BillShrink has posted an infographic on the history of tipping. There is always a bit of controversy around tipping. For me it seems that tip jars are appearing everywhere. I follow the simple rule that where a person does me a service above and beyond the call of duty, they get tipped more. At a local restaurant, our waitress knows us by name, and provides good service. She routinely gets tipped 30% or more. Here is another tidbit from the infographic:
One simple method of increasing tips, drawing a smiley face on the bill, increases a waitresses tips by 18% but decreases a waiter’s tip by 9%.
I will have to check next time to she if our waitress draws a smiley face on the check. I have never noticed. Hit the link below for more.

Very interesting. Write if it really works. As for me, I’m not a waitress but it is interesting to know how a smiley face influences people.
Are these sessions exclusive for specific set of people? How do we get to know about such sessions and what do we need to do for attending the same? Please let me know.
