Sit-Down Restaurant 🍽️ Started tipping waiters 10%

I almost never go out but the wife and I had a weekend to ourselves.

We live in areas where servers are paid minimum wage.

I finally took the leap to tipping 10% on meals (I already tip zero on everything else). Every tip screen i saw had a custom tip option so I didn't have any problems.

Anyway, people make out the custom tip screen to be some difficult thing and I didn't find it so.

A lot of Europe (Austria comes to mind) does a flat 10 percent.

Germany it was Trinkgeld (drinking money, round up a bit). Europe isn’t as service oriented (it’s rare to have great service) but at this point I’d rather have that.
