    What about the Lowe's clerk? The UPS people? Let the companies pay their own staff.

    Tipping is almost unheard of in Europe and that is why French waiters have such a reputation for being jack weeds. They have no reason to be nice.

    Hardware clerks are nice and they aren't tipped. They are expected to provide customer service or go serve someone else's customer's

    Tipping in Europe is just rounding up when you pay the bill.

    "Jack weeds" Never heard of that term before; I'll have to remember it for future use.

    Think 3rd party for 2024 folks. Clean up America.

    Once I tell you that we agree to disagree there will be no more discussion between us in the thread so please don't waste your time continuing to argue your points because I will not respond.

    It is better. That is why they don't tip big there. They also tend to have less servers to pay.
