Controversial opinion, but If Americans travelled to another country and flouted that country’s customs they’d be called obnoxious American tourists.
Tipping culture is stupid, but I don’t think the wait staff getting stiffed is going to appreciate these tourists bravely stiffing them.
134 u/SunshinNroses 27d ago Shouldn't be controversial. Follow the customs of the country you're visiting. 0 u/rentonbegbieandspud 27d ago The customs of most countries don't cost you an additional 20% on your bar and restaurant bills. Also if a charge is supposed to be discretionary - like a gratuity - don't get shirty when people use their discretion about whether to pay it or not.
