I’m so lost on how to tip anymore. I remember back when 12% pre-tax was considered a really good tip, but now the kiosks recommend 20-25% (which is usually ON TOP of tax).

I already don’t tip anywhere I’m not sitting down with service, but 20-25% is crazy when I’m just trying to get fed.

    If you’re being judged for it, that’s because the employees are being massively underpaid. I tend to not return to places with that atmosphere.

    If the wait staff is awesome and you have a great time, tip high to show your appreciation. Tipping because you feel pressured to or because you feel sorry for the employees is self-perpetuating. Everyone loses except the business owners.
