Last time I ate out, a 15% tip wasn’t even offered, it was 20%, 25%, or 30%. So I did the easiest thing, took the 20% number and divided it in half. Close enough, I guess.

If you divide the 30 percent figure by 2, it’s just as easy and isn’t just “close enough” — it’s exactly 15 percent.

...we ate out last night and got already made salads. No waiter. The cashier had neck tattoos, nose ring etc. No “thanks for coming in” or “my pleasure”. Nothing. The bill gave me the option of 20-30% tip or nothing. I hit nothing and got a heavy breath response from the dirtball. I smiled at him.
