Default Re: PDT 2/2 : Why has tipping increased?

I tip 20%

1- because there's something that makes me feel good about knowing I'm tipping slightly more than normal. I try to be a very appreciative customer. It's not just tipping, but also lots of thank yous and whatever else. This is mostly because of my brief experience working in the service industry.

2- it's mathematically easier to figure out a 20% tip.

I'm not sure if you can generalize either of these to everybody else though.
