Do you tip?

[Gandalf]

i tip when i am on holiday (strange really)

but when i am in the states & sum guy pours me a beer, why the fk should i tip him for that? took him like 10 seconds & its his fkin job

It seems he is earning $2.14 per hour. I agree with you, but it seems the Americans still have a thing for slavery. It's just that the punters are expected to prop up the wages instead. It's a crappy system obviously. Civilised countries don't have this kind of nonsense.

The UK tip system seems to be based on merit. The US one is based on a case of "tip or the waiters die hungry".
