When do you tip?

Do you tip based on the bill? Pre-tax or post-tax?

Do you increase or decrease your tip based on service?

What is the minimum or average tip you typically give?

This week's episode is inspired by a listener / previous guest Sue Reynolds (you can hear her episode, 248, here: https://yesnerlawpodcast.libsyn.com/when-you-cant-pay-your-mortgage-episode-248). Sue asked when and whether we tip, which is a topic we've never before discussed on the show!

How do you avoid tip shaming? Do you tip at a fast food restaurant? Do you tip the owner when the owner provides the service to you? What is standard these days and is it based on industry - for example food service versus haircuts? When you tip, but you've received a discount, do you tip on the pre-discount or post-discount amount? Or do you tip a flat fee regardless of the cost? Should servers at more expensive restaurants make more in tips simply because their food is more expensive? Should wait staff make more in tips simply because they served a table that also orders alcohol versus a table that does not?

George and Shawn discuss all of these issues, and give real life examples of when they have (or have not) tipped.
