The rules are simple:

- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.

The craziest thing to me are the places that have steadily raised the percentages for the default buttons. It's a percentage, it already accounts for inflation automatically π
A bunch of grocery stores have also eliminated the βbaggerβ job, leaving you to do it yourself, but then also ask for a tip! Store cut costs by paying their employees shit, heaping more work on them, and then asking you to give their poor ass employees some money. Give them the money you saved on eliminating the bag people!
Yes! A 15% tip in 1980 should still be a 15% tip today. Not this 20-25% madness that they try to keep pushing.
I was told inflation is like 3% per year over the long term. You're a monster to not want them to have that!
/s
In the 90s at least, 15% was for EXCEPTIONAL service...
Now its 15% if they dont spit in your food....
Iβve noticed more and more retail places prompting me to tip. The fuck
I just hit no tip and say thanks! And walk out. It's not difficult.
What are they going to do? Make a scene? I pray they would.
I'm sorry, you tell me what fucking service I'm tipping you for? Do you tip your plumber? Do you tip the attendant at a roller coaster at a theme park? Do you tip front desk attendant at a hotel? No...pray tell, why do you think you need a tip for pouring me two-hour old hot bean water? Did you grind it by hand at my request? Did you personally see to it that I received only the very best beans at ye Starbucks roasteries? No? Then fuck off.
It's extortion. You get the special cup they've been saving all day that the guy spat in if you don't tip.
Obligatory: Sir, this is a Wendy's....
You tip at Wendy's?
It's not like they're ranting off topic. Also the joke is old.
It's me lol. And yes it is. I agree
Yeah but the wages of these employees haven't. Don't go making the employer raise their hourly rate!
So inconsiderate of you.
Preach!
