From the historical origins of the word "TIPS" in England to the modern-day pressure of credit card machines in Parisian restaurants, I share my personal perspective as a former waiter and bartender on why the tipping system might be broken.

In this video, you will learn:

The History of Tipping: Is "To Insure Prompt Service" a real acronym or just a legend?

Tipping Around the World: Why is giving extra money considered rude or impolite in Japan?

A Waiter’s Secret: A personal story about how tipping creates hypocrisy and inequality in customer service.
