I was once told that tipping is “rude” in Japan because the amount is so small compared to the great attention and service the server gave. In other words, there’s no possible amount to give for the exemplary service that was given. Therefore, a very appreciative “thank you” is the best way to show gratefulness.

I live in Germany and tipping for food delivery and in restaurants is common but you are not forced to do so (it is not an automatic deduction on your receipt). I travelled to Japan three years ago. We lost a jacket on the street. 30mins later we found it. Someone found it, folded it nicely and placed it on a clean area. ON THE STREET! In every restaurant, we never paid a tip AND got free water and lots of time ON top of the free water free green tea. This changed me so much that nowadays I don't drink soft drinks anymore to my meals. Just plain water or tea. I even lost weight. Japanese culture is just so nice.

I feel like tipping in America is the archetypal example of how seemingly rational actions can lead to negative results when applied widescale. We tip because the servers aren't paid well otherwise, and the servers aren't paid well because they are expected to make up the difference with tips. If we all collectively stopped tipping the market forces would drive the wages of servers up but it would need to be a massive simultaneous decision. However, if only a few people stop tipping nothing will change and those who don't tip are ostracized by those who do and thus the system continues to exist in its flawed form.

The reason tipping is considered “rude” in Japan is because it is seen as you showing pity for someone who has no need for it. Everyone who works in a job that gets tips elsewhere in the world takes immense pride and joy in their work and quality of service. It’s just a perspective thing that makes them feel like you think they are miserable about their work. My wife is Japanese, so we’ve been to Japan quite a bit. She told me all about this before our 1st visit to her home country. However, I did have to insist on one occasion, but I also had to give a long explanation beforehand about how the tip was intended to reflect my appreciation. A taxi driver was giving us a ride to my wife’s sisters apartment. The driver was having trouble finding the address. After maybe 2 minutes of looking he turned the meter off and kept driving us around looking for the address. It was like 3am and he insisted that he didn’t feel comfortable dropping us off in the dark to wander around trying to find it ourselves. It took like 45 minutes of him driving without the meter running before we located the apartment. That was 45 minutes during which he could have had 3 or 4 more fares and he was driving us around for free. If it had been an extra 10 minutes or less, I wouldn’t have cared. But, showing THAT much respect , consideration, and financial sacrifice for us was overwhelming. It definitely took a lot of convincing, but he eventually accepted it. It was something like $20-$25. Again though, I clearly let him know that I was fully aware of the tipping situation in Japan, but that he went like 1,000,000x over what I would have experienced in my country (even though us Canadians are extremely nice and helpful to each other). I fully anticipate that to be the only time I will ever feel adamant about tipping while visiting Japan throughout my life… even though I always get exceptional service everywhere I have gone and everywhere I will go.

It’s especially crazy that you have to tip 20%-30% of the total, regardless of which restaurant it is. Like, whether it’s a $20 meal or a $200 meal, the service provided by a waiter is still the same?? So why do I have to pay the one in the high-end restaurant even more? You’d think that such restaurants make enough money to pay their employees a decent wage. Tip culture is ridiculous, but to me (Asian, but living in Europe) it’s even more ridiculous that Americans actually defend this system.

Like once back when I was in Malaysia, I tipped this waiter in a mall and he refused to take it. So, I just left it on the table. He took the money and he quickly went and bought a beautiful key chain for me and found me in the mall and gave it to me.

"you DON'T HAVE TO tip, but you HAVE TO tip"

In Japan the best way to "Tip" is to thank them, recommend the place to others, and to go back again. By doing that, you will help them profit with more business, and make them feel like they are doing a great job by having so much business and regular customers. It's definitely a mindset change compared to the way we do it in America, but that's just the culture difference. I honestly wish companies would just charge slightly more across the board, ban tipping, and focus on giving good service all the time, but it's just the way American businesses work and I honestly don't see that changing anytime soon.

Thank you so much for this! For years I worked as a cook/chef--no tips--to end up in New Orleans, where every bartender and waitress acts like the world owes them $300/night income for getting the only job their art history and sociology degrees qualifies them for. (Still recalling the time a bartender friend of mine ran back in to tip the waitress who I ask to THRICE ask for water. . .) Ended up changing careers, which once took me to Japan (Osaka) for work. In was after midnight when I first walked into my hotel. The bellhop at my hotel hurried up to me to take my bags and up to registration. Check in was a breeze, and friendly. And I didn't have to ask for any hand with carrying my luggage at all. I'm used to doing it. But getting some help after making my way around Osaka, and being helped to my room was definitely a welcome lagniappe. Then I asked the (same) bellhop if it was okay if I tipped him. He shook his head vigorously but with a smile, and proclaimed, "No no no! This service is a courtesy of the Hotel!" or something to that effect. So much respect for a culture who demands nothing extra for doing the 'bare minimum'--even though the standards they set on that minimum are exceedingly high!

It surprises me how, in the US, when u talk about how shitty the tipping situation is people have only one response 'theyre not paid minimum wages'. Like how their employers arents responsible for that but the customers. The rest of the industries are stupid, Doctors/engineers/accountants/lawyers/other professions too should be tipped. Doctor: i am supposed to save lives but this patient still died. Patient's family: We're sad but heres a tip. Imagine after every flight pilots r tipped coz theyre paid peanuts even though the industry is HUGE. And every passenger is supposed to pay even if they say its not compulsory. 💩

As someone who operates 3 restaurants, the margins are extremely thin. You need to sell a fortune to make a profit, labor will eat well over 30% at a nice restaurant plus cost of goods hitting another 35%, then if you’re paying rent and some one has to pay for operating costs including standard bills then repairs. All this after the immense cost of opening a restaurant. So if you want competent service staff, and your favorite places to stay open, tipping it is. This is CA btw. In a Japan a server makes like 20k a year, good luck putting shoes on your kids feet in CA with that. Tipping increases earning potential and allows career servers to provide for their family.

Me a south east asian: Give no tip? Its cool. Give tip? Sure, it's cool.

I'm not sure everyone knows that some jobs are allowed to pay their workers less, if it's "supposed" they receive tips. The owners like the system because they , and the tax man, are more likely be the ones raking in the benefits. I dealt with that system, but it's a faulty one. I'd like to get rid of tipping, give servers the minimum wage they SHOULD be given, instead of the owner making a profit off the worker and system.. Japan , has it right. The law changes from state to state, but if gen Z wants to do something better, get rid of this rotten system!

Bro you are really good!!! I wish you much success!!!

Your Japanese voice is extra Samurai!

I made this mistake before. The gentleman who was serving me seemed rather perplexed. He was very gracious in his refusal, but I can understand that feeling proud knowing that you did a great job is more than enough for some people. Nothing but love and respect

The real reason why tipping is considered rude in Japan is because, when you already pay for the food, you also get charged for the service so in other words, you already paid for the service and when you want to give them a tip, they get very confused about it because you already got charged for the service and they don’t know what they are supposed to do with the extra money you want to give them.

An even worse thing about tips these days, most of the tip money doesn't even go to the waiter, the manager and the kitchen staff have to take a majority cut. So much so that if the waiter doesn't get any tips that this cut actually starts coming out of their regular pay. So now you have to tip even more cause if you don't the big wigs are going to take money from the waiter under the assumption that you are handing them 20s under the table.

In America, it is illegal to be paid less than the minimum wage. Even if you are a tip worker. As per federal law, if you are a tip worker, your employer BY LAW must pay you the difference. Example: Minimum Wage $10 per hr Tip Worker Wage per hr: $2 Lets say this worker serves one person and makes no tip. By law her employer MUST pay her an additional $8 to bring her paycheck up to the $10 which is standard. If however, this same waitress serves multiple people and they all tip her $20. Lets say she makes $100 in one hour. Those multiple people just paid her wages, so that her boss is no longer required to. She will only get $2 from her boss for the hour. But that'll be it. And thats cumutalive. So lets say in an hour shift she gets paid $16 by her boss. Normally he'd have to pay her $80. But if she got a hundred bucks in tips, all he has to pay her is the $16. Everytime you tip someone. You aren't giving them money. You're giving it straight to her boss. You're paying him so he doesnt have to pay her. The system was created by corporate elitests who wanted to get out of paying their employees. And they paid the newspapers to run articles telling you how disgusting you are for not tipping.

The tipping system in America and Canada is so gross and makes no sense. Why is it legal for businesses to UNDERPAY their workers? Why are customers responsible for paying extra to make up for these lost wages!? Why do some jobs require tipping when they're just doing the bare minimum whereas other jobs where the workers actually go out of their way to help customers don't get tipped? For example, cutting your hair should not involve tipping. That is literally the job. Whereas when you go to a shoe store, you can ask an employee to help you and they'll spend 30 min running around the store, finding shoes for your size, going on their knees to change your shoes, etc. Yet the customer isn't required to tip them.

Lol love the Japanese accent 🤣

Tipping your server is the best system there is by far. It cuts out the middle man. The customer directly pays the person serving them. It encourages better service and servers across the board end up with a higher wage. There’s zero reason to dislike it except this weird mind set that people have where they feel like they shouldn’t have to tip. You are paying your server to serve you. That’s why you tip. You pay the restaurant to feed you. You pay the server to serve you. And everyone wins. If we give employers to pay the servers all that happens is employers make more money, servers make less money, and more restaurants go out of business.

I worked in the city in a restaurant at some point with a lot of foreign students, let's just say the many times i walked out with almost no tip like 10$ for entire full long hours of grueling shift opening/closing it was so sad I felt like crying and totally crushed. The restaurant only gives any wage at all (the about 2.50$) an hour if the overall added up to be below minimum wage. So in total, it was very hard to keep track but it def felt like minimum wage but worse because no security and I am not even sure if the restaurant actually ever comped me any difference. It seemed so easily erased or an oopsy or they just edit the numbers however they like. I def dont work in restaurants anymore after that doesnt give hourly like cafe. The work was sooo tiring like running a marathon the whole time and I did my best to be polite and as fast as possible to everyone. I got back late sometimes to the tables because I had to wait on the bartender or other servers were before me or being mean, people got competitive and totally shoved me out of the way etc like in sports even amongst coworkers. Managers also had favorites even if the favorite werent following rules. I understand that alot of restaurants struggle too and so many restaurants fail. It's just a terrible system entirely for owners and employees.

Tipping became a thing like around a hundred years ago because owners didnt want to pay their workers more. But its still bs cause some owners mind you none corporation owners have shown that charging the right price for the food eliminates the need to tip servers so they can live off their wages. I mean come on most servers make less than 3 dollars an hour But your still funny and i like your vids

I wouldn't say "most" as it varies from state to state. But yeah, it is a real shame in the states that allow employers to pay federal minimum waitstaff wages instead of regular minimum wage.

Tipping exists in Japan. I worked at traditional banquets, restaurant at an onsen resort in the middle of nowhere deep in the country, we’d have lots of retiree Japanese customers. We’d get tips still. Not as often as a city cafe in Australia, but it’s certain not unheard of or that uncommon

The problem I think ppl don’t understand is that restaurants pay servers only enough to cover taxes. If a server makes 0.0 dollars on tips then the server makes 0.0 dollars for the shift. The restaurant could pay them wages but then the food prices will go up a lot and service will go down. The problem is servers that think they deserve a tip when they didn’t do a good job. I served and bartended for awhile. There was a few times when I knew I didn’t do a good job and when they left me little or no tip I just moved on. The other problem is ppl who tip nothing even when service was excellent. It wouldn’t be a problem if ppl weren’t so lazy nowadays.

‘You dare insult me at my restaurant’ 😂 you nailed the accent too

The "American crazy" part really got me😂😂

Yo Josh keep up the good work

00:53 when you started speaking japanese and became an anime character it drove the point home

Don't pay tips in America. Business owners should pay workers with their own money instead of expecting customers to do it.

when you use australian money as a tip 🤣

That's Japanese logic for you! America is crazy! Japan be on point!

I refuse to tip. I will politely decline one as well. Bosses....if I have to subsidize your workers because you won't pay them properly, then you should be ashamed. They represent you, your business and their morale affects my experience at your establishment! If they are miserable, the experience at your establishment will also be miserable, and customers won't return. I waited tables as a second job for a few years, admittedly it was a mate who actually owned the Restaurant.... He paid me pretty well to take care of his customers, and that is exactly what I did. As long as the customer isn't rude, nothing is too much trouble. My mate's business is on display, and I have his uniform on. I represent him - good OR bad! Pay your damned workers properly, or go broke when your business looks like shit. Somebody else will QUICKLY fill that hole in the market....and face the same situation.

Regardless if it’s a “crazy” American custom. Being a waitress or waiter is an actual career. It’s a craft and it does take skill and knowledge.

Waiter in UK here - sure, that's true, but surely career progression should follow the lead of literally every other industry and just pay more? I've worked myself a long CV so I can be considered by higher end establishments in the UK, where you get paid a proper salary - my co-workers have a salary good enough to get a MORTGAGE in a highly desirable area. If you were relying on tips to make that mortgage payment, you wouldn't have that same sense of security.

Simple economics, restaurants can pay every bartender and server a “livable wage,” however the food will cost 4 times, plus they may add gratuity to each bill. It makes economical sense to allow guest to tip according to service. People have a misconception that serves and bartenders just drop off food and refilled drinks. This particular topic can be discussed for hours on end. So I digress. Btw, I’ve worked in this industry for 25 years I refuse to accept a position for under 25 per hour, so imagine how much a 8oz filet would cost?

Very well said. As an "American" who was raised in Canada and has lived in Europe and Australia, you perfectly demonstrated how many people who were raised in the USA react when it comes to tipping or better yet no tipping in other countries. Many "Americans" do not understand that other countries have laws that regulate wages based on economic models not based on politics as it is here in the USA. Thanks for once again using comedy to educate.

I did that too and the butler really refused....

Because it's assumed in the United States that wait staff will be getting tipped, restaurants are allowed to grossly underpay their wait staff. The Federal minimum wage for wait staff in the U.S. is $2.13 an hour. It's been this since 1991.

In Poland you can but you don't have to tip. When I visited the Czech Republic I was at first horrified, that every restaurant requires 10% extra for service. Still, I have travelled a lot in my life and never experienced such an exemplary service anywhere else. So in the end I decided that it was fair 😸

I saw the service free in an a restaurant in Hungary. I don't think every has it, but this one did. The service was lower border fine. The biggest problem with these service fees is that they don't tell you always! You just end up with a higher bill at the end. That's not great customer service.

You don’t have to tip. I dont

Just a random 20s Japanese here. Tipping isn’t supposed to be “rude” at all, it’s just not our option. It’s a managerial job to pay for their employees even though one beef bowl only costs like $5 and you get above-and-beyond service at the restaurant. Also, we make sure if the cash balance reconciles the book everyday when closing the cash register and if it doesn’t match, you’ll be in trouble anyways especially in big chain companies. I’m sure small restaurant owners would accept tips. But when they wanna pretend to be “cool” to foreigners in particular, they wouldn’t take it maybe lol

In Brazil, tipping is optional (10%), but waiters receive a salary

I had an abysmal service once in germany and decided to tip one cent. The waitress asked what is up with that, I said the one cent is well deserved. But somehow she didn't want her tip, so that probably means the wage is high enough where she worked.

so accurate. 😅 in the US once a waiter said “Fck u” to me after not tipping enough. Vietnam and Thailand and many other countries are the same as Japan in terms of accepting tips. I love those humble countries

wow. This is the problem with the tipping system. People feel entitled and that waiter should tell off his boss with that tone for not paying him enough. How can people rely on tips when it dynamic day to day? At least a wage you can budget and bank on that. "How much do you make per year?" "Oh depends on the day" I mean come on. Customers should not be also HR. We go in buy a product or service and leave, we should not have to sit there with a calculator and have to figure out what is fair to pay someone. This is HR of the company or manager to deal with not the customer.

That's not how tipping works in America.. Here's how it actually is: First things first, Is your table a bunch of teens? If so, you can say goodbye to your tip, unless you are a zoomer yourself who is serving them. Is the table black? If they are, then you have approximately a 70% chance to get a tip of less than 5% (even if you are also black serving them) are they black and teens? You get made fun of, and get a 0% tip Are they black women? They complain to your manager, and you get nothing (but your manager likely already knows that they are a typical problem, so you don't get in trouble) Are they mexican / asian / foreigners, who aren't teens? You are likely to get a 20% tip (yaay) Are they a normal family dining out, one father, one mother, and kids? you have a 50% chance of a 20% tip, and a 50% chance of a 5% tip (if they are black) (It's 50-50 chance because blk ppl tend to dine out more often than other races, using money they don't have) I'm pretty sure that covers it, I've worked at multiple restaurants over 4 years, so I know this is the case, (and before you say it's my fault, I wasn't the server, I was bussing tables for the servers, every server says this is the case)

I love the gruff no-nonsense voice of the Japanese shop-owner : almost reminds me of some super-strict Japanese officer from World War 2, just wait for him to draw out his katana to avenge his insult! 😱

I’m an American server, I wish tips weren’t a thing because let’s be for real it ain’t like the first one half the time. I actually like my job for the most part and like talking to the nice customers. Americans are actually pretty cheap though. I make 2 dollars and hour so if the kitchen is busy and the table is pissed they didn’t get their food fast enough I’ll make 10 percent which on a 50 dollar check is 5 bucks. When I’m running carry out I also get paid 2 bucks an hour and people almost never tip except for the occasional regular customer who will do 20 percent on a big order. And it doesn’t make sense for me to get tipped out carry out because I barely do anything but that’s how I make my money. At the same time if we were to actually get paid fairly by the restaurant then food prices would have to go up, significantly, and guess what I have customers getting pissed know when we increase the price of a meal by a dollar or two. Those people don’t tip either so the whole thing is just fucking stupid fuuuurjdududjducjcj

Americans should stop calling it a tip and just call it a service charge. It's like the whole country made up a new definition and agreed to play pretend.
