Tip Jar: In Philly, You Gotta Tip

In this econpmy if you are eating out and enjoying life, you gotta tip 20%, no less. That's my opinion.

A quick poll in my office of the first 10 people who would answer my question "When you are out at a restaurant, what would you tip?" revealed 80% said they'd tip 20% of the total tab. 20% said 10-15%, depending on the service. Of the 80% tippers, 30% said that 20% is a minimum and they are known to tip more for home delivery or in restaurants they frequent.

I say "Way to go!" to the big tippers and "Boo!" to the tightwads. Though I admittedly sometimes "feel" poor service is not worth tipping at all.

What is your tipping policy?
