Last week i went into some cafe i dont remember in which city, and the game asked me if i wanted to tip some guy who literally just seated me without a word.
I mean, is this some tactic to appeal to americans? I know you're considered an asshole in the US if you don't tip your waiters, even when they treat you like shit OR simply give you a cold, regular service.
Tipping is rewarding extra-ordinary service aka something more that what is fucking expected of you.
So fuck no i didnt fucking tip that loser, don't you fucking "..." me you american piece of shit i hope you get milked by your employer for years on end on a shitty minimum wage you self-entitled piece of SHIT.

I've worked in restaurants all over this country as both a cook and server and I can assure you that it most certainly is. I work at an upscale joint right now and none of our servers make more than $2.50. It's shitty and I don't necessarily agree with it, but to try to deny that's the way it is is simply delusional
>>26458667
Amerifat here, and when we get shit service, the telltale tip is a single penny, face-down. Tipping is expected, because like >>26458825
says, minimum wage for tippable positions is insanely low. Practically all of their wages come from tips, which some places even force them to share with the other workers (bullshit socialism, is what I call that.)
I, personally, like to tip well whenever the service is reasonable. I generally tip 20+% because I enjoy making people happy, but not all service is worth it. The other day I had this waitress who literally was sitting down at another table and checking her texts between tables. I waited like 15 minutes with an empty drink and I left her three dollars on a 40 dollar meal. Cause that's some stupid shit.
>>26458845
It's actually not
I work at an Applebee's and I make $2.40 an hour.
>>26458845
I'm against tipping, but legaly he's right.
There's a federal law that excempts restaurants and such for paying minimum wage if they allow the servers to ask for tips. The practice extended to other businesses later.
I for one believe that if you have a shitty job, then you shouldn't have been a waste of flesh and air and gotten yourself an education.

>>26458845
Wow, anon. Maybe you should let Americans tell you what their laws are and trust that they understand better than you. Tippable positions in the United States have a different minimum wage. Granted, I've never worked one such position myself, because I refuse to have wages dependent upon the generosity of the entitlement generation, but I've had friends that did. And I know for sure it's less than $3 per hour.
>>26458864
That just raises further questions!
>>26458914
Education isn't the only way to build a career, anon. Also, just tip. It's part of the price of the meal. Highschool workers need jobs, too. Bet you were born with a silver fucking spoon in your mouth.

>>26458950
That's cute, you think employers actually take care of their employees and don't just hoard every penny they can until it's wrenched from their hands by a lawyer, which most folks can't afford to hire on $2/hour.
>>26458949
No, whoever told you that is full of shit.
>>26458949
>Isn't tipping MANDATORY in America?
Pretty much, yes, it's considered incredibly rude not to tip at a restaurant. It shouldn't be thought of as a bonus for good service, but as a baseline for anything other than outright shitty service.
That is slowly changing, though. Some restaurants have recently eliminated tipping and are building the cost into their menu prices. It's a small number of places doing this so far, but it seems to be picking up steam.
>>26458889

>>26458988
I get that your buttmad about not getting tips but don't blatantly lie. That shit goes on their taxes and yours. It doesn't take a lawyer to prove that you didn't get paid at least minimum wage for one of your pay checks. The restaurant would probably fire you though for not making enough money for yourself and them having to pay you to reach minimum though
>>26458845
Are you fucking retarded?
I work as a server at a bar/restaurant/movie theater and I make a solid $4.30 an hour. Thankfully I had the brains to work in a rich area and I usually end up making $12-$15 an hour after tips, but that's after I work 10-12 hour shifts. I can't imagine what it's like for people who work in shitty backwoods areas. I'm fucking giving my soul to this place.
>>26458949
Some restaurants will include tips in the bill if it's a particularly large bill

Is tax included on your receipt when you go shopping, Americans? Do you have to pay it up front?
What if you forget to pick up some change?
>>26459033
Many people agree, but for whatever reason we've developed a system where wait staff is paid largely through tips. Until it changes (which, like I said, it slowly is), forcing a tip on customers may be ridiculous, but it's how it's done.
>>26459041
>says the person living on tips
>>26459044
>Is tax included on your receipt when you go shopping, Americans? Do you have to pay it up front?
Sales tax is paid with the item cost, and is included on the receipt.
>>26459033
It's not forcing, don't be an idiot. You tip accordingly to the service.
Everyone knows you have to be attentive and kind and nice to work in restaraunts, if you aren't then you won't be getting any tips.
>>26459041
No, I just simply get payed in cash and have my own safe.
Good luck paying for your college debt until you're 50 tho :^)
>>26458866
Probably because you tipped the cab driver or waiter. Using their services give you points either way.

You should try to get a job there, it'll help you afford your fedoras and chains for your cargo shorts.
>>26459066
So, tipping does concede style points?
>>26459070
What if you pay in cash and don't have enough to pay the tax?
>>26459044
Let's say I'm buying a soda.
The price for the soda on the tag is $1.50. I take it to the register, the cashier rings it up, and tells me with tax it's now $1.84. I pay $1.84.
If I don't have a couple pennies, cashiers usually just let it slide. Forgetting to pick up change pretty much never happens. Cashiers don't want to mess with the drama of some guy coming back and being pissed at them. They just want to work their shitty job and go home.
>>26459075
>I'm living lavish.
>Drowned in college debt.
Now I know that you're just being retarded on purpose.
>>26459079
Then you don't get the item.
But that isn't really a thing that happens. People know that tax is added on, and don't carry around the precise amount of the item without accounting for the tax.
>>26459079
You either brought enough money with you or you didn't. So you can either pay for it or you can't. You know tax isn't that much, right? Like a soda for $1.50 might end up being $1.57 with tax depending.
>>26459006
>mediocre
Literally nobody cares about anything other than what degree you have and any connections you have.
>>26459078
No, you just don't get the option to tip them unless you do something that gives style points.
>>26459057

>It's not forcing, don't be an idiot.

That's literally forcing it on the customers you retard.
>>26459121
Those places are few and far inbetween. And it's not something that's going to catch on.
>>26459121
You can choose not to tip. It makes you a tremendous asshole who shouldn't be permitted to participate in society, but you don't HAVE to tip.
>>26459079
Almost never happens unless you're a foreigner or a kid.
But like >>26459083 said, cashiers won't give a shit about a dime. When the managers do store counts, they expect the cash drawers to be off anyway (cashiers drop coins, give away one too many quarters, etc.). If you don't have *exact* change, they probably won't give you shit.
>>26458950
They won't keep you long if you don't make enough through tips. There's a reason service has a high turnover.
>>26459103
If you have family connections, yes. If you network by yourself, you need something in your corner. Work experience, academic recognition, or both.
>>26459115
Right. Sorry.
>>26459120
Just stop. You look even more retarded than before now.
>>26459120
none of that explains the contradiction between you drowning in debt and living lavishly you retard. what special ed college is educating you?
>>26459136
You're missing the point, they're increasing the price of the products to accommodate for tips.
Paying the tip after that would be giving them a double tip essentially.
>>26459128
True.
>>26459083
Hopefully you're buying half a gallon of soda, because that's way too much for a soda without real sugar

If it's a restaurant that has built service charges into the menu prices for the purpose of abolishing tips, then no, obviously there's no need to tip extra. And in that case it's not "forcing" you to tip, it's making it unnecessary to tip by paying a fair wage without shifting some discretionary portion to the customer.

>>26459218

>>26459219
The problem arises when the place doesn't mention to the customers that there's no need to tip because they've increased the cost to accommodate. Then you have people essentially paying a double tip.

>>26459294
In America, they tip because its legal for employers to have the customers cover their employees wages and pay them less than minimum wage.
In most of the rest of the world, its a token gratitude thing, like "you did something nice for me here's an insignificant amount of money which will add up for you throughout a day of good service".
>>26459361
>It makes you a genuinely shitty person

>The problem arises when the place doesn't mention to the customers that there's no need to tip because they've increased the cost to accommodate. Then you have people essentially paying a double tip.
I've never seen that, though. I've been to restaurants where they've built service costs into the menu prices, and they make it very clear on the menu, and again on the receipt, that there's no expectation that you tip. You're right that it's a problem if they don't say that, but does that actually happen?
>>26459378
>but does that actually happen?
Well you can't actually confirm it if they don't tell you.
>>26458995
>That is slowly changing, though. Some restaurants have recently eliminated tipping and are building the cost into their menu prices.
Except the system is so fucked that restaurants who do that are getting fucked because the customers when polled have said that they literally don't trust employers to pass on the increased food revenue to the wait staff.

Oh wait that's considered radical totalitarian socialism in the states, isn't it?
>>26459403
>entitlement: the post
>>26458950
And this is where the argument always dies. Servers try to explain that you lose out on tables or you get fired when you dont make enough tips consistently, but the anti tippers just ignore it like nothing is happening. The problem is not the servers, its the companies, but they appreciate you for putting the blame on someone else.
>>26459386
if waitpeople weren't entitled shits who think it's ok for them to steal and vandalize food maybe people would do this
>>26459424

>>26459424

You don't get that money unless you provide good service.
Why is America so assbackwards?
>>26459438
Its not handouts. Thats the wages for a server you fuckhead. Servers only make a little over 2 bucks an hour.
>>26459435
Yes, truly restaurant servers are among the most entitled people in the world.
>>26459438
The problem with this is that the system is BUILT on them getting discretionary tips for them doing their job. You can argue that it should be changed, and a lot of people would agree, but the system is currently structured such that tips are part of the baseline pay. Until that's changed, it's not fair to punish the employees for the nature of the system.
>>26459468
>Servers only make a little over 2 bucks an hour.
Either get a better job or make a change then.
Customers shouldn't have to pay for good service you entitled little shit.

>>26459475
>Until that's changed, it's not fair to punish the employees for the nature of the system.
It's also unfair to punish the customers because they don't tip. There could be thousands of reasons why but servers only care about themselves.
>>26459478
>Customers shouldn't have to pay for good service you entitled little shit.
But THE BUSINESS ITSELF is saying "Hey, customers, we don't want to pay our employees minimum wages, so YOU do it for us, or else face the social stigma of being a cheapskate."
>>26459495
Whatever the reason a customer doesn't tip, the answer is "then you shouldn't be eating at a restaurant."
>>26459495
If the restaurant actually paid minimum wage this would be a non issue, but they literally refuse to do so.
>>26459507
>the answer is "then you shouldn't be eating at a restaurant."
This is why no one cares about you waiter mooks.
>>26459531
I'm not a waiter. Never have been. I'm just someone who knows how to participate in a fucking society. If you can't or won't tip, don't eat at a restaurant. Make your own food, so you don't have to worry about service costs.
People are arguing against a minimum wage and calling people entitled for asking as much?
Is this attitude really that common in the US?
>>26459499

The notion of some waiter doing that is hilarious, all that would happen is they'd get fired instantly and if he drew any attention to it he'd just get called a greedy prick who deserved to get fired.
>>26459467
But the people who "don't tip" usually don't care when their service is good. They just expect to receive good service when giving nothing to them in return.
>>26459555
>If you can't or won't tip, don't eat at a restaurant.
God damn it America, a person has a right to eat at a restaurant and not tip you jackass regardless of whether they want to or not.
Also there's simple human error, should someone be punished for a simple mistake?
Fuck off, expecting a tip should not be part of your or any society. People should only tip if they feel like it, not because they feel it's necessary for a good experience.

Right.
But the problem is, the RESTAURANTS have made a system where the idea of customers voluntarily electing to reward members with a token payment for good service has been corrupted.
Instead of giving waitstaff an incentive to be as awesome as humanly possible, above and beyond the basic requirements the position, INSTEAD, the restaurant industry has gone to the government and said "hey look, they get tips, so why should WE have to pay them the normal minimum wage, we should be allowed to pay them LESS than minimum wage" and then the RESTAURANTS turn around and guilt members of the public for not paying an additional minimum of 15% aside from the advertised cost of the food.
This isn't hard to understand.

>>26459033
>Minimum wage should be mandatory for every establishment in America.
The employer has to make up the difference if tips dont earn them enough.
But there is a benefit to tips, and thats getting paid in cash every night or every other night.
Walking home with ~$25-40 on a 5 hour shift isnt too bad, keeps gas in the car instead of having to ration for 2 weeks every single time you get paid. But then you get a whopping ~$240 added to your account every check and youre still fucking broke

But everything in America makes it the best place in the world anyone who questions that is jealous because they don't live in America and hate our freedom and democracy.
I heard about it on the news.
>>26458745
You forgot the amazing ability to sit in chairs.
>>26459764
That's the problem with freedom.
If everyone has it then no one does.
>>26458845
No it isn't. I've been a server for years in various restaurants, and my paychecks always come out at $0.00 after taxes.
When will /pol/ fucking leave?
Why does America have such shit workplace laws that tipping is mandatory? Why do they continue to profess themselves as the greatest country on earth when most of them are destitute because of getting fucked in the arse like this? Why does the very notion of raising the minimum wage bring Soviet era paranoia about socialism to the fore?

>went on a cruise ship for a vacation
>you were given the option to give all your waiters/cleaners tips at 15% that were automatically added to the bill so you wouldn't have to worry about giving them anything
>mfw even if you did it they would still expect tips from you
>>26459831
probably because the management wouldn't actually give them the money. cruise ship companies are notoriously shady towards their lower and mid-level employees
>>26459791
This is the most retarded attempt at trying to sound deep I've ever read. Wtf were you thinking when you typed this?

It's not hard to comprehend anon.
>>26459764
You're thinking of shitstain countries in the middle east. Every European country is laughing their asses off at how backwards and behind we are.
>>26459830
>very notion of raising the minimum wage bring Soviet era paranoia about socialism to the fore?
same reason people have the same fears when it comes to providing free access to higher education.
I shit you not, from the words of a woman who voted for Ted Cruz: "We shouldn't because then how would the professors get paid??"
Yes because thats where $24,000 per year from 1,400 students is going. Professor salaries.
>>26459886
>cannot into sarcasm and irony
>>26459886
europeans laugh their asses off while taxing the shit out of themselves to give money to anyone who shows up from the middle east despite their garbage economies. maybe if china was laughing at the us it would be worth giving a shit
>>26459830
>hy does the very notion of raising the minimum wage bring Soviet era paranoia about socialism to the fore?
Because Congress and the media are controlled by corporate interests. The more things the government provides, the less they can sell.

If that was the case nobody would bother complaining about it. Perhaps you should stop being retarded.

I don't give two shits about tips.
Go back to /pol/

no
Some of the people ITT are the most entitled pieces of shit, wow.
>>26459830
Because bottom-tier workers don't deserve such a high pay, it's not that fucking difficult to understand.
>>26459906
Yes, give every dropout free access to college, Bernout. See how that works for you.
I know this board if full of underage, but goddamn.

It is handouts you dipshit.
Employers should pay your fucking wage, not me.
>>26458440
So does tipping in XY do anything or not?
>>26458745
I hate this, that and that one too!
The fact Kalos and Hoenn have objectively a better features and mechanics selection makes me very upset and uncomfortable therefore I will make a list of good things from Gen 6 and call them useless shit without explaining why with the pure intention of shitposting loudly and show my frustration.
This is (You).

retard detected.
I'm paying for a service.
I don't pay extra to amazon just because the shipment gets here a day faster than usual.
Their reward is my continued patronage.
Waiters are entitled as fuck. If you're not making enough waiting, get a new job for fucks sake, don't take it out on your patrons.
>>26458978
That only happens if you don't study an already oversaturated field or a useless subject, like "English", Women's Studies, Gender Studies, Philosophy, and other bullshit.
This thread is further proof that tipfags are such self-absorbed entilted fucks they need to shit-up a a taiwanese children game in a cambodian comic internet site.
Kys pls.
>>26460256
Do it. I'll list everything it fucks up after words
>>26459041

What a loser. You get no tips for this poor service

This is literally telling people they can't go out to eat if they don't tip no matter what. Go fuck yourself.

ITT: Retards who don't actually understand how the economy works.
The minimum age to post on this board needs to be raised to at least 25.
>>26460398
Abilities and Natures, one of the most defining competitive features.
Also tutors, contests, confirmed the trend of post game battle facilities over the gens.
>>26460256
This, it's exactly how unovaborts react to other games
>>26460625
Anon... Tutors where in Crystal
You can't really credit Hoenn for the first postgame battle facility, the battle tower started in Crystal album too
Who cares about Contests
I'll give you abilities and th IV system, if they allowed for compatibly
>>26460602
??? How old are you?
>>26460642
Anon, Unova was good though. We all agree X and Y are shit
>>26460180
>Because bottom-tier workers don't deserve such a high pay

>too high pay
No one worthwhile respects you.
>>26459785
Sitting in chairs was cute as fuck, especialy turning your head when sitting on a bed.
>>26460180
See, this is what I mean. Absolutely terrified of a service that would empower and benefit the people. Do you think people who may not be able to afford to go to college/university but are otherwise academically able should miss out? Do you think your country should continue to perpetuate the cycle of poverty it has created? Do you have any idea how the university system works at all?
>>26460706
Anon, Unova was bad though. Only edgy kids likes it.
>>26460706
Can't we just agree that most people who like gen 5 liked the plot?
>>26460691
Crystal had a fucking one day per week if you wanted to purchase an elemental beam while the rest of the tutors were one time use. Probably it was too hard making more TM slots...
Emerald has introduced a better system.
Crystal's Battle Tower was the worst half made facilities, no auto levelling,
non sense hard mode, no prizes.
If anything Gen 3 as improved and convalidated it.
The contests are a hit or miss, honestly Hoenn system was definitely superior to Sinnoh which was very forceful on the DS touch screen feature part, ORAS Hoenn also made it easier but prettier kinda. Unova musicals were the worst contest adaptation with the Pokewood.
No hype, tedious, forced tutorial.
>>26460837
Contests would be cool if you could play it online. It would be funny to see a smogon page about contests and their own house rules to contests, like pokemon divided in tiers, banned moves and etc.
>>26458921
In Oregon they have the exact same minimum wage as everyone else, which in a few years will be up to $14.25 in Portland. Guaranteed they will still bitch about tips and I think they can go fuck themselves. I know its different in most states, but here in oregon it really is bullshit
>>26460935
*$14.75
i hate this country
>>26460837
Hey I just said they made it, not its the best
Oh yeah fuck musicals, but contents aren't/shouldn't be selling point
>>26460817
yes. That plus postgame.
>go out to eat with few people
>waitress splits the bill wrong, so it looks like two people didn't tip and the other two tipped way too much
>she gets upset but won't tell us what happened
>we leave another tip because it would be easier than trying to explain that she did the math wrong
>>26461058
No one's saying waitstaff are automatically smart, just that the "quasi-mandatory tipping" system is stupid.
>>26461071
its a byproduct of capitalism
Restaurants are one of the harder business to manage a budget on, so by dropping waitstaff pay for tipping, they can balance it better.
>>26461086
Say what you will about capitalism, it better than anything else there is.
>>26461058
that's her being dumb
>>26458845
If you don't live in America why are you speaking?
Kek. Ignorance at its finest. That is 100% true
>>26461120
>Say what you will about capitalism, it better than anything else there is.
I said it was neither good nor bad, but run rampant you'll see more shit like Monsanto, or for a fictional reference, the caldari state
>>26460706
But X and Y are pretty *_*
>>26460796
Literally one of my favorite things in ORAS is sitting on a bed with Looker. He only has 1 line of dialogue but the music is there and Looker is the one thing that gives me the feels in all of Pokemon. And the Looker post-game plot was the best thing in XY, aside from a few new pokemon, like Yveltal.
My only real complaint about XY and ORAS is that the post-game battle facility is so simple. I want the Frontiers like in Emerald, Platinum, HG/SS. I love all the different rules and varying styles of play.
And for those complaining about contests, they're not mandatory so I don't get the big deal. They're a way to earn berries, to get a cool animation when your mon enters battle, and a fun alternative way to train your pokemon, for those that want to do it.
>>26458914
Someone has to have that job. If no one became a waiter, we just wouldn't have waiters.
>>26459028
You mean like gratuity for large parties at a restaurant?
>>26459386
Okay, then I won't go out to eat. Hopefully millions of people do the same so people like this will be forced to suck cocks for a living. Then they can get all the tips they want.
>>26460300
>a useless subject, like "English"
If you can't find a way to make money after having passed a course of study which SHOULD give you a much higher level of the use of the English language and knowledge of its history and literature, then you're probably the type of actual autist who can amass incredible amounts of information but needs physical help taking a shower every morning.
>>26461658
The useless thing about English majors is that they tend to try to make a living writing novels, but it's, as anon said, already saturated, and only the very lucky or the incredibly skilled can make much of a living using their English degree. Even my English major friends are aware of that but have confidence in their skills. So far only one of them has a published novel.
>>26460272
>IMPLYING THE MONEY YOU PAY FOR THE MEAL GOES TO THE SERVERS
You're a fucking idiot. Restaurants essentially do not pay their servers. That's why people tip in the first place.
>>26458527
>the most profitable franchise in the world features the message that money is bad
I don't think so, Tim. It was about class distinctions.
>>26461120
Capitalism is fucking awful, though. We're staring down the barrel of a mass extinction event objectively because of capitalist systems. Virtually every economic model is better than capitalism and its immoral focus on short-term profit.
>>26462174
>writing novels
No, you try to get get a job writing copy or editing or some technical shit, writing novels is something I do during time I might otherwise spend playing video games or dicking around places like right here.
Its like being a photography major thinking you're going to get rich taking pictures of flowers in the park, that's something you can do and maybe make a name for yourself and if you're REALLY lucky make some money on, but most of the work out there is gonna be shit like taking photos of food for magazines and websites or doing weddings or something.
>>26462299
I don't think pure altruism can result in a world with the computers and internet we're using right now, even if that world would be an objectively more humane and ideal world.
I think we need a mix of many ideas, there has to be some incentive for individual initiative, but what that's mutated into is an engine that creates nothing but cash flow at the cost of many people having an opportunity to have a secure simple life working for a living and minding their own business.
>>26460429
It's all the dead skin it collects.
>>26462325
Hard to get rich doing magazine columns, though, that's what I mean. You can do ok writing for a magazine or being an editor, and you can try to make it big by getting individually published, cuz that's the only way to make a lot of money as a writer. I know, the arts are a strange profession, but too many people try to get a degree in one of the arts and think they'll become a known name by being in the business. Same with acting.
>go out to eat
