      It’s not socially acceptable to not tip servers in a full service restaurant in the USA. It’s becoming a required social norm to tip fast casual.

      The pandemic really changed the tipping norms in the USA.

      No. I actually kinda do. Like if I’m out with friends I literally get judged if I tip poorly let alone if I don’t tip at all which is social suicide.

      And if I have a coupon for a meal, say 50% or something like that I still have to tip on the original amount before the discount was applied.

      Moreover, and most importantly in some restaurants tipping is the only source of income the server gets. Regardless of how I feel about it I am still responsible for this person’s wage.

      I hate tipping culture.
