Friends Who Serve or Bartend. Do you tip more than usual or not at all?
I just want to have a friendly discussion around tipping someone that is your friend. For example, if you go have lunch and your friend is serving, do you tip them more, the same, or not at all? Now there can be a number of scenarios like you didn't know they were working and ended up getting them or similar to me, I specifically went go to the restaurant to see them because I knew they were working (otherwise I would have went to Chipotle). Me personally, I tip my friend more. Granted the entire meal (plus tip) was pretty much what I would have spent at Chipotle with no tip. I do tip my friend more than I would if I were to have as server that I don't know (not friends with)/other places I eat at.
I know this is reddit, but please keep it kind, positive, non-judgemental; I'm genuinely curious and would like a decent "conversation".
