Wow. I'm complete opposite. I consider myself a very generous tipper. Yea, it's their job man, but that's how they make money. They give you good service and you tip them for exactly that. Cheapskate.

they should provide good service anyway...it is their job...the employer is the cheapskate...paying shit wage and relying on the patron to pay their salaries....does one really deserve a tip for dispensing a draught beer? pretty bs

hate paying extra for certain cable (sports packages). some company needs to come up with an a la carte for television service. Pointless for me to pay for 200+ channels when I watch 5 or 6, 95% of the time.

If they increase wages then the price of the food goes up. At least with a tip you can pay based on the service you get and have some control on your bill. Plenty of places to eat nowadays where tipping not required.
