That’s okay, I’m probably the one who got everyone off on this tangent by thinking that he meant 10% but gave 1% - when the report indicates that he tips like Mr. Pink from Reservoir Dogs - 1% is his customary tip.
It’s idiots like this that would suggest switching to a European-style tipping schedule - automatic tip on bill or professionalizing the restaurant industry so that the tips are built into the bill (but that then requires that the restaurants don’t screw with the tips - something that all too many do, particularly in the catering business).
I’m pretty skeptical of the tip story. The picture was posted on Reddit a week or two ago as an example of a shitty customer. As it circulated later on other sites it had the attached story of a wall street banker shitting on working people. It seems to me that it’s just another story from the internet.
