Tipping has gotten out of hand in CA
I went to chilies 🌶️ my bill was $70 bucks I left $83 that’s 18% I been tipping 18% my whole life when I dine out. The waitress was flipping out saying I didn’t tip enough and I should’ve left the entire $100, I responded with why would I tip you 40% when all you did was click a few buttons on a iPad and everyone else handed me everything. All you did was take my order and leave. You never came and asked us if we wanted refills or needed anything. I had to get up and get silverware cause you did not bring us any, anyways that’s just one instance that happend just now I can go on and on about how these restaurants are ridiculous. Since when did 25% become the norm? Only time I ever tipped 25% is at a high end dining restaurant or if the service was fantastic and we left a mess but every restaurant we go to me and my wife stack the plates make it easy for them And we clean up After ourselves
Anyways we need to get a petition going or something cause this is getting out of hand especially in the Silicon Valley area. Went to a coffee shop and the minimum tip was $8-10-$13 or custom amount like wtf? On a $15 bill
