Lol don't pretend you know.
Also, learn what a little exaggeration is.
Also, tip your waiter, and stop being a cheap cunt.

Imagine living thinking that you only get a good service if you tip. Must be tough living in 'murrica. The developed wolrd don't think waiters should live off charity so they pay a living wage. You don't need to tip if you live in a country were people are workers with rights instead of slaves.

It's not "only".
It's just most common.
Also I'm not from 'Murica.

It's more common only if your living depends on tips. If your living depends on the restaurant staying open and there are no tips, you'll have good service anyways. Because a restaurant with bad service won't stay open for long. For someone who says has seen a lot of world, you seem really closed in the 'murrican mindset of tipping.

So you've worked in the hospitality industry and recieved tips before?

So what you are saying is that to treat well the customers you are serving, you need to get tipped. Do I get it right? That... doesn't make you a good person at all. But hey, nothing is more 'murrican than putting for sale everything, even kindness.

That's what you infer?
