A lady on Twitter has said that she thinks it is necessary to tip waiters after good service if not she would advice the individual to sit at home.

Some of her followers agreed with her :

@ihuomasinachi
I don't know who raised these people. I know things are hard but a little extra won't kill them. If you can't afford to tip 10 to 20% then you shouldn't eat out.

Some did not agree with her logic:


Mr. Nath: According to your logic: Every time you get good service, you should tip. If you get a 1000 good services and you tip them all, what would be left in your bank account? Tipping is not mandatory, it is whenever you have surplus and you were wowed by the service + your mood.


t3niola: Lol I absolutely walk out when I get my hair and nails done. I paid for the service and that has fulfilled my end of the contract. The solution to waiters being paid badly is to pay waiters more, not to transfer the burden to the customer who has already paid.

Do you believe tipping should be mandatory when the service is good?

It's not mandatory but it's necessary. Also the fact that almost everyone tips does not mean that those who choose not to do so for reasons best known to them, should be seen as bad or stingy people.

Na so olosho Dey start

See, all these bourgeois Nigerians should stop trying to make something the norm here because it is the norm in some First World country. That shit is annoying AF! We are not the same as them. The vast majority of us make far less money than they do in the West. Plus services here generally suck!

Tipping is an American thing. The British don't even tip like that. You tip if you want. Na for America tipping dey almost mandatory. In America sef, there's a certain percentage you tip; if you go below that percentage, you're seen as cheap.

I have paid for the services rendered. Giving anything extra should be entirely up to me. And if I don't give that extra, it is totally fine; like I said, I've paid for the services rendered.

Lol. Someone now said if you can't afford 10 to 20% tip you shouldn't eat out. Classic American thing. She got that 10-20% thing from America, no doubt.

Lol.

So I'll go to Mama Nkechi's bukka down the road, eat 300 naira food (with one miserable looking piece of ponmo) and tip her on top the 300, because wetin happen?

These people are bourgeois Nigerians, and they're out of touch with the way majority of Nigerians live. Nansense.
