.

Minimum wage, in the U.S., covers basically doing non-variable, non-customer-service things: taking your money and giving you stuff.

If someone does more than that--makes food or drinks, cleans up after you, does your hair--*and* gets minimum wage, there's some tip involved, depending on how much they do, but it's usually 10% or below.

If someone does more than that and they *don't* get minimum wage, you tip 15 to 20 percent.

Minimum wage in the U.S. is in no way close to "enough for an adult to live on," but that leads to a whole 'nother rant.
