We meet a lot of young people who provide very good services for us, and we always thank them and give them a good (by our standards) tip.

We don't eat at restaurants that are more expensive than the country clubs and we do a lot of carry out. We always pay cash and tip about 25% or more. I guess I would not give a tip if the server or food provider was not nice, but we have never met anyone like that in our 7 years living here. Maybe because we smile and show them respect.
25%…that is ridiculous. For what? Just because they smiled at you?

Do you tip when you carry out?
