You cannot be serious??? I'm OF COURSE using the services of the restaurant(or whatever) is providing not the WAITER! In civilized countries this sort of thing is illegal. In civilized countries the government forces the restaurants to show consumers the ACTUAL full price of the meal. It OF COURSE includes taking the order and bringing it to you...

Not my problem US law is ....ed up.
However, if there is a law stating that I HAVE TO give tip, then of course I'm not going to break it. I'll just tip the minimum required by law. Please show me that government law.
I really don't care at all if the waiter is loosing money because if I don't tip. Again, not my problem.
The waiter can choose another job if she doesn't like it. And if she is being rude due to not tipping, I know not to visit that particular joint anymore. Easy
I guess no need to link the "I don't believe in tipping" video?
