@Grumblesock @CobaltSasquatch 15% USA nationwide since the 1970s. you have to go back to the 1960s for it to be 10%.

@sun @Grumblesock @CobaltSasquatch doesn't even make sense here now. Servers make regular minimum wage here and tipping is still expected- 15% is the cheapskate option... I don't even get why the % goes up over time, like dude inflation is already factored in since it's a percent of the total.

I don't understand it. The waitress literally tells the cook what to make and carries the plate. She doesn't grow the grain for the bun, she doesn't raise or slaughter the cow for the burger. She doesn't harvest and cut the potatoes for the fries. She doesn't even cook it. Why should she get 25% of the cost of an item she had almost no role in making or preparing
