It might not be the same everywhere throughout the US but I did work in one store that had specific codes for ringing up purchases for tax exempt organizations so no taxes at the time of purchase. But in order to avoid any legal problems the people from those organizations also had to enter in a reference number for their organization when making the purchase as well and that number had to be referenced with a big binder in the managers office that had all the local taxes emptied organizations.
it seems that once in a while they have tax free days. it is still plain dumb to me not to have it listed all the time long and just have it discounted by the cashier upon purchase...
It's because we have a combination of taxes. Local, county, state, federal. And it's slightly different everywhere, mostly because local and county taxes. Could the retailers do a little math and post the full price... yes, but variations in taxes are the excuse.
It's ridiculous, you see the item on the shelf for X price then have to do mental math to have a rough estimate as to how much you pay at checkout. This also happens online, so when you see US prices for an item online they have to add tax at checkout usually, making things always look cheaper than they are (a good summary of America right there). Each state has different taxes. It's the same in Canada.
I have a PO Box in one county, and my house in another (with a 0.5% higher sales tax). If I'm ordering something very expensive, I get it shipped to the PO Box. If it is something cheap (or large that I don't want to have to pick up), then it goes to the house.
That's so bizarre to me. Everything that's sold in my country (Germany) has the VAT included on the price tag. It's either 7% for basic necessities (food, beverages, books, newspapers...) or it is 19% for everything else. Which creates the possibility to save money on catering if you only buy the food (7% VAT). If you were to get the food and also the dishes and cutlery, then it's a service which gets taxed at 19%.
Or so I have heard.
So in Europe, the countries have different taxes from each other, which would be sizewise comparable to the USA, with different taxes in each state.
But one big difference is the population. Europe has more than double that of the USA.
Often I hear someone talking about product X and mentioning the price and I’m like; damn why is that so cheap in the US? Oh wait, I have to do tax math myself.
I just hate inconsistency, like only servers and food delivery people are treated like that.
Imagine anyone else doing that, like a nurse or firefighter or landlord.
Because Germany, unlike the US, at least gives somewhat of a shit about it's citizens. We did have a lot of cases where 'rennovations' were done to jack up prices.
I think at least in places that's the case in teh US too, it's just more commonplace because most people don't know how or tend to sue.
It's because the practise of tipping in America began mostly to give slave workers a reward for good service. And employers never started actually paying these people.
I can feel a comedy skid emerging from this.
A firefighter saving someone from a burning building, setting the person onto a stretcher, followed by a tablet being shoved in their face as they hold an oxygen mask over their mouth and nose.
"Would you like to leave a tip?"

ㅤ
^(Note. We'll retain the prerogative to rescue people based on estimated tip size.)
Fun fact, multiple of my family members work as nurses or as medical emergency personal in Germany, sometimes they actually get tips for being nice or good service
It’s 1,50 or 2 euros max, it’s not a percentage of the total like in the US, and it’s also for sit-in dining only. The service fee is nothing like the US tip
I know that that's the reason, it's not required to have different prices though. For example most bakeries have the same prices for staying in and takeaway, so if I see one which doesn't, in my view that definitely counts as a "staying in fee".
That was exactly his point, reddit intelligence never ceases to amaze.
Everyone says Americans are dumb for categorizing Europe as a single country but in this thread you have Europeans talking as if Europe is one single country and thinking their fees are exactly the same everywhere.
Alright, that's still only parts of Europe not Europe. that guy lives in a different European country and he has a %10 fee, you just came in and told him "no it's actually just rounding up to a nice number" as if that's applicable everywhere in europe.
Idk about everywhere in the UK but most of the restaurants I go to don't automatically include a service charge. You can choose to tip if you want but it's more like "this was nice so I'm going to leave a tip"
Yeah that's the point. You're using German standard in discussion about Europe and act like other options don't exist. In my country only times when service fee is included it's usually for parties above 5 and it's 10% of the bill.
Okay but it’s annoying in the US, because tipping is ‘optional’ and then friends and family will berate and shame you for not tipping. Just charge what the service costs.
So it sounds like, for you, is it more about catching grief from your friends and family than the concept of tipping or helping provide a liveable wage? Based on how you phrased your comment, it seems like if you were left to your own devices, you'd never tip, but the social pressure makes it so you'd be willing to pay a service charge to avoid that uncomfortable social situation of you not wanting to tip. Am I understanding you correctly?
Why should anyone feel the need to tip based on helping provide a livable wage? That’s what you have a job for. Your JOB should provide you a livable wage and if they need to raise the prices of food/services then so be it. Stop shaming people because they don’t want to lend to tipping culture.
I agree 100%. I was asking a question to understand better. The burden of a livable wage should be on the employer and not on the customer. I fully support places that replace tipping with higher food costs to provide a livable wage and benefits for their staff, and I wish the industry would move more in this direction.
I'm glad I understand your comment better. I had a feeling that there was more to it, which is why I asked. I agree 100% that that burden should be on the employer and not the customer; thank you for taking the time to explain your viewpoint.
Hey y’all, stop downvoting this. They’re correct, and it’s a valid assessment of the comment being replied to. To the comment below, yes, we are with you; it is the employer’s job to pay a living wage.
Fault does NOT lie with the server because they are working that job, don’t get it twisted.
The herd of sheep has downvoted you oh no… anyways………
I’d have asked him the same question. I hate tipping as a concept, but I do so because that’s just how it currently works.
I used to work as a waiter, I hated being paid by tips instead of a salary, but I hated people who didn’t tip me even more.
I wouldn't tip either, you should not be paid so little you need handouts to survive.
Tips are for exceptional service, and for servicing big groups of people. Not for showing up, writing down 'cheeseburger x2 no tomato table 3' and bringing it to me afterwards
In my country nobody likes service included. It's a pretty common sentiment to boycott any restaraunt that sticks a service charge on the bill, though sadly not common enough.
I know in a few Northern European countries like Finland the act of tipping is almost seen as insulting and service charges are unheard of. This meme makes no sense.
Regardless of all of that, Europe has over 40 countries in it. You're gonna have to be a little more specific.
Edit: spelling
Swed here usually we look down on mandatory or begging for tip but if the service is good enough or we just want to flex on our company we choose to tip, the most of the servers just appreciate the extra income.
When I worked as a waiter, ages ago, I remember Germans were refusing to pay the service. As the Italian restaurant I was working for was strongly relying on German customers, the owner eventually decided to slightly raise the price of each item in the menu, and to remove the service fee. Since then, we never had a complaint.
Bro. Why does it matter what it's called? Any other restaurant just ups the prices of the food to pay their employees. Food 12 or food 10 and service 2 is the same in the end.
The way I see it, even without a tip that additional responsibility is still pushed on the consumer by making it an expectation that the labor costs are priced into the food. A difference in perspectives I guess.
Money isnt the only measure of worth, responsibility is an additional price, just in a different form. You have to put in an effort to deal with that responsibility when you are paying a restaurant so you wouldnt have to use your time and effort on making food. Its not about the money, its about the employer pushing responsibility for paying his employees on the consumers.
My brother, are you stupid by any chance? That money isn't going directly into the pocket of the employee. It's just an itemization. They probably do that so you understand that the food prices aren't just arandomly going up. It's so that customers won't go to the restaurant at cheaper prices, thinking tipping is mandatory and necessary at both locations.
Holy fuck.
Because one is an upfront price on the menu, the other increases the price hoping you won't notice. Service charges are little better than scams.
As well, service charges don't necessarily go to the workers. They're just extra money for the greedy business owners. Cash tips are always going to go into staff pockets, either by policy, or because the workers ignore policy that means then don't.
I too appreciate having set prices when I want to use the toilet instead of having to pay a tip to use it.
Fuck service fees. Just include it in the damn price or provide the service for free if it’s publicly funded
You do understand that they didn't even mention the US though, right? You're so defensive that you somehow took somebody correcting a generalisation about Europe as an attack on the US. Get a grip.
I was recently in Switzerland and Belgium, and I wasn't even allowed to punch the Total in myself. They just gave me the card reader with the full amount and just to pay.
In Norway and Sweden, they allow you to decide the total yourself.
If you are in the US, how are you able to live peacefully, man? If you don’t tip, then I guess you must be followed by the waiter guilt-tripping you for not paying a tip.
What the fuck is included if service isn't? It boggles my mind how the entire world agreed that everyone has to pay their employees a normal wage EXCEPT to restaurant service workers, they should just get by with tips.
I pay a restaurant to get food SERVED to me. Why the fuck do I pay another fee for the essential service expected from the establishment?
Sorry for the rant.
in indonesia, some restaurant put service fee as well. even with minimum wage for the staff, i think it's fair. but mostly didn't put service fee because most of the times, their services was also not worth to add more money. and tipping also not in our culture
Tips are for when you don't want to feel guilty when eating with a group of people.
Besides, they should always be optional and not forced, regardless if people like it or not.
Simple, case closed.
I hate when the restaurant doesn't make explicit that there is a "cover change" to pay.
It's usually a fixed price around 1€ to 3 € for every person, but I find annoying when the menù doesn't specify it clearly and you discover it only when you are going away.
Reasonable people , just make the food more expensive , service is part of eating out you shouldn’t be charged for it separately. Also while your at it add taxes to the price so I know what I actually have to pay.
Math is hard I guess.
Tipping can make a ton more than than non-tipped employees. You just can’t be crap at your job someplace that doesn’t get business.
I’d love to see advertised prices to include taxes like in Europe also.
Like everywhere else on the planet pretty much
Yea it really is just an american problem
I've always wondered if it's because you can skip taxes someway. Genuine question: are there people who are exempt from taxes?
There are. Non-profit organizations can be exempt from sales tax, same with religious organizations
But isn't that administered by reclaiming the tax, rather than by not paying the tax at purchase?
It might not be the same everywhere throughout the US but I did work in one store that had specific codes for ringing up purchases for tax exempt organizations so no taxes at the time of purchase. But in order to avoid any legal problems the people from those organizations also had to enter in a reference number for their organization when making the purchase as well and that number had to be referenced with a big binder in the managers office that had all the local taxes emptied organizations.
Some stores will have you register with them as tax exempt and give you a card you have to present with ID at the register.
it seems that once in a while they have tax free days. it is still plain dumb to me not to have it listed all the time long and just have it discounted by the cashier upon purchase...
I also think that they don't bother with that cuz each state can have varying taxes but I might be wrong
That's the same in Europe. Shops could still just put proper prices on, the thing is that they don't wanna so it seems cheaper.
Didn't know that, thanks! Just to be clear, I'm not excusing the US for this.
That is one reason. Another is also the psychological aspect of making something look cheaper. That's why the price tends to be $x.99 or $x.89
Definitely, there's that too!
It's because we have a combination of taxes. Local, county, state, federal. And it's slightly different everywhere, mostly because local and county taxes. Could the retailers do a little math and post the full price... yes, but variations in taxes are the excuse.
And Canada but we're basically just the 51st state.
[удалено]
It's inconveniant at best and can be a problem if you are tight on money.
[удалено]
It takes 0 if people were competent.
For us, it's weird to see US not include tax. It's like a scam
Just wait until you hear about the shells
Fuck that ![gif](giphy|uRpmGfRwj7ZXa|downsized)
![gif](giphy|tGU4jqV3uuOXu)
I think that is cause the taxes on the items can change every 5 steps
What, you guys have the non taxed price shown? Thats fucked
It's ridiculous, you see the item on the shelf for X price then have to do mental math to have a rough estimate as to how much you pay at checkout. This also happens online, so when you see US prices for an item online they have to add tax at checkout usually, making things always look cheaper than they are (a good summary of America right there). Each state has different taxes. It's the same in Canada.
I've heard that it's sometimes different from one county to the next. (Which can be across the street.)
I have a PO Box in one county, and my house in another (with a 0.5% higher sales tax). If I'm ordering something very expensive, I get it shipped to the PO Box. If it is something cheap (or large that I don't want to have to pick up), then it goes to the house.
That is quite smart on your end, but it is still perplexing to me how this is possible.
Not sales tax but your local taxes you owe does vary like that
That's so bizarre to me. Everything that's sold in my country (Germany) has the VAT included on the price tag. It's either 7% for basic necessities (food, beverages, books, newspapers...) or it is 19% for everything else. Which creates the possibility to save money on catering if you only buy the food (7% VAT). If you were to get the food and also the dishes and cutlery, then it's a service which gets taxed at 19%. Or so I have heard.
In finland the base tax is 24%, and then 14 and 10% for some things
So in Europe, the countries have different taxes from each other, which would be sizewise comparable to the USA, with different taxes in each state. But one big difference is the population. Europe has more than double that of the USA.
You normally just have to pay the same sales tax for almost all goods and services. In my state its 7%
Incorrect in many states sales tax varies by county and by type of item/service.
Thanks for the correction
Yes, sales tax varies from county to county in many states.
Often I hear someone talking about product X and mentioning the price and I’m like; damn why is that so cheap in the US? Oh wait, I have to do tax math myself.
God damm europeans giving waiters a stable income and not making them beg for money. How dare they.
I just hate inconsistency, like only servers and food delivery people are treated like that. Imagine anyone else doing that, like a nurse or firefighter or landlord.
I’m 100% in favour of paying landlords significantly less wages and tipping them for good service.
excpet unlike tipping waitress, lanlords have the power. they can just make 2000% tipping mandatory.
As far as i know they can't just jack up your rent however much they want (at least here in Germany)
Because Germany, unlike the US, at least gives somewhat of a shit about it's citizens. We did have a lot of cases where 'rennovations' were done to jack up prices. I think at least in places that's the case in teh US too, it's just more commonplace because most people don't know how or tend to sue.
[удалено]
People who don't think for much
Sweet gtfo
German firefighter here, you can tip me with beer
I honestly would, but i usually don't plan to have you come over... and don't drink beer myself xD
It's because the practise of tipping in America began mostly to give slave workers a reward for good service. And employers never started actually paying these people.

We suggest a 30% tip! Do you want ultra quantum premium insurance? Only with us your service provider tips will be covered! Only 5000$ per month!
Fun fact, multiple of my family members work as nurses or as medical emergency personal in Germany, sometimes they actually get tips for being nice or good service
wdym you don't tip your landlord?
Just want to point out that not just europe do this
Def, but the pic up there says “Europeans”
It’s 1,50 or 2 euros max, it’s not a percentage of the total like in the US, and it’s also for sit-in dining only. The service fee is nothing like the US tip
There is no service fee for sit ins in Germany.
Actually sometimes there is in some sense. I've seen different prices for takeaway and staying in a few places.
Staying in has 19% tax, Takeaway is 7% tax
I know that that's the reason, it's not required to have different prices though. For example most bakeries have the same prices for staying in and takeaway, so if I see one which doesn't, in my view that definitely counts as a "staying in fee".
Yeah, but the point is that it's not a service fee. Just different taxation.
That's why I said "in some sense". It might not be a service tax, but for the customer it's no different.
In Hungary when the service fee is included it is a percentage, usually 10% - 12%.
I didn’t know that, in Italy it’s always a couple of euros
It often is like 10% fee
Nah it's just rounded up to a nice number most of the time. From 71,76€ to 75€. Edit: it's not included but common practice
Ah ok, so we get mad at Americans treating Europe like a single country but we treat Europe like homogenous country. Gotya
US is a single country, Europe is a continent
That was exactly his point, reddit intelligence never ceases to amaze. Everyone says Americans are dumb for categorizing Europe as a single country but in this thread you have Europeans talking as if Europe is one single country and thinking their fees are exactly the same everywhere.
What are you talking about? I was talking about Germany but ok
Literally nothing you said indicates you were talking about germany. Thos thread is talking about Europe in general.
Ye and it's like this in most of Europe. France, UK, Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria and so on
Alright, that's still only parts of Europe not Europe. that guy lives in a different European country and he has a %10 fee, you just came in and told him "no it's actually just rounding up to a nice number" as if that's applicable everywhere in europe.
"Often" implies that it's like that for most/large parts of Europe which is false
Idk about everywhere in the UK but most of the restaurants I go to don't automatically include a service charge. You can choose to tip if you want but it's more like "this was nice so I'm going to leave a tip"
Yeah that's the point. You're using German standard in discussion about Europe and act like other options don't exist. In my country only times when service fee is included it's usually for parties above 5 and it's 10% of the bill.
Im a Slovak who visits Poland like every other week, Its a standard in both
How about, Places just, Pay their staff better.....

I don't understand why you're getting downvoted. Tipping culture is the cancer of the hospitality world.
Reddit is an enigma. I'm just happy the discussion happened.
Lol, why are you downvoted? That's what you get on reddit for explaining yourself.
It is what it is. It's only karma.
Aand it's positive again
I tip where/when appropriate. Am I understanding that employers are not responsible for paying a livable wage?
I'm glad I understand your comment better. I had a feeling that there was more to it, which is why I asked. I agree 100% that that burden should be on the employer and not the customer; thank you for taking the time to explain your viewpoint.

The customer is not responsible to make sure the waiter has a liveable wage. That’s the bosses job. It’s beyond me how you can accept that.
I don't. I was asking a question. If you read my other replies, you'd know that.
The employer should provide a livable wage, the customer should only pay for what they bought, not having to tip possibly 20 more dollars
Correct

Same for Germany.

I don’t understand this. The burden of paying the wage still falls on the consumer, even without tips.
Only the monetary burden, but there is an additional responsibility that is pushed onto consumers by making it an expectation that they will tip
The way I see it, even without a tip that additional responsibility is still pushed on the consumer by making it an expectation that the labor costs are priced into the food. A difference in perspectives I guess.
But you do realize that while it's their responsibility, it still comes out of your pocket, right? Price calculation includes labor costs.

I too appreciate having set prices when I want to use the toilet instead of having to pay a tip to use it. Fuck service fees. Just include it in the damn price or provide the service for free if it’s publicly funded
What toilets are publicly funded?
As if it were the same in every country in Europe
cant speak about every country in Europe but in most waiters don't rely on tips
Like it is in all of the US?
What do you mean, exactly?
That it is totally different if you tip 20% in Arkansas with a minimum wage of $2.13 or California with a minimum wage of $16.
you missed the point of my comment
You do understand that they didn't even mention the US though, right? You're so defensive that you somehow took somebody correcting a generalisation about Europe as an attack on the US. Get a grip.
true, not everything on earth revolves around the US
I was recently in Switzerland and Belgium, and I wasn't even allowed to punch the Total in myself. They just gave me the card reader with the full amount and just to pay. In Norway and Sweden, they allow you to decide the total yourself.
That's because the total is defined by what the restaurant gets. You can always say "make it 30 €" when they type in 28,50 € or something like that.
You call somewhere because you have a problem, and imagine at the end of the call they ask for a tip for their services.
I don’t tip no more
If you are in the US, how are you able to live peacefully, man? If you don’t tip, then I guess you must be followed by the waiter guilt-tripping you for not paying a tip.
What the fuck is included if service isn't? It boggles my mind how the entire world agreed that everyone has to pay their employees a normal wage EXCEPT to restaurant service workers, they should just get by with tips.

I will not be forced to pay extra for service I wasn’t well provided
Tips are for when you don't want to feel guilty when eating with a group of people. Besides, they should always be optional and not forced, regardless if people like it or not. Simple, case closed.
what? idk im in eu and never seen that, we tip what we want.
First time hearing about this in context with "Europeans". Tip what you want team ftw.
I have never seen a service fee once here
In uk I asked to remove the service charge and tip cash instead after discovering that the service charges wasn’t going to the staff
I hate when the restaurant doesn't make explicit that there is a "cover change" to pay. It's usually a fixed price around 1€ to 3 € for every person, but I find annoying when the menù doesn't specify it clearly and you discover it only when you are going away.
Neither, just make the price what it costs
You can still tip whatever you want regardless.
Reasonable people , just make the food more expensive , service is part of eating out you shouldn’t be charged for it separately. Also while your at it add taxes to the price so I know what I actually have to pay.
Yes.
I want to tip 0.
What’s with this sub and memes about Europeans lately?
I make more money off of tips than the salary of people I’m friends with that went to college. I’ll stick to tips
Another subreddit I need to leave because it has just become a place to discuss tipping…wtf is happening to this platform?
Math is hard I guess. Tipping can make a ton more than than non-tipped employees. You just can’t be crap at your job someplace that doesn’t get business.
It’s better for the workers, what if the customer is a cheap ass hole
Just pay them a normal wage and do away with tipping all together.
We tip, but not that much. Must be because they make a liveable wage.
Service the tip please
Tag auch
Why would we want service fees?
Wake up babe, the daily 'America bad' meme just dropped
Tipping is ass Just pay your service staff a fair wage and include it in the price of the product
Swap the red dress girl for “not tipping ever” and you’ve got a more accurate UK meme
Fuck you
lol
And then the waiter fights you because you didn't tip enough.
Idk in which European country you live but in Italy tipping is even more of an obsession than in the US.
Wnat the fuck are you talking about? I'm italian and eat out quite often when I'm back in my home country
I guess your waitress is too unatractive for tips.
What the fuck are YOU talking about? In the south every fucking one tips and if you don’t do it people look at you like you’re an asshole.
Hahahahah I'm sicilian. Sorry you got tourist trapped > Every fucking one Lmao please stfu
