    For waitresses/waiters, delivery people, and bar tenders, absolutely. Only during those times the normal tip for a waitress was 10%. Now food prices and inflation have gone up 4 fold, but for some reason tipped staff have shoehorned doubling up the tip percentage to closer to 20%.

      Probably because paying 40% extra on top of the posted price of a meal is laughably absurd. Then again, so is tip culture in general.
