I still give the expected service to those tables, but I don't waste my time trying to be their buddy or going the extra mile for them to have a great experience. 

all you have to do to get american servants to stop bothering you while you eat is not tip?

I get my hair cut by the same person each time, so we moved past small talk a looooong time ago. It's comforting.

Before I settled in on going to her every time I usually tipped based on the quality of conversation I had during the haircut. You don't want to know how my week is going? Fine, but now I give zero shits about you...here's a dollar.

Just found out that today is her last day  :cry:

I think it is very appropriate to tip bartenders/wait staff $1 for song requests, especially if the bar doesn't have a jukebox.

Better idea. Don't bother the bartender with your silly song requests. You can listen to Journey when you go home.

If Mae's ever played Rap God I'd tip $2.

Tipped less than a dollar to round up a bill on takeout. As soon as I did it I regretted it, they're probably all  :confused:. Bill was less than 11, I think my only course of action is to not eat there for over a month.
You need to walk back in there today and say "PSYCH!" and do one of these:

It'd be extra hilarious because it'd probably be different employees and they'd be sssooooooo confused.

Our bachelor party and some other guy combined for $400 of tips to the band in Tootsies this weekend. Apparently Freebird is a $100 song everywhere in Nashville and these guys so happened to kill it each time. The place was going nuts

Am I supposed to tip when I go through the drive thru at Pita Pit? There is a tip line on the receipt - does that mean you are supposed to tip?

What service would you be tipping for at a drive-through?  You literally were made to drive a several thousand pound deathtrap up to a specially made window so you could awkwardly exchange goods through an open car window with exhaust fumes bellowing about.  No one is going the extra mile for you.  By comparison, at a drive-in, someone went out of their way to come up to your car, ask you what you want, go back inside, have it made, and bring it straight out to you.  How thoughtful and pleasant, tip city!

Well it's not that much different from when I go inside at Pita Pit. They are still standing in the same place just making my pita. Yet there is a tip line on the receipt so they must think that tipping is at least warranted if not the norm. Maybe the tip is for making the pita?

its because you are expected to tip delivery drivers and they arent going to have different receipt papers for carryout and delivery.

This Pita Pit does not deliver. I didn't even know Pita Pit did deliver until I just went to their website and saw that the Manhattan one does deliver.
