how much do you tip?

[theresa113 0]

This debate happens every few months on here and I am always in shock at the lack of social graces and business knowledge that people possess.I am known for being a good tipper. When I play at my home game, the dealers are rooting for me to win. When there are people who are playing that I haven't played with, they will let me know what their style is. They look out for me. It is a win, win situation. And because I am a good tipper, the other good players who also tip well, look out for me as well. I usually leave the game at midnight or so because of my work schedule. However, there is a whole crowd that shows up around 2PM. One night I stayed late. A guy with a very large wad of cash comes in and sits at my table. One guy mouths to me to be careful and whispers that this guy is all in on every hand. Well, I left with a couple of hundred bucks from this wild player. People look out for each other when you garner respect because you treat others right. Tipping dealers is treating others right. You don't work for free and neither should they. I frequent certain places and they know I tip well. I go to this adult arcade place with my son. The counter could be filled with lots of people waiting for a beer, etc. If they see me in line, they will nod coffee? and I will say yes and I will get mine right away. They don't even charge me for the coffee anymore but I still tip. When my son and I go there and we haven't been in a while, they will come to us and tell us the new games and if we are interested in any, they will keep an eye out for when it is available and let us know.When I use to deliver pizzas in college I would always deliver to the house that tips first. If you were not a tipper, you were getting your pizza last if I had 2 or more to deliver. Be smart guys. Remember, you get what you pay for. Pay nothing, get nothing. Pretty pathetic if you ask me.And again... chicks hate cheapskates.

We do to. We order online. The approximate times will say 45 minutes and we have ours in 20-25.

there is a bar I go to quite a bit and I tip 25-30% and I always have my meal there, and as soon as I walk in the door there is a cold beer waiting for me in "my seat" which the waitress never seats anyone in. It is worth every penny.I went to the casino last night and there were people that would rake in a 30 BB pot and then not even tip the dealer a dollar or something. Don't be an ass clown.

My question in regard to tipping is this.Why does the burden of remunerating poker dealers shift from the casino, which is reponsible for the employment of said dealers, to the poker players, who have no contractual relationship what-so-ever with said dealers, simply because the casino and dealers have entered into a contract whereby the dealers agree to perform a service for a smaller-than-sufficient sum of money? The argument of remuneration is one that belongs solely between the employer and employee, in my opinion. This applies to every job, not just poker dealing.Beyond that, the receipient of a service may, at his or her own discretion, see fit to reward the provider of said service. This reward should not be considered a supplement to the remuneration of the service provider unless the contractual relationship for providing the service is entered into directly between the provider and receipient. This reward should be considered a "thank you" for a job well done. One is under no obligation to say "thank you" in any manner or at any time. In certain circumstances it may be considered impolite but I have yet to find myself in a situation where I am obligated by something other than social convention to thank someone.Having said that; if the winner of a poker tournament felt that the dealers of that tournament where above average in calibur and effort (read, no one should be expected to be perfect) then I would see no reason, other than personal preference, of which one is not superior to another, that the winner would not leave a tip of a size he or she deems appropriate to say "thank you" in the manner that he or she wishes. The same should apply to each and every participant in the tournament, not just the eventual winner. The winner will undoubtedly find him or herself in a better financial position to provide a larger financial reward and would be correct in considering that in arriving a tip amount. If, in his or her own opinion, the winner did not feel the level of service received warrants a "thank you" then the winner should be at complete liberty to decline leaving a tip. Others are free to think what they will of those that decline to tip but again, that is their own personal preference and not superior to the preference(s) of the one who does or does not leave a tip.If I won $750,000 and felt that the dealers did a good job throughout the tournament I would probably leave something in the neighbourhood of $37,500 (or 5% of my winnings). If I won $7,500,000 I would probably leave $75,000 (or 1% of my winnings). If I won $25,000 I would probably leave $250. If I didn't cash, I would probably leave $100. This is all assuming I am playing a big buy-in tournament, of course.But, like was said before, this is a problem I would most certianly love to be facing.

How the hell would I know what to tip when you make that much money? Come on!

Gratuity isn't "charity" you tip censored. Charity? I don't even know how to react to that. I know, I will add I strongly dislike Abbaddabba to my signature.

Look up the word gratuity in a thesaurus. Notice how "donation" is a synonym? Great.There seems to be some fuzzy barrier in most people's mind where they equivocate moral behavior with their own interest. If you're doing it because the tangible benefits outweigh the costs, you're in the same situation as everyone else.Do it because they'll treat you well? Self interest.Do it because they'll give you comps? Self interest.Do it because some pasty, inbred looking chick will think more highly of you? ... Debatably self interest. I'm not trying to tell people that it isnt in their self interest to tip. I tip to not look like a prick, and when going somewhere that ill be revisiting; for a variety of other reasons mentioned above. For all of the simpletons who're squinting and furrowing their retarded brows imaginging someone who could be so evil as to not tip, you can put your concerns to rest - i do.To chastize Hachem for choosing not to tip inordinate sums of money after winning the WSOP (who comes from a nation where tipping isnt a social norm) is ridiculous.

even after debating in this thread today, i did something i've never done before this morning:stiffed the waitress at denny's.after living with someone that was a dealer and gaining a newfound respect for people in the service industry, i've also realized that the best way to get people to learn to do their job better is to show them that they're doing a bad job by not paying them for doing their bad job.wife ordered coffee and water, never got the coffee. asked for grapes for the baby before our meal game. grapes came with th emeal, only after we asked again. once our meal came, we pointed out the coffee mistake, and the coffee was still on our bill. we asked for another plate to give the baby some of our food, she had to eat off of the table.that = no tip. i didn't feel like complaining to management, i just hope that she'll learn that if you do a bad job, you don't get paid.

I am not sure that you could ever recover from the Charity statement. My sig stays the same. I am not chastising Hachem- the 100 dollar tip says enough, no chastising is needed. When I receive a bad tip when I know I clearly did not deserve one I do one thing- I tell myself, F it, he or she is just cheap. Because really, that could be the only reason. Tipping is not some big secret, the percentages are not some big secret, it is a industry standard, that everybody is aware of. I couldn't care less if you tip or not- your attitude and outlook on it is what pissed me off.
