    Oh, if I know I'm going to be a repeat customer I give a great big tip my first few times at a place. Guaranteed good service for life!
    I like the gratitude, the service and the gentle way in which the young waitresses lean over without a bra.

    Call me insane, I guess.

    I usually tip quite a fair amount in excess. Uh, I feel bad for some waiters so I kind of like to brighten up their days or something.

    Ahaha, excellent.

    I tip fairly standard, roughly 15% on average. When using my credit card I'll round to a whole number. I'll go up to 20% for good service or likable waiter/waitress, and if the service is appallingly bad I'll leave less.

    10% minimum, up to whatever rounding is nice. So sometimes close to 20+% (think 32 dollar meal with a 8 dollar tip)

    Ohhhh man, as if I tip. If I hand the taxi driver a £5.00 and it's like £3.70 for my ride, I'll say "call it £4". To me that's me being NICE. I don't understand why people feel the need to tip, maybe it's my English-ness but I just thing it's quite ludicrous. When you buy something from a shop - do you tip them too!? No. No one tips me at work. I get £3.93 an hour, I'm not tipping any one! People should get their wages that they've earned, I think the rest is just greed.

    When I've been at restaurants though I'll usually split the tip with my mates, like all put in a quid or so each. I tip my hairdresser a whole of a £1, how generous AM I.

    I'm talking about UK here - I dunno, I'd tip places like in the US if people are working for literally pennies.

    This is an entirely different work environment.

    I hate tipping. I think it is endlessly stupid. Everyone around here wants a tip. The guy who hands me a smoothie even puts out a little tip jar. I love that in Japan, tipping is an insult. I look forward to the relief of it all next week.

    That said, I have been known to tip between 15 and 20 percent unless someone pisses me off.
