@Tucson_Police The city of Tucson is purposely starting construction projects simultaneously all over town and coinciding it with the reintroduction of traffic cameras to extort the public for funds.
My husband and I went out for dinner last night, and something happened that honestly left me confused.
Our bill came to $70, and we left $20 on the table as a tip. In my mind, that felt reasonable. It was not meant to be disrespectful, and we were not trying to make any kind of statement. We simply paid the bill and left what we thought was a fair tip.
But the waiter refused to take it and told us that if we were not willing to tip at least $35, then we should not be dining out.
I was surprised, because $20 on a $70 bill is still a real amount of money. Maybe it is not what some people expect now, but it also does not feel like nothing.
I understand that servers work hard. I know tips matter, and I respect the people who do that job. But I also think moments like this show how tense tipping culture has become.
What used to feel like a thank-you now sometimes feels like a demand. Customers feel pressured, servers feel underpaid, and everyone ends up frustrated with each other instead of questioning the system that created the problem.
So I am genuinely asking: was $20 on a $70 bill really that bad, or have tipping expectations gotten out of hand..., 🤔🤔🤔?
@MahikRani50377 $20 tip on a $70 bill is more than fair. Everyone expects tips nowadays even fast food places. Tipping expectations have gotten way out of hand!
Tucson's Miracle Mile mosaic is back! Local artist Paloma Jacqueline hand made 2,000+ ceramic tiles to restore this beloved 30ft mural on the I-10 overpass, originally created by Gary Mackender in 1995. 🎨 Next time you're heading north on I-10, look up!
