3根据下面资料，回答题。
Richard :
I´ ve always viewed tipping as a way of saying "thank you" to the one who serves me. I be-lieve what is bad is when no tip is left at all. The better the service, the higher the tip. Unless the service is literally perfect, I never tip more than 10% of the bill. Much like the harder teachers in school, I never give an easy "A. " My assessment is honest.
Daniel :
A tip is a "thank you," but in truth, a tip is payment for service.20% is a standard tip. Serv-ers deserve it for their hard work. Restaurants will never pay more for labor unless they are forced to do so by new laws. Tips make up about 97% of a server´ s total income. Those tips arc needed for survival. So, before servers are paid a living wage, tip 20%.
Kate:
Why should I pay the difference between what the restaurant is willing to pay the employee and what an acceptable wage is? I do pay 20%, but ! hate it. A friend of mine left Europe for New York City, found a job in a restaurant there and ended up making $ 5,500 a month. Enough above mini-mum wage? How about miners, construction workers, resident doctors, etc? Do they get tipped?
Patricia:
18 -20% for good service is today´ s standard. The restaurant and its employees are too polite to tell you this or to put it on their menus, but that is their expectation and you need to understand that. I believe it is good manners to respect this. To do otherwise is to be openly rude. If you dis-agree, you are wise to eat elsewhere, as you are hurting a hardworking professional.
Michael :
Tipping has gotten out of control. I always bad thought it was 15%, and now suddenly servers have made it 20%. I tip 15%, and that´ s it. If the service is really superior, then I work higher from there. Interesting to be told, "If you can´ t afford to tip 20%, then you should eat at home. "
If all those people stayed away, the restaurant would not even be in business.
Now match the name of each person (36 -40) to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra statements.
