You can enter the amount of the check before taxes, the tax rate, and the tip percentage. It should display the amount before taxes, the dollar amount of the taxes, the dollar amount of the tip (calculated on amount before taxes), and the total amount including taxes and tip.…

The atmosphere at Applebee's was very pleasant and our waiter was friendly and accommodating. We counted seven courtesies (please, thank you, your welcome, may I help you, etc.) that he said to us. Unfortunately, we did overhear another waiter making unprofessional complains about their customer. Our waiter also told us that he had been in the service industry for nine years and had been working at Applebee’s for two years. He had the most…

There are many good reasons on why you should tip a waiter. Anyone who has had much experience in a restaurant franchise would know that most of your wages are tips.

This can be beneficial to the customer leaving a good tip can give a customer better results with the service. They may get a kinder person, faster service, and hotter and…
According to Ehrenreich, people who work jobs that are subsidized almost entirely by tips should be either paid more to begin with or offered more services such as housing and food like European countries do. For example, the typical 10% tip is considered borderline excessive at table service restaurants because waiters and waitresses are already paid substantially. Also, it is common especially in Mediterranean countries for the 10-15% service charge to already be included in the prices displayed on the menu. As it becomes harder for someone to sustain a comfortable lifestyle off of tipping in America, this may be something the government will look into adopting.…
The essay made a strong impression on the audience. The author gave to the audience her experiences of the cultural variation in between Chinese and American Community, and she was surprised. One example of the author’s best is that tipping at the restaurant “in mainland China we never tip anybody” (Yaping, T. p.39). Tipping is popular in America Society when waiters work in the restaurants or anywhere.…
Second, we had a very talkative and rude waitress. When we first sat down we waited almost 30 minutes just to get our drinks and appetizer put in. On top of getting our drinks late, we had to keep asking for refills. I don’t expect a waitress to keep all drinks completely filled, but when every drink at a table is completely dry, I would think they would need a refill. Paying almost $2.00 for a drink is ridiculous enough, so I try to get what my money is worth. Also on top of all of that, our waitress kept talking to the other table near us while standing at our table. I would have rather not had a waitress and have done it all myself.…
-In addition to small wages...servers must give a percentage of their tips to bartenders, busboys, hostesses, and back of the house employees. This is also something to take into consideration. The commonly average tip in the U.S. is 15%; Fair Tip.org suggest that tipping 5% over that would minimize the impact of tipping out such employees, and thus send the server home with a fair and decent salary.…
Tipping began in Europe, giving an allowance to those socially inferior. They were forced to tip those who hosted their visit. This way of life began to spread and more and more people began to get upset with that. Today though, tipping has…
In the United States the custom of paying gratuity has become a costly social norm. The expectation of leaving a substantial tip for average service should be challenged. Tipping is not only unnecessary, but also causes social issues. The many reasons that tipping should be abolished include public opinion, tipping messes with the overall pay of workers, other countries views and psychological problems pertaining to the subject.…

Everyday people are faced with a dilemma: Dining at a restaurant, getting a haircut at the barber shop, receiving a food delivery; ex. Pizza, Chinese Food. We are put in the position to leave a tip. Tipping has become a standard in most service establishments, and many people ask. Should I leave tip or should I not tip at all? Tipping etiquette as grown substantially in recent years and in U.S., restaurants alone account for about 27 billion (AZAR) each year. There are many people on both sides of this debate about Tipping. Some people argue that they should not assume the burden and be taxed additionally, while others argue that not leaving a tip for serviced rendered is unethical and wrong. Even though tipping does not have legal obligation people do grant it. So what is a tip/gratuity? Where did this custom come from? What are the issues that surround the concept of tipping/gratuity? Why do people tip? Tipping for service getting out of hand and is it ethical, is tipping expected today?…
No matter how different people may be there is one thing everyone in this room, and everyone and the world has in common. Food. We all eat it, we all love it and I don’t know about you guys but mealtime is easily one of my favorite parts of the day. But how often do we think about the people who serve us our food? Servers in Texas are only paid $2.13 an hour before tips and according to the Wall Street Journal and even with tips many servers end up making below minimum wage. I’m credible on this topic because I’ve worked in several restaurants and I’ve seen how many people almost completely rely on tips as their source of income. Tipping is relevant to you guys because everyone here has eaten in a restaurant and because most likely some of you guys have also had the pleasure of working in a restaurant. There are two solutions I propose to this problem, one everyone could make an effort to give their servers a good tip of around 20% if they receive good service, and also Texas could increase the amount that waiters and waitresses get paid per hour.…
