The amount of people here who say they don't tip amazes me. 4x4 nailed it. Yeah, you may get one or two good nights a week, the other nights usually stink. I worked in bars for years, and without tips wouldn't have made anything.

That said, I tend to tip really well. The two reasons are 1) most of these people make crap. It's not even minimum wage, it's 2.13 plus tips. And 2) I like getting good service. Yeah yeah, someone will say "you should get good service regardless blah blah" reality is you get what you pay for.

I tip about 50% for haircuts, and a bare minimum of a buck a drink at the bar. For restaurants etc, 20% if service is good. True, if the service is bad I'll short them on a tip, but I don't just leave it out there for them to wonder if I was just some cheap prick. I'll make it a point to let them know before I leave that their service sucked and they didn't get a tip.
