CruiserBruce Posted November 28, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 28, 2022 The bartenders/bar staff typically work under a contract where the tips are split unevenly between the bartenders and waiters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

navybankerteacher Posted November 28, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Who gives a damn. An automatic !5% 0r 18% tip is automatically added. If you think throwing a cash tip on top of that is going to get you a "generous pour" on your next round you deserve to get bilked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldsc Posted November 28, 2022 #7 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Here we go again. Yet another "tipping thread". They are automatically getting a 15% tip even if you do not want to give them more. You can't even stop them from getting the 15% which is outrageous if they just pour you a coke or a beer. I would suggest that the moderator kill this one before it gets out of control.

It all depends on the cruise line and how they handle this situation. On some lines (Carnival) they get to keep any extra tips, on others they have to put it all in the pool. My personal philosophy is this- if a tip (or extra tip, in this case) is warranted I leave it and then I don't worry about what happens to it because I have absolutely no control over that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K32682 Posted November 28, 2022 #9 Share Posted November 28, 2022 No idea and I don't care. If I'm receiving excellent service from a bar tender I will provide a cash tip over and above the automatic gratuity as a sign of appreciation. While I hope the money goes entirely in their pocket it doesn't matter to me if they have rules requiring it to be split. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
