return, excluding any given months where total tip income was less than $20.

Is this common practice in Chinese restaurants? If not, how come you require
customers to follow "common practice"? |

发帖数: 3888 | 2 moronic argument. Just because someone might try to minimize their taxes
doesn't mean you can get out of paying them for their services.
BTW, no one can avoid paying income tax on tips. IRS will charge income tax
on tips even if the waiter doesn't actually receive any. You should learn
about the subject before you talk. Try googling "income tax on tips" |

这里的人估计收入大都在6位数以上吧，还斤斤计较那么一点点的小费，真的是一帮扶

发帖数: 9007 | 4 The waiter/waitress industry argue that we need to tip them adequate tips
regardless of what happens during the meal because this is the "common
practice", so I just ask do them do the common practice which is indeed
required by the law?
People usually do not say others are dirty if there is crap on their own
faces. This is common practice I think.
Btw, how does IRS enforce tax on tips in Chinese restaurants? Most of them
are cash via changing hands and never get reported.

发帖数: 9007 | 5 The payment on the meal is transaction fee. It's like a printed contract.
Tips is for service and attitude. If the customers feel very upset at the
restaurant, I do not see any reason they have to tip.
Rich does not mean over-generosity.

发帖数: 3888 | 6 Under very extreme circumstances, with extremely poor or even offensive
service, yes it's OK to tip very little or none at all. But minimum service
should at least get minimum tip (10%).
The point is you should tip based on the service, not based on the server's
tax return. You're not the tax code enforcer. Even if they're going to
prison for tax evasion, that's no reason for you to not pay for their
service.

发帖数: 9007 | 7 I will gladly tip generously if I feel reasonably happy during the service.
The point is, make me reasonably happy!
I will not tip to that "good practice" amount if I feel not well-served, or
even upset for a dinner!
If someone throw that "best practice" to me to force me tip, I will counter-
attack, "did you do your best practice"?

发帖数: 8711 | 9 Also I agree the diner should not pay the tip if the server is rude, same as
not paying for the dish if there are bugs in it. |

发帖数: 9007 | 11 I mentioned "reasonable", and I am not a person difficult to satisfy. I
think most of us are.
So would you pay for the dish if it makes you throw out or even has bugs in
it?
