Do you tip at subway/quiznos? - GoFuckYourself.com

STAROTICA · 03-24-2009, 05:43 PM

I always see the tip cup there.....but these people actually make min wage....so why dont they do that at Burget King/McDonalds as well?

Ozarkz · 03-24-2009, 05:44 PM

no and as far as i'm concerned the shit is over priced.

I tip at restaurants when I sit down to a meal and delivery drivers.

Deej · 03-24-2009, 05:45 PM

No but i just ate a fantastic quiznos beef sammich

CaptainHowdy · 03-24-2009, 06:28 PM

Why ?

NaughtyRob · 03-24-2009, 06:31 PM

I tip everywhere but not as much at Starbucks / Coffee places. Its a lot more work to make a sandwich then pour some coffee.

escorpio · 03-24-2009, 06:33 PM

Fuck tip jars. I tip waiters/waitresses and delivery people, not some minimum wage asshole with a begging cup.

spacedog · 03-24-2009, 06:34 PM

fuck that

st0ned · 03-24-2009, 07:04 PM

I tip most everywhere I go. Since I go to Subway so often and know the people by name I generally tip them also.

tipping is dumb for the most part as it is often expected. I try and only tip when something merrits it. Quick delivery, GOOD service. I hate tip culture

dav3 · 03-24-2009, 07:12 PM

No. In fact I'm kind of surprised that Subway allows them to put a tip cup out.

Same here

Barefootsies · 03-24-2009, 07:53 PM

Nope.

Yngwie · 03-24-2009, 09:02 PM

Nope. They don't do anything that deserves being tipped.

abadfish · 03-24-2009, 09:34 PM

I don't tip for coffee but it seems everyone else does. When I am dropping almost $5 for a cup of coffee I do not feel like giving them another $1.

I've had people give me shit about it so I ask them if they tip at McDonalds. Of course they always answer no so I ask why they don't because the McD's workers probably don't earn as much, get less respect and go home smelling like french fries yet work as hard or harder.

I agree that tipping is completely out of hand in the US.

Iron Fist · 03-24-2009, 10:00 PM

I don't recall them begin forced to work there... so why bother tipping? I'd rather tip the hot chick in the miniskirt who keeps my drinks full and winks at me making me think I might actually have a chance of fucking her brains out during her lunch break.

LOL.

D Ghost · 03-24-2009, 10:01 PM

Sometimes but not usually

After Shock Media · 03-24-2009, 10:15 PM

It would be a trick anyways. Part of the original Subway's marketing plan- even before in store baked bread was to have a clear counter where the customers could watch/participate in the assembly and see that the food looked fresh.

Now if you tip for that in essence you are just paying them back to market to you in the first place.

I am sure you get excellent service; wait staff make $2.12 an hour here in TX. So, without tips they go broke.

The Quiznos/Subway crews get minimum wage. Tips are not to be expected for them.

Mr Pheer · 03-25-2009, 04:27 AM

I just grab the tip jar on my way out, they dont even notice.

sexandcash · 03-25-2009, 04:30 AM

I generally tip when I receive service at a sit down place. Where I order and a waitress brings me the food, asks if I want ketchup and napkins and all this sort of jazz.

It would be like tipping at McDonalds? Why?

Hellz no. My tip for them is "work hard so you don't get stuck in a shit job like this for the rest of your life."

Doctor Dre · 03-25-2009, 04:50 AM

Here they get paid less hourly then the usual min wage employes do, and they pay taxes on the tip. So yeah I tip them well. They work harder then the waitress pouring water in my glass at the buffet.

Sarah_Jayne · 03-25-2009, 05:04 AM

nope...tip wait staff and delivery guys but not counter staff

UFGators2007 · 03-25-2009, 05:31 AM

Its really bullshit. They didnt deliver it. They made it...and got paid to do it. Argh! So sick of the fucking tipping for doing your job shit!

budz · 03-25-2009, 07:15 AM

cherrylula · 03-25-2009, 07:58 AM

I tip almost everywhere, except at drive thru's. Especially where I am a regular, it always comes back to ya...

LiveDose · 03-25-2009, 08:07 AM

I never eat there but I rarely tip counter staff unless they are extremely engaging (humorous or 'seemingly' sincere), very efficient and attentive to what they are making or if it's a hot chick. Otherwise, no.

Tom_PM · 03-25-2009, 08:14 AM

I'm able to make my own sandwiches. So.... take that.

Seriously, no. If it was a charity jar then maybe, but if it was a jar marked "TIPS" or something, then no.

candyflip · 03-25-2009, 08:17 AM

I eat at a lot of buffets and it seems now those people want a tip for picking up after you.

You seat yourself. You get your own food and drinks. And there's still someone with a hand out.

Vicious_B · 03-25-2009, 08:20 AM

Very rarely. The only exception I make is a local deli where I sometimes pick up lunch. They are always very nice and have hooked me up on price or extras sometimes.

Elli · 03-25-2009, 08:36 AM

I only tip if I get to sit down and somebody takes my order, brings me my food and comes back to ask if I need anything else. Otherwise they are just doing their job, which they're already paid for. A tip is supposed to be a bonus for good work.

ScareCrowe · 03-25-2009, 09:22 AM

Sorry, my post is wordy and not 100% on topic, but after reading a couple of posts in this thread, I got very passionate about it! ;)

I have a lot of experience in the food industry, having held literally every possible position from dishwasher to GM, in just about every kind of establishment from mall hot dog stand to 4 star full service restaurant.

My 2 cents:
Don't feel obligated to tip at subway or Quiznos or Starbucks or any other food place that is not full-service. Tipping is nice, but it's not expected at those type of establishments.

For full-service places, always tip servers and bartenders, even if they give you shitty service.

Why?

1) The tip you leave for the server is usually NOT just for the server. They have to do tip-share with the host, busboys, bartenders, and any other helper staff, like water or bread-boys. Yea, maybe your server sucked, but by not tipping you are punishing everyone else for your crappy server. Instead of one pissed off employee, you now have half the staff hating you.

2) All those peeps above, they are required to claim a set percentage on their gross sales.
So if you spend $100.00 and stiff them, they still have to pay taxes on what you SHOULD have tipped them. This percentage averages from 8-10%. Of course you are going to get shitty service. Why should they give you even the bare minimum when they have to actually pay for your cheap ass to eat there!

Front-of-house staff have excellent memories. If you stiff them, I promise you they will remember you. Even if it's a year and a half since you were last there. Next time you come in, you will get even shittier service. They won't even want to take your table.

Don't believe me? Go ahead, watch them while you are waiting in line. You will see servers going to the host stand and chatting with the hosts. What are they doing? They are looking at the waiting line and sizing you up. Then they are telling the host to seat you in someone else's section cuz they know you don't tip, so they don't want to waste their time on you.

Now hold on, cuz it doesn't stop there. If that server has to take your table, they will contain their anger till they get to the back-of-house. They are gonna go back there and start ranting and bitching about having to take your cheap-ass table. Now the cook staff is gonna get it on it. What you are going to wind up with is the smallest steak they had on hand, the steak they accidently dropped on the floor 4 hours ago and set aside or the least desirable looking portion of whatever you just ordered. And no, they are not going to give a shit if it's over or undercooked.

Karma is a bitch, and she lives in the food industry. You fuck with her, and she will fuck right back.

As far as tipping goes, the thought process of the server waiting on you is not what you think.
Stiffing a server in their eyes doesn't say 'You suck as a server', it says "I'm a cheap fuck and I'm entitled". If you want to tell a server they suck by way of tip, you leave them a flat dollar. Nothing more, nothing less.

If you get the service you expected, then leave them a proper tip. A 'proper' tip is the full tax amount of your guest check times 2.

If you want to get superior service, ie seated before people ahead of you in line, getting your food before those who ordered first, getting better portions of food, having your drinks refilled before your glass is half-empty.... then tip above the expected amount. The better you tip, the better your experience will be every time.

Like it or not, that's just the way it is.
