(D)There are a lot of different tipping cultures in different countries. When you go to the restaurant, you like the service, go ahead andgive your waiter or waitress extra money. We call the money tips.      In Taiwan, there is 10% service charge added to your bill, so you don’t have to tip. In Japan, there is no tipping culture. InAmerica, tipping is much more important. When you take a taxi, stay in the hotel, or go to a restaurant, you need to tip for the drivers,housekeepers and waiters. For example, if you go to the restaurant, you spend 140 dollars on your meal, you have to tip at least 14dollars. (Tips are from 10% to 20% of your bill) At last, you pay $154 in total. When you check out, your waiter will give you the bill,you can write down how much you want to tip. You can pay in cash or use the credit card. Or when you stay in the same hotel for onenight, the housekeeper clean the room for you, you can also tip 2 dollars.      Some people may think they don’t want to tip at all. However, you have to tip unless the service is really terrible. Some peoplestill don’t know how much they should tip, but it is not polite to ask waiters. Don’t worry. You can use the apps to calculate tips. Youjust need to prepare enough money, and enjoy the service.
