Who does not tip at all?!
 

alright you cheap sob's. who completely stiff's your service industry wait staff?
poll is anonymous.

I don't see polls on mobile, but without due cause, I doubt anyone here does....YMMV.

I don't do any of those.

Count me as an "other".

You didn't have a choice for us $20ers

I would say, give it a minute.
I also added other options that I consider vote worthy.

you have to pick one. ;)

I tip 20% + enough to round the total up to the nearest dollar. If the service is bad, I'll adjust down to either 15% or 10%. Rarely do I not tip at all, but it's happened.

I am a decent tipper, but I do NOT hold to a set percentage. We go out to eat breakfast on occasion. For good waitress that kept my coffee cup full, served my food promptly and hot, and did an overall good job I will not just tip a buck fifty (15%) I will give em 4 bucks.

Conversely when we go out to a high end restaurant and order prime rib and I get a Chimay with my food and the bill is knocking on $100 I am not going to tip fifteen to twenty bucks to someone that never refilled my water glass, and only did the minimum effort. They did less work that the breakfast server, just the food I ordered was more expensive.

My average tip for good service is 20%

I had one lunch meal that the waitress has HORRIBLE. I even walked over to her as she was flirting with the manager and told the manager it was the worst service I had received in years. It took 1.5 hours to eat at a Mexican joint that should take 30 minutes max. We never got the tortillas I asked for or the sophillas. I left a one penny tip on my credit card receipt.

^^^ Same here...I'm not in the poll though.

You guys are making my hungry with these threads.

This one is me as well. The waitress doing a great job with my $5 breakfast still has to pay the same bills as the waitress doing a great job with my $50 steak dinner. I very rarely leave nothing, but have on a few occasions for incredibly bad service. I frequently leave over 20% for great service.

I'm at 20% too. However if I'm at a bar, I will tip heavy because I will have the attention of the person serving.

If my service is bad of if the meal is over /under cooked, I will talk to a manager. A good manager will make adjustments. There have only been a few occasions where I had a bad experience, I just don't return.

That's how I met my gf. She was my bartender. lol

If I get really bad service I won't totally stiff them. I'll drop whatever change I have in my pocket on the table, minus the quarters and dimes :)

This; I don't want them thinking I forgot

I am usually pretty generous

At restaurants I generally tip 20%, I rarely get bad service and I almost like everything put in front of me. I'm happy that someone else made it for me.

At Supercuts I have a tip policy: If they trim the hair in my ears, they get a $5 buck tip which is about 30%. If they completely ignore the hair in my ears, they get zero. I want attention to detail and that is required for me at Supercuts, especially since the hair cuts sometimes are finished in less than 5 min.

Well that is reasonable as you only have two hairs on top of old baldy. Do you let your ear hair grow out so that you can do a comb over?

I usually leave a dollar if the service is good and Nothing if it bad.

I tip the other waitress. the good looking one.

But seriously I just about always leave a tip. My friends don't :(

For sit-down type service I’ll tip based on level of service (typically around 15% for decent, 20% for good, higher for great and less or nothing for poor or terrible).

I absolutely do not / will not “add a tip” for counter service places. That’s called a job and the staff is getting a paycheck for it. There’s no service involved beyond making a sandwich or coffee and / or punching some keys on a register. “Service” is something above and beyond the minimum level of effort by the business to justify charging anything at all - it’s not doing one’s job. If one goes “above and beyond” then they get special recognition for it. That’s the whole point of a tip.
