<p>You tip everyone. It goes a long way, think you have to work a waiter/delivery/stripper &nbsp;job to appreciate that. I hook up my local delivery guys (foodwise) and I get free sodas, &quot;hey we had this pizza a guy called in and didnt pick up&quot; free, its just good karma man. You consistently dont tip your delivery guy, I've heard stories of what they do to food... </p>

<p>Im wondering if I fucked up, so maybe someone can guide me.&nbsp; My wife cracked her tooth in half this morning and I had to scramble to get her to a dentist.&nbsp; At first, our regular dentist receptionest was doing the while &quot;We are booked for a few weeks&quot; busllshit, so I was looking around for a new dentist that could handle the emergency.&nbsp; The best I could find was a guy who could see her tomorrow.&nbsp; So I called back our regular dentist and explained the situation again and that I was going to look for a new dentist and they suddenly had an opening!&nbsp; So, I took off work and rushed there and they saw her right away.&nbsp; My question is:&nbsp; Would you tip them?&nbsp; </p>

If you tried, chances are they wouldn't take it. There are some jobs that require impartiality, and tips make that suspect.

<p>My question is:&nbsp; Would you tip them?&nbsp; </p><p>nope, not a dentist or dental assistant....Especially when they didn't take your emergency on the first attempt.&nbsp; people waiting at dentists and doctor's offices can usually understand they may have to wait a little longer&nbsp;so people with real emergencies can be tended to</p>

You should always tip the copy girl a&nbsp;few bucks.&nbsp;I've noticed when you go back,they are more attentive and actually do a competent job, just because they know you are going to help pay for their lunch.

<p>I stiffed a waitress on a tip for the first time in my life last week. If the service sucks, I'll still usually leave something, but this pissed me off...</p><p>I went to a diner for a late lunch between appointments and to&nbsp;get some work done&nbsp;on my computer while I was eating. The diner wasn't busy, but it wasn't empty either. There were at least 6 other tables occupied when I came in. I got my food quickly, but then in less than 10 minutes, the waitress stopped by my table no less than 6 times not to ask if I needed anything, but if I were finished, and the busboy grabbed my plate at least three times, twice with my fork in hand, asking if I were done. At one point, the waitress took an order from a new table, stopped by mine to ask if I were done, went to the kitchen to put the order in and came back to my table to again ask if I were done. Mind you, at no time was my plate less than half full. Finally, I also noticed that she wasn't doing the same to the tables around me that already had their food when I sat down. So I sucked down the remainder of my lunch, paid at the register and left.</p><p>Total time from getting out of my car to getting back in: 25 minutes.</p>

<p>Even if the service is lousy, I'll tip.&nbsp; The way I see it, if you are not making food for yourself, you are taking a chance and giving up any preconceived notion that you will have <em>exactly</em> what you want when you have someone else prepare and deliver your food.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I will not tip those jars in Dunkin Donuts, Subways, Starbucks... etc.&nbsp; I think that is just a bullshit recent trend, at least the last 10 years.</p><p>I will also not tip the guys who come in and hook up the cable.&nbsp; Isn't that their job?&nbsp; They are in the instillation line of work.&nbsp; Would you tip a electrician?&nbsp; A plumber?&nbsp; A construction worker?&nbsp; Thanks for putting in that 5th floor beam.&nbsp; Here's $20.</p>

i leave heavy tips on my tattoo artist...i've sat for 8 hours, spent 700 then tipped him 100. but he owns the place...he seemed kind of stunned at the tip, but everytime i want some custom work done i dont have to wait long. the first piece i got done took about 3 months to draw up, now he can get it done in a week.

<p>i have a question</p><p>why do we tip waiters/waitresses more then we do delivery guys ??</p><p>standard 15-20 % is the norm for tipping at resturants but most people ususally only give 2-3 bucks to the pizza or chinese delivery guy</p><p>it seems like it should be the other way around no ???</p><p>the delivery guy is driving from the place of your order all the way to your house while the waiter/waitress is just walking back from the kitchen i know we're spending more time in a resturant and they constantly keep checking up on you and serving you but if nothing else shouldnt it be even ???</p>

I tip everybody; waiters, waitresses, delivery guys (even the UPS guy), and even the guy that pumps my gas.&nbsp; Hell, I just threw the girls at the bakery a tip for working so hard on Easter Sunday.&nbsp; I always think to myself &quot;what is it worth to me to have someone serve me my food, bring me something I'm too lazy to pick up, or perform some service I'd rather not do?&quot;&nbsp; Then I tip them based on that. <br />

if the service is bad I under tip. But a night out like last night, where I didnt need to wait for my next beer, or the next beer came as the last of the current beer was going down I over tip. At times i have walked over to waitresses handed them the $$$ and told them they did a great job. this way when i go back i am sure to get the same level of service.

the food delivery guys know me know, and they know what a good tip they are getting where they come here so I too get free diet cokes with my pizza, free meso soup with my sushi and free egg roll with my chincky food.

Tipping makes the world go round smoother.
