Yeah. About 20%. Servicing the public isn't easy to do a lot of times. Personally think they earn and deserve every penny.

I tip the hostess, too. About 35% of the diner bill. After all, she took down our name, and handed us a pager.

When the busboy swings by to clean the table across from us, I jump up and hand him a twenty, too. I mean, none of the other cheap fucks dining will give him anything.

I tip 15 - 20% when dining in at a regular restaurant.

I have one experience on tipping.......my 83 yr old mom loves eating at cracker barrel......... not my choice, yet hers. So we go to lunch with mom and my wife having the normal service at first.....but wait, this girl was very spot on and very attentive, unlike most of the waitresses I have experienced there. Something told me to give her a very big tip......I gave her 60.00, I know an idiot right? More than the actual total bill. She came back to our table in tears as she needed the exact money to make a rent payment. I don't know why I did it, yet .....I did and I did not regret doing so. I think you should tip what ever you feel the experience was for you. It obviously made a difference in this persons life. She was very genuine in her appreciation....You may say I am a Sap, it made me feel better as a person.......:0008

I think that is great! The best part about it, is that you aren't in here trying to make others feel like shit because they don't meet your standards on how or why you should tip.

the service industry is tough. 20% across the board and many times much more if the server goes above and beyond. With that said, I've never tipped on take out. There is no "service" to tip. Bagging the meal and ringing it up? I guess that means I need to tip at the grocery store, local library, Best Buy, etc etc etc.

Usually 20% But if the service was bad,I'll leave pocket change. Enough coins to make it a hassle to pick up.I figure that will make the waitress even more aware of how we were ignored. Embarrasses the hell out of my girlfriend but it's only been that bad a couple of times.moon1

I tip servers 20% minimum unless extraordinarily bad but that hasn't happened in a long time. When out drinking i always tip well.
