    It common sense, tip off TOTAL bill NOT discounted prices, you got the same service and food so… tip accordingly of TRUE amount. It’s not “misleading” it’s a true fact, tip based of total.

    Like I said before, you get $100 worth of drinks with a discount of half off so $50, you do NOT tip off $50. You got $100 worth of drinks and services so tip off that! Don’t like it, don’t go out. Don’t agree, then create a bill and call your govt reps, do not punish fellow humans because you “don’t agree”. We are all just trying to live. If anything, make your own food at home and there you go, NO TIP NEEDED… but no, you came out to get waited on therefore, provide tips accordingly, we are not just at the restaurant for pleasure…

      As I said, it’s not evident at all if those are full or discounted prices, so in the latter case it’s a misleading number.

      Anyway, I don’t live in a place with broken wages and tipping system, so I don’t have to deal with problems like this. Where I am wait staff gets adequate wages and tips are only a bonus on top of that.

        Don’t live here… never worked in USA food system… no opinion… I would gladly trade a month to month situation like wife swap… it’s more like American swap… then you will fucking know the shit we deal with! Including getting taxed like 30-40% while billionaires pay little to nothing. You up for it, we can trade lives for a month!
