How much? At all?

 

No. Never. At $150-$175 per hour, it doesn't make sense to me.

 

I do at 20%.

 

Yup. 15-20%. Whatever comes out easier for me to pay with.

 

 

Yes. Usually give an extra $20 -$50 depending on the amount of work.

 

20%

 

You guys giving 20% either
A) Get small tattoos
or
B) are rich as hell and i want your job lol

 

Yes. Tip your tattoo artist. They don't make what they charge, unless they own the shop. Plus, they'll remember you if you need a touch-up later on. A good artist is worth a good tip.

 

Yeah, I usually tip them whatever I can. I love my tattoo artist.

 

You ALWAYS tip your artist. That's just how it works if you want to keep them happy.

How much depends on how much work you got and how much they charged you. 20% works or just toss them an extra $50-60.

 

So by that logic, I am guessing everyone here also tips their CPA/tax preparers, lawyers, dentists, doctors, hotel room maids, baristas, etc?

 

You've never slipped your dentist a hundo before?

 

**** giving them just a tip. Slide them the whole shaft.


Tipping culture in the US is pretty retarded. That said, I follow it as well because I don't want to labeled a cheapskate. Around home, I tip bartenders, delivery guys and so on. In Vegas, I tip everyone lol.

 

I lold!
+1 though. Mercia, where the burden of paying employees properly falls squarely on customer.
