LOL AT THIS POTATO EATING FAGGOT

Once I start going to restaurants myself, I will tip accordingly. Like last week, this waiter took fucking forever and I had my glass out in the open to basically say "my glass is empty". He came by a few times and nothing. His tip was like 2 bucks. Some people fucking suck as waiters.

I'm getting a job as a waiter/errand boy soon, and I'll have a paycheck of $14 an hour.

You're welcome to disagree with the practice of tipping -- I agree that servers should be paid a fair and competitive wage -- but to ignore the fact that it's social convention and you're literally hurting peoples' livelihood with some asinine excuse about slavery is just selfish. Just admit you're too cheap to tip and move on with your life.

In Britian, at least, tips are only really given if the servie is exemplary, not average or below average.

Servers should be paid a fair wage and the prices of the food should be increased to reflect that. I don't really consider tipping voluntary, here. It should be proportional to the quality of service received. It's not the same here as it is in Britain.

Which is the problem. It should be. But until it's decided that people are supposed to earn a living wage by working before profit (fat chance), then unfortunately, I guess tht's how it is.

Tipping isn't really a thing here, because servers are paid an actual wage. We still tip, though, if the service has been amazing.
They could be paid 100k a year. I would still tip because they are providing a service for me. Just like I'll tip the hairdresser, the dude changing my oil, or a hotel worker.
