It's fucking awful. A load of self-indulgent tosh.Jools’ Holland Hootananny
The tip entitlement is creeping its way over the Atlantic to us. It’s still far worse in the USA. But every time I’ve been over there I’ve found myself reminding some staff that it’s a courtesy, not their entitlement. Depends how much of a c**t I think they are.
To be fair they don’t get paid a minimum wage over there because tips is supposed to make up a significant part of their pay.I just do $1 a drink but tend to sit at the bar over there. Being prompted to tip by a card machine when going up to a bar to get served in the UK is a joke.

It’s fucked up, very problematic, and it needs to change, but the way to do that isn’t to not tip the service staff on an individual level who are just getting. Needs legislative change.
Actually has its roots from slavery too!
In Australia the request the tips has started to sneak its way over here but everybody unanimously just puts in 0% tip whenever asked. Like fuck off you get a very good wage here
WowGet a different job then?
The worst are those people who barge into you when you’re in the aisle seat. I literally had to push someone by their rucksack the other day because they were about to whack me in the face with it.Airports. What the fuck happens to humans psychologically that causes them to act in such weird irrational and infuriating ways when they get to an airport and/or on an aeroplane? I would love to see some kind of psychological study.
1.5 hour flight and a (big fat) woman was literally leaning on me in the aisle at the end as I took the 7 seconds to take my bag down from the overhead locker. Like could not physically handle the possibility of a 7 second delay to her journey.
Then gets off the plan on the tarmac and is the slowest person there and everyone just walks past her anyway….
I always pay and tip in cash over there.To be fair they don’t get paid a minimum wage over there because tips is supposed to make up a significant part of their pay.

He's changed since he started earning money!

Turned him all Tory it has!By getting a new job?
It's the just get another job that BSB rightfully pulled out. Like it's that easy.TIL the Tory position is a living wage for workers and the Labour position is workers living off the kindness of the rich!
Tipping is the most right wing of beliefs out there. You want to guilt people who might have less money than the server into paying wages so the business makes more money rather than encourage unionisation and minimum wage laws??

‘Just get another job’ What if that’s all there is in that area?No you’re right much better to enshrine poverty wages as some kind of point of national pride. Silly me.
Next time teachers strike I guess it’s my fault for not slipping them a fiver a parents evening.
What a ridiculous thing to sayGet a different job then? It’s not a customers job to be guilted into subsidising wages. And in a lot of states any shortfall below minimum wage is topped up.
It’s bonkers. Self awareness and spacial awareness just goes out the window completely like you say. I’m not sure if people just get mad anxiety or something and don’t know how to control themselvesThe worst are those people who barge into you when you’re in the aisle seat. I literally had to push someone by their rucksack the other day because they were about to whack me in the face with it.
I’ve had this waiting at certain bus stops. No queuing, just shove people out of the way so you get on first. Then if you find yourself at the front by arriving earlier, the same shovers will tell you to be considerate to those getting off as if you were going to shove them too.The worst are those people who barge into you when you’re in the aisle seat. I literally had to push someone by their rucksack the other day because they were about to whack me in the face with it.
And while they are figuring out if it’s their turn to board, they think well I’ll go stand right near the entrance to the boarding line so that other people who’s turn it is to actually board, have to awkwardly squeeze past meThere’s this weird impatience, seriousness, pretentiousness, self importance, unnecessary anxiety from people around airports. Flight/ gate not even open for another 2 hours but will race around, barge through people as if they’re about to miss it. Obviously they load the plane in groups, call out for group 1 and some twat rushes to the desk thinking they’ve priority over everyone despite being in group 5/6. Taking more room than they need in overhead luggage compartments. Touchdown, plane still not docked, doors not open, everyone stand up and queue. Why?
I was just about to say the same, ironicallyThe use of the word ironically where coincidentally should be used instead.
You fucker.I was just about to say the same, ironically
Don’t forget those parents who think it’s a good idea to let their kids struggle to offload a 30kg suitcase from the carousel, while they stand around on the ‘phone!And while they are figuring out if it’s their turn to board, they think well I’ll go stand right near the entrance to the boarding line so that other people who’s turn it is to actually board, have to awkwardly squeeze past me
Baggage claim…if I’m standing about 3 or 4 feet away from the carousel (sometimes there’s literally a line drawn) people will stroll right past me and stand between me and the carousel
Pricks the lot of them
Add to this British people who form a queue in a foreign airport more than an hour before takeoff and deciding it’s the queue to board even though it’s in the completely wrong place and then becoming ultra passive aggressive when they’re no longer at the front.And while they are figuring out if it’s their turn to board, they think well I’ll go stand right near the entrance to the boarding line so that other people who’s turn it is to actually board, have to awkwardly squeeze past me

Or who let their kids go anywhere near the carousel despite the signs telling them not to!Don’t forget those parents who think it’s a good idea to let their kids struggle to offload a 30kg suitcase from the carousel, while they stand around on the ‘phone!
Every aspect of airports grinds my gears.
for me its the Europeans who clap when the plane lands - FFS what are they expecting -Add to this British people who form a queue in a foreign airport more than an hour before takeoff and deciding it’s the queue to board even though it’s in the completely wrong place and then becoming ultra passive aggressive when they’re no longer at the front.
