A seemingly innocent tip jar, snatched away from its rightful home, leaving patrons and staff alike stunned and speculating about the audacious culprit behind the caper.
It seems like the customer is responsible for a lot these days and I come to find myself questioning situations where it might be appropriate to tip. Obviously when it is a type of hospitality service you should tip, but what about when you get yourself some self-serve ice cream?
Friends who lived or visited different places in Europe have told me about the no tipping lifestyle over there, and from an experience with a bunch of drunk Brits at a Ricky Hatton fight in Vegas, I experienced it a bit.
I know tipping is how wait staff gets their money, and businesses pay them less per hour because of it. This guy, Jay Porter, got rid of tipping in his restaurant. Completely.
