To Tip or Not to Tip? Are North American Restauranteurs Stiffing Their Staff?
By Irene Fantopoulos
From the film Reservoir Dogs to ordinary folk like you and me, whether to tip and how much is the question that plagues North Americans. Sure there is the issue of how much do we/should we tip hairstylists, manicurists, cabbies and the mail man, but they aren’t part of this discussion.
I don’t necessarily mind tipping for excellent or fairly good service. But what I do mind is when restaurateurs prescribe that I must tip or be a social pariah. Why do wait staff appear to have just escaped from the pages of a Dickensian scene – hungry and needy.
