majortom said:Did he say: "I am glad that some people do not tip, because I am only interested in my average tip and if everyone tipped me fairly, I would make too much money?" Obviously not. His point was that as a server one should not stress over those that tip poorly. That does not justify tipping poorly.
Retail businesses price their products so that they are profitable even after some level of theft and breakage occurs. Saying that: "It is ok for me to take an item without paying, since they count on some being stolen" is a similar (if someone more extreme) attitude.

Do you tip the person that rings you out, or the person that stocked the shelves. Just as a note, I do always tip, I tip an average of 15 percent, sometimes more sometimes less, it is my choice though not a requirement. However, I was much more into tipping before I was a cook and made 8 dollars an hour working my butt off in a 120 degree kitchen while the scatter brained waitresses easily pulled in $100 a night plus their 7 dollars an hour, I have since found out just how many waitress don't make sub minumum wage like they used too.
I have always loved this board, it got me to Disney when I was poor, it gets me there now, I have learned alot here however, now there are too may uptite people here, even the op said she wasn't sure if she should post this cause she got flamed last time, well it happened again, show how we reward those who share ideas.
