“Staff Forgot About Us, I Didn’t Tip”

Spread the love

It seems that everyone has an opinion about tipping culture, but no one can agree on the rules. What is good service? How big of a percentage does it deserve? These questions are hard to answer definitively, especially when people’s livelihoods are at stake.

However, Reddit user RoseKaKe believes he and his wife have just had an experience so bad that it wasn’t worth anything. The couple were repeatedly ignored by the staff and their night didn’t really start for nearly half an hour. So after the bill arrived, they got up without leaving a single penny.

Now, the man wants to know if it was the right move, so he’s asking the members of r/AITAH to share their opinions on the situation.
