0:25 “The UK”
*circles Ireland*
_Every Irishman disliked that_
+CJ White no i think the french had colonies in the US, not the germans
nobody cares
+Gustavthemagician the guy that created this video is canadian
Sorry Ireland, if it makes a difference your my favourite part of the uk!
Cheers
A Canadian
*Every Irishman disliked that, but only about 1/5th was sober enough to properly hit the thumbs down button*
Do a video on student loans and who they actually benefit.
*Ackchyually*
You don’t tip in Japan. In Japan, respect and politeness is expected at all times. Waiters for example would therefore not accept a tip
I’ve read that Westerners trying to give tips in Japan actually makes the staff feel like they’ve done something wrong and is either offensive, hurtful, or both.
Synical Rabbit yeah they can’t even keep change. I went a year ago and they tried to give me back like 19 cents in spare change so I told them to keep it but they said they can’t have numbers mismatching the books so they aren’t allowed to have it.
Same with most Asian countries, I know in Thailand it may be considered rude to leave a tip. Or at least that’s what I remember of my Thai mom telling me
+Synical Rabbit In my experience in Tokyo at least, the locals know in advance that Americans are weird about tipping so they don’t take offense to it. They know we mean well so they just politely decline
fuckn japan has coins for days. i literally just hold out my pouch of heavy coins and be like keep my damn change.
“Just kidding I don’t pay my income tax”
The IRS wants to know your location…
He’s Canadian, so its the CRA.
+Rafael Alódio
For Tax Fraud? yes.
Says Ireland is part of the UK.
The IRA wants to know your location…
+Rafael Alódio
Ya, in Canada (where he is at) it’s called Tax Evasion.
And that can run you anywhere between $1,000 and $25,000 and potentially up to one year in prison.
Shawn Boudreau that’s what I thought, you can get away with many things, but if you don’t pay your taxes the federales will get you.
Australian here, we don’t tip at all, it’s not even an option say in a restaurant.
But we do have a super high minimum wage though.
+BurblingBarbacoa Only 2.3% of Americans work on minimum wage though. My sister works as a waitress in California and made 60K USD which is like 86K AUD. I know a lot servers making good money, but they don’t like to brag because it’s better if people think they’re poor.
Well that’s not entirely correct. In American restaurants like TGI FRIDAYS they allow tips and coffee places will sometimes have a coin jar near the register
Raising minimum wage just raises unemployment
+Ujurak Spirit Yep, plus businesses will generally cut hours so most people aren’t better off with a higher minimum wage. It just hurts the lower and middle class.
I work in a restaurant in Australia, and it’s definitely an option to tip, but certainly not required. On a busy night I might get max $20 AUD
Casually Explained videos: the only situation in which Comic Sans is appropriate.
Sooooo no comic sans for peer reviewed articles? ?
Santi Decunto Correct
Santi Decunto Do it to assert dominance
15-20% is crazy wtf that’s so much
+Ed Worton So you admit that the employers are screwing them over? And that many of them are being underpaid? Why would the burden be put on the customers? The owner is the one thats being cheap and its their responsibility to pay their workers minimum wage.
I’m American and I still tip, but we are so backwards with many issues other developed coumtries have no problem with. I like capitalism, but this is late stage and not good for the people. Theres a minimum wge for a reason.
+sonicstormer Yes I’m aware. I feel fortunate to receive the extra $10-20 tip at the end of my shift at the small bakery business I used to work for as a cook. Even though I worked at a very wealthy area, it was enough to pay for my gas. I think tips varies on type of business (Asian/ Mexican/ American restaurants), size, and location, and how the business conducts services (if they have servers out not).
Guillaume Jubinville-Leblanc Thank you!
Not always
+sonicstormer don’t you get more money tho?
I just tipped Casually Explained by turning off my Adblocker before watching this video 🙂
I didn’t tip because I’m not a coward
Coward
Coward
I tipped him 15% of what I paid to watch the video.
Not only did I block his ads, I stopped the video before he got to his own channel “merch.”
4:00 price is 14.89, so I’d tip 11 cents.
The Netherlands wins again.
price 14.89, so i’d tip 0.
I’d say the UK wins again, but we are on a losing streak…
+Lord Chumpington oi, you have an internet loicense?
Gelukkig zijn de verwachtingen hier ook niet zo hoog
“Massage therapist? I dunno, depends what ending you want”
?
Patient: *Says nothing
Doctor: “Your kidney will make a fine addition to my collection”
Plus you’re paying the doctor to take your kidney via co-payments
Patient: Guess I’ll die then.
“I don’t tip because I’m not a coward” is my new favorite excuse.
+Taryn KellyThat’s one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard. Let’s look at this logically: What would you do if no one tipped you? Do nothing? Then you’d be fired, and wouldn’t even make the wages the restaurant is paying you.
When a cashier processes your order, do you tip the cashier? Or can the cashier just say “no tip, no service – next!” Of course not. That’s because the cashier is already being paid by establishment to serve whoever visits that place – just like a server.
“You might not like it, you may not agree with it, but it’s one of our customs”.
Another idiotic statement. Women not being able to vote was a custom – in fact, it was a law. I bet you’d like to change the custom. If a custom doesn’t make sense, maybe it should change.
“You can’t expect to eat out in America whilst not tipping without someone calling you out.”
And you can’t expect to not do your job and not have people complain to your manager.
Now, sometimes a tip IS appropriate. If my taxi driver helps me carry my luggage to where I’m trying to take it, then it may be appropriate to tip him for that (and if I’m a notorious no-tipper, he can REFUSE that extra service, which would be fair), as he’s going beyond what his service is for. But you don’t “deserve” a tip for doing your job that you’re already being paid for.
+Ivy if you’re the type of person who would do that to anyone for any reason, you don’t even deserve a job that even pays minimum wage
Ihate You it’s fully within my right as a server and okay with my managers for us to refuse service to anyone especially those who don’t tip. I find it repulsive to go out and rip people off by not tipping. To each their own
allenearljunior I work a total of 55 hrs a week between two jobs. I love working. I love both of my jobs. And it’s hilarious you think that all that it is is running food to your table. Most of the time I’m cleaning And doing side work.
I would laugh, I wouldn’t spit in your food.
You’d think tipping would incentivize better customer service then you go to japan and wonder why the hell you’ve been tipping your whole life.
Better food, better service, papa Japan’s.
+eli You’re generalizing when it comes to service. It depends on what type of restaurant you go to. I don’t think you’ve ever been to Europe before.
I’ve been to over 20 states. Yes, I know that there are hard working people, but there are also many lazy and entitled people.
The service is inferior to many other developed countries overall. Just look at international airline reviews as an example. They will tell you to never take an American carrier because of inferior service
+yuyt tuy
First off, it is not a generalization, it is an average. European restaurants are usually much longer and more deliberate in their planning of meals. With American restaurants they cook a meal you eat then go. Now what is true can change depending on the type of restaurant you are going to, but again these are averages.
Secondly, if you are going to respond to someone, read their full reply first. “Go to fly over states and you will see plenty of respectable people working hard. However, the problem with America is the Entitlement of the newer generations.” America’s new generations are simply entitled lazy pricks who are mostly focused on pleasure and throw responsibility out the window. It is why we have brain dead spastics mumbling on tracks about women they fuck and money the get, and it sells. The vast majority of service are populated by those younger gens. It is not about Americans being lazy and rude, it is about a specific generation in america being that way. Many of which say they hate America in the first place.
P.S. I not an older person saying this. I am a gen z saying this.
+eli If you want a full course meal, you can get that anywhere. If you’re looking for a quick bite, same thing. Most people don’t have the time/money to spend hours at a restaurant every day that’s why fast casual restaurants are getting so popular.
AaronAnonymous you’re the biggest weeb ever, please leave whatever country you’re in and go and stay in japan
AaronAnonymous it’s culture not tips.
I always tip with a smile ?
*Don’t try this at home kids*
yeah, try this at a resturant
* . •Ambox• . * U RIGHT
“The UK *Circles UK and Ireland*”
*Carefully scrolls down in fear of angry Irishmen*
Just relax and try to enjoy the channel while we wait for his car to get bombed by the IRA.
it’s the most unreliable system and offensiv thing ever….. If you don’t, they look at you like youre a cheap beggar and if you do it is still not enough, and if you tip to much it does not serve the restaurant well, because maybe it was really bad and the tipping was not deserved at all! Hate tipping. In US that is, im gladly tipping in other countries, round up or give dollar extra or 2 or whatever it’s easy it’s reliable. and it does not hurt anyone, and the best thing is the tipped pwerson will be more thankful because she got tipped because she did good, not because i had to!!
Tipping in Japan is a big no no. They find it disrespectful
+Avenger I don’t live in a small rural town. Your first mistake is diving right into an expensive apartment/house.
+Ivy I work at Subway on minimum wage. You’re just dumb.
+Seth Miller There’s your first issue. Don’t get an apartment or a house right away. Live in your car and save up.
+Internet User this is high quality b8. Well done
+Kyle Belouin It’s not bait though. The problem is no one knows how to make good decisions or how to wisely manage their money.
I just leave 15% of my food on the plate and don’t tip.
Take this man to Harvard
Edgar Flores geniuses like you are the ones need to be in the illuminati
Or you can Over Tip and just tell the waiter or service provider that they can be below average for the next few customers.
+Edgar Flores we have a hero in our ranks ✊?????
Outstanding move!
Japan doesn’t like tips. “Service should always be outstanding”.
Gotta love how he doesn’t do his research
Yeah when we travel to japan may old man tip this waiter and he just look at us with a unsatisfied look. Then we ask the friend of my dad he says japanese worker expect to give 105% performance to their work so when you give them tip they consider it as insult because they don’t do their job as expected.
Male US babies: *get born*
Doctors: I’ll take the tip off that
+Ombro Lol, somebody got defensive. “Less appealing to women”. Haha. You must not be from the USA. It’s certainly the opposite. I struggle to see how it’d feel better when there’s flap of skin covering your tip. You’re clearly not losing anything that important, we have plenty of perfectly healthy, functional, and sexually active men. “Has nothing to do with how it looks”. Ha. Maybe not to you.
Honestly, I could just halt your whole ridiculous, clearly biased, spiel with one simple thing. If you’re circumcised, “dick cheese” ain’t a problem. That’s in addition to your dick not looking like an earth worm.
P.S. Foreskin doesn’t make your dick bigger.
+__________ You know the skin moves back right? It’s not just stuck up there, when erect an uncircumcised penis looks the same as a circumscised one, only it has the extra movement so you don’t need to use lube.
You know how you can get condoms that are “ribbed for her pleasure”? That’s what a foreskin already does. It increases the woman’s pleasure by not just having a plain shaft with nothing to simulate the woman with.
Also it’s not the foreskin that makes it better for the dude, it’s the lack of that makes it worse. Not having a foreskin makes it desensitised.
And dick cheese? What the hell is wrong with you? Don’t you shower?
+Deadfinfox101 Well yeah, it doesn’t stop masturbation, but the fundamentalist idiot who started the whole thing thought it would.
A fundamentalist being wrong is pretty much a given.
Fun fact(?):
Circumcision is so popular in the US because the guy who invented cornflakes wanted to stop boys from jerking off.
+Ombro might of caused an opposite effect. Least mine don’t look like a disembodied earth worm. These 20 some years since it happened, only now do I realize; I’m different.
