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.

I tend to follow this same guideline. I do throw a couple of bucks at hairstylist, delivery and taxi though, but I don't base it on a percentage, its usually 3$ across the board.
