Indeed! I never even knew it was an issue until I started following DiningBuzz!. And some coworkers I was talking about it with didn't, either. They didn't even know many other countries don't have a tipping culture!

Of course, the same coworkers thought it was ridiculous when I told them what tipping is expected to be in New York...
