My friends are always stating, "I'm a college student and I'm too broke to tip". My thing is these are mostly college students trying to make money.
I'd say that I'm a big tipper. Why because I have worked in the food service industry and I know how things can be sometimes. I've seen how it is to be a customer and a worker. True there are occasions where the server is just bad, but most of the time it's beyond their control. I can tell many stories of how dirty people can get in the kitchen.
I usually give around 20%. If the service wasn't to my liking, I give 15%. However, I never give anything lower, because they are already getting a minimal hourly wage.
