Believe it or not, students don't have much money, so they are not going to waste it on tips. I would rarely tip as a student.

Even when I was at my poorest, I would always tip. If you can't tip, don't go to a restaurant or a bar."In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed. But they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love. They had 500 years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."

See, you have a completely different mentality to tipping.
Besides, do you tip in a McDonalds or other such fast food chains?Speaking of Erith:

Here students are great tippers. But, then again, I go to baylor
And my favorite is when Black people compliment me on my service and then don't leave a tip

Provost,
McDonald's and fast food chains don't wait on you. You wait on them."In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed. But they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love. They had 500 years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce?

My wage when waiting was $2.25 an hour. Waitstaff depend on tips to make their living."In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed.

Tipping is a great form of income redistribution,
tip big
tip cash
and don't make a mess.
According to my waitstaff friends here, there is no noticable difference between different ethnicities, or ages.Be the bid!Comment

You know, in a thread that is about the tipping habits of various classes and races of people, this is likely the most stupidly offensive thing written. "Still good looking..." Sheesh!Originally posted by monolith94
She was probably 29 (I'm 18) but she was still good looking and seemed like a nice person
Anyway, let me join in the carnage with my list of types of people who are lousy tippers:
1. Teenagers and College kids. Caveat: Unless they are on the first date, a Valentines Day date, or on the date where they are going to ask the girl to marry him. Otherwise, y'all suck major arse.
2. Old people. "Here sonny, I've got something for you" she says as she hands me a nice shiny quarter.
3. Everybody else.
And yes, we upper middle-class white guys are major butt-wipes when it comes to retailing: we know what we want, we don't want to be bothered with the stupid patter about your wonderful warranty plans, and we don't have the time to waste looking around for all the extras. Deal with it.Comment

Well obviously. There's no reason whatsoever why 29-year-old people wouldn't be good looking.She was probably 29 (I'm 18) but she was still good looking and seemed like a nice person…
