i dont usually tip, its not what ppl do over here. i think its a rort! you pay for your meal, and they get paid to serve you from their employers.

When i worked in food service (3 yrs ago) you might get maybe $2 or $3 dollars from someone you were extra nice to. never a percentage of the meal like you do over there tho - seeing as meals were about $60 for a steak.

but we never got offened. its just not the custom here.

When i went on a PandO cruise last year they automatically deducted your tips from your card without even asking!! which ticked me off.. i really dont see the point in tipping.
