What's your method for calculating a tip?
I use a complex equation as follows...
B
T = ---- x 0.10
(S+G)
where...
- T is the tip
- B is the amount on the bill
- S is the probability that they spat in your food, 0 is not at all, 10 is phlegm fest
- G is the grumpiness factor, 0 being happy and smiley, 10 being Jack Dee.
Of course, in the case of waitresses, the side of me that I really should not cave into adds in an extra factor. F.
- F is the flirtation scale, 0 for charmless Witch of Endor, 10 for leaving her number on a napkin.
In this case the equation becomes as follows.
T = B x (2F + 0.10)
Needless to say it is a perfect system, except for the fact that it is as yet untested and I have tipped anything from nothing (they were miserable and over charged) to 400% (it was The Dorchester and I was young and confused)
