I tip between 15% and 20% depending on the service, the food, the ambiance... If I didn't enjoy myself, the tip is lower.

I don't care that waiters make less and have to live on tips. That really isn't my problem. A tip is simply To Insure Promptness.

I like it where I am now. The service charge is included in the bill so I don't have to worry about it.

As for tipping other service industry types... I see no need to tip a hairstylist, delivery person or taxi driver. Quite frankly, I think that Americans over tip and tip too often.
