I worked with someone who would break out his calculator. I was ‘eh’ until I saw he was deducting tax and tipping on the actual cost of dinner. Smart.
Guess I’m generous to calculate on total bill.
Maybe I should reconsider 🤨
Most restaurant checks that I see show the pre-tax cost, then the tax, then the overall total. I don’t tip on taxes either.
I’ve also always tipped in cash, never on a credit card (except when the meal was being charged to a company card). If the servers can beat the taxman, more power to them.

That’s a great idea.
