    In Germany it’s pretty common to tip a bit, even if not nearly as much as in the US. I wouldn’t know what to tip for a 300€ order though because… What the fuck, did they order cocaine?

            Yeah you see this is why we’re calling tip culture toxic, if it makes you unable to appreciate someone doing you a favour, no matter how small, you are the problem, not the others with their weird “minimal wage actually sufficient to live” society. Most often, we tip 1 or 2 euros to our waiter if we enjoyed our meal, as a small thank you, and because we know they can otherwise get paid a true living wage just from the price we paid in the first place.

          No fuck them I say. They cannot even be bothered to tip in € when they come here. If I ever visit their godforsaken land again I will tip them in € out of spite

      The fun thing is that we’d be expected to pay between 15 and 20 percent on such an order.
