I would tip at least $5, a bit more if the service was good.

I've been to a Chinese restaurant in DC. Maybe it was the same one.

Been looking at Syracuse stuff and I came across this. Not only does this new amphitheater look like an excellent facility, look at where it's located - all that green - and blue around it. The shot at the end is just gorgeous. This guy knows how to fly a drone!

Syracuse is my kind of town.

I would tip about 6-10 bucks depending on service. I'm usually a very generous tipper, almost always 25% or more. I feel bad for them, that's how they make most of their money. Sometimes, it's embarrassing going out with my family because they always tip something like 10% or so and sometimes less. I usually add a few bucks to the tip myself when they leave that embarrassingly low tip.

I don't think I've ever tipped a person in my life, unless you count letting taxi drivers or delivery boys/girls keep change (usually because I'm too lazy to take it).

Do waiters/waitresses make a better wage over there? Here, they almost rely on tips for income, as some places pay them as little as $2-3 an hour.

I've been told that waitstaff in the US often earn below the minimum wage, but that isn't the case here. A restaurant here has to pay an employee the full minimum wage, and it's illegal for a restaurant to use tips as a substitute.

No way would any company get away with paying their workers $3 an hour. That's just ridiculous.

I definitely prefer now over being a kid. I had very few friends in high school, an almost non-existent social life, and wasn't very happy living at home. It sucked being at the mercy of your parents or others when it came to catching a ride somewhere.

I do miss all the free time I had, but then I ended up getting bored and depressed. Now it's the complete opposite where I barely have time to do much, but I have much more freedom.

I feel bad for them too and tip no less than 20% unless the service is subpar.
