WTF: I'm a guy and the last few times I've worked cover at the bar I've only gotten tips from guys. For once can't a girl smile at me and give me a tip instead of some drunk closet homo laurier kid?

    How do no tips at all sound? Be thankful for what you DO get, dipshit.

    I'm not going to tip someone who is taking money from me to get into a place where I'm going to spend money.

    Why do you even expect people are going to tip you when you work cover?

    as someone else who works at a bar it doesn't matter where you work tips are a given. you make less than minimum wage working at a bar so your salary is dependent on tips. no tips and you make no money, it's the same as someone who works in a restaurant

    OP here, i do appreciate the tips don't get me wrong, i'm just saying it would be nice to not have some drunk laurier guy wearing a polo and a baseball hat coming over and telling me i'm the man while simultaneously spilling drinks all over me, it's bad enough i sit beside the door when it's minus 5 everynight

    i don't think it really matters as long as you give them something, everytime i go to the bar i always just give the 50 cents or a quarter change from my cover or coatcheck. i mean it's not like they're bartenders

    I tip the bartenders generously. They tip out to the rest of the staff.

    I resent paying cover, and avoid it at every opportunity. There's no way in hell I'm paying $5 or $10 to get into a bar, only to have to pay $5 or $6 for every beer I drink (these are the places that don't even sell pitchers), tip the bartender a buck or two for every drink, AND pay some meat head to check my ID.

    If you really want tips make it obvious. I didn't even know they were expected until right now. Put out a jar or something.

    NEVER tip ANYONE except the bartender/waitress.
