You'll need to leave the "If I made..." out of it.
If it's part of your job, and you can't afford it, you're in the wrong job.
By far the most moronic post I have ever read on this site. This statement is so ridiculous I do not even know where to begin.
Of course how much money you have makes a diference on tipping. Tipping is discretionary and based mainly on income level and how much of it is disposable. This is why a movie star will tip a valet driver a $20, a $5 bill for someone else and a buck for another. DISCRETIONARY!
And no, tipping is and has never been part of the job. And to suggest that if someone can not afford to tip then they are in the wrong profession is again, moronic.
