Assignment:

As the minimum wage continues to rise, where do you see the future of tipping culture in travel, especially here in the United States?

Do you agree or disagree with tipping culture.

Lastly, if tipping culture were to be removed from not just restaurants, but in general within hospitality, how would you handle this statement, "These prices are so high(because your staff makes a livable wage), why should I buy a $25 entrée from you, when it's $18 across the street (they have server wages and tipping)."

This is reading material summary to work from:

In the US, it's customary to tip servers at least 15% at both bars and restaurants.

But that's not always the case in the rest of the world. In Japan, for example, it's considered rude to tip and doing so might cause some awkward confusion.

Why travelers do not tip anymore

"I am beginning to wonder if tipping is right," says Barbara Howell, a frequent air traveler and registered nurse from Carpinteria, California. She says travelers should tip when they receive outstanding service, not to subsidize the salaries of service employees.

I need some help with ideas on framing my response, after reading about this topic," should you tip or not?" Isummarized the articles to show what my information came from. I need help putting together a short explanation why I think that tipping is out of control, and i don't think that tipping should be done everywhere and to everyone. I thinkthat exceptional service needs to show that its appreciated. It's out of control, and I agree with that statement that patrons, travelers whoever should not be subsidizing the saleries of the employees. Im a waitress and i feel its too much that everywhere has tip jars out.
