Nice Guy Eddie:
C'mon, throw in a buck!
Mr. Pink:
Uh-uh, I don't tip.
Nice Guy Eddie:
You don't tip?
Mr. Pink:
I don't believe in it.
Nice Guy Eddie:
You don't believe in tipping?
Mr. Blue:
You know what these chicks make? They make ****.
Mr. Pink:
Don't give me that. She don't make enough money, she can quit.
Nice Guy Eddie:
I don't even know a ****ing Jew who'd have the balls to say that. Let me just get this straight: you don't ever tip, huh?
Mr. Pink:
I don't tip because society says I have to. Alright, I mean I'll tip if somebody really deserves a tip. If they really put forth the effort, I'll give them something extra. But I mean, this tipping automatically, it's for the birds. I mean, as far as I'm concerned they're just doing their job.
Mr. Blue:
Hey, this girl was nice.
Mr. Pink:
She was OK. But she wasn't anything special.
Mr. Blue:
What's special? Take you in the back and suck your dick?
Nice Guy Eddie:
I'd go over twelve percent for that.
Mr. Pink:
Look, I ordered coffee, alright? And we been here a long ****ing time and she's only filled my cup three times. I mean, when I order coffee I want it filled six times.
Mr. Blonde:
Six times? Well, what if she's too ****ing busy?
Mr. Pink:
The words "too ****ing busy" shouldn't be in a waitress' vocabulary.
Nice Guy Eddie:
Excuse me Mr. Pink, but the last ****ing thing you need's another cup of coffee.
Mr. Pink:
Jesus Christ I mean, these ladies aren't starving to death. They make minimum wage. You know, I used to work minimum wage and when I did I wasn't lucky enough to have a job that society deemed tipworthy.
Mr. Blue:
You don't care if they're counting on your tips to live?
Mr. Pink:
[rubbing his middle finger and thumb together] You know what this is? It's the world's smallest violin playing just for the waitresses.
Mr. White:
You don't have any idea what you're talking about. These people bust their ass. This is a hard job.
Mr. Pink:
So is working at McDonald's, but you don't feel the need to tip them, do ya? Well why not? They're serving you food. But no, society says don't tip these guys over here, but tip these guys over here. That's bullshit!
Mr. White:
Waitressing is the number one occupation for female non-college graduates in this country. It's the one job basically any woman can get, and make a living on. The reason is because of their tips.
Mr. Pink:
Fuck all that.
Mr. Brown:
[laughing] Jesus Christ.
Mr. Pink:
I mean I'm very sorry the government taxes their tips, that's ****ed up. That ain't my fault. It would appear to me that waitresses are one of the many groups the government ****s in the ass on a regular basis. I mean, if you show me a piece of paper that says the government shouldn't do that, I'll sign it. Put it to a vote, I'll vote for it. But what I won't do is play ball. And this non-college bullshit you're givin' me, I got two words for that: learn to ****in' type, 'cause if you're expecting me to help out with the rent you're in for a big ****in' surprise.
Mr. Orange:
He's convinced me. Gimme my dollar back!
Where do you stand? Do you agree with Mr. Pink?

Tipping is not a big thing in New Zealand.
Tipping in New Zealand is considered a true βmerit-basedβ system, as it is not necessary to tip at restaurants, hotels, bars, salons, or spas, as well as in a taxi, unless the service exceeds all expectations. Employees in New Zealand typically earn a decent wage, so tipping is, in fact, a true sign of a job well done.
My fridge broke down a few days ago. Repairmen are hard to pin down to a time, but my guy turned up right on time and did such a quick efficient job, that I gave him a few more dollars than he asked so he could have a few beers on me. That's how it works here. -

When you deal with any worker in customer service you're a fool not to tip. They can do an average job or they can do an excellent job.
And never piss of a person who handles your food. Just common sense. If you intend on returning to an establishment you're a fool not to tip.

With any service worker? Sounds a bit like bribing someone to do the job they're paid to do. Nobody tips their cashier at the grocery shopβ¦
I always tip wait staff (I know of too many restaurants who take advantage). -

No, you tip where there is a personal service. A cashier at the market just rings up merchandise. That's not personal service. I'm referring to someone who handles your food, washes your car, cuts your hair. It may make the difference between good service and excellent service, especially if you're a repeat customer.
