    Default Tip the cook, not the server

    Servers do jackshit and get more cash and whine about it. Cooks work their asses off and never get tips.

    Cooks also get paid a higher salary
    Tips are usually split between staff members and not kept by the server (depends on the place)
    Cooks don't interact with customers

    Don't tip anyone.

    It's such a stupid social norm that I constantly avoid. Haven't experienced any repercussions since and have saved tons of money in the process

    If you're going to tip, why not tip everyone who ever services you? Waiters are no special...

    Cooks get paid quite a bit and have no interaction with customers.

    I agree. Why not tip the supermarket cashier? Your local cop? Give Durant a tip after a game? Tip your mom after dinner.

    at many restaurants the servers give a portion of their tips to the cooks, busboys and other staff.

    Cooks do not get tipped out, just busboys, hosts, and bartenders.

    I wish professions that didn't expect tipping would abolish tipping and just pay their damn workers a good wage for giving good customer service. Tipping perpetuates racism and sexism.

    I usually leave good tips. Especially if the service is good along with the food, but it does annoy me.

    Cooks make 100% of their wage from the restaurant whereas the server only makes 40% or less of their wage from the restaurant, and the rest from tips.

    they still by law get paid minimum wage regardless, which is no less nor more than the same people who help you at retail stores and in other similar customer service areas.

    this whole "if you don't tip then they don't make any money" logic being passed around is such a crock of shit.

    I know, but I feel servers should get paid a little more than people in retail customer service. My wife works retail, I konw how it goes there. They're underpaid as well as far as that goes. But there are tons of jobs like this.
