　　来自美国华盛顿特区的Nathan为我们讲解《在美国如何给小费》

　　Tipping in America is actually not that complicated¹. When you go to a restaurant and you sit down to eat and you have a waiter that serves you, you usually leave around 15-20% of the total bill. So if it’s a 100 dollar bill, you will, er check, you will leave around 15 to 20 dollars in tip.

　　在美国给小费其实没有这么复杂，当你去到餐厅，坐下来用餐，有人给你服务，你可以留给服务员15-20%的小费。如果是一百元的账单，你要留15-20元的小费。

　　Now in taxi drivers, it’s a whole different story. Now you might give, you know 10%, it depends how far you go, if you only go for a little bit you’ll give…like if you go for a 10 dollar trip, you might give 5 dollars. You know, it just depends on how well the service is.

　　如果是打车，则是截然不同的。你必须给大约10%，要看你去多远的地方，如果你去很近的地方，譬如说你打了10元车，你必须要给到5元，当然还是得看他的服务好不好。

　　And also, the important thing is you don’t have to tip if they don’t treat you well so if they treat you rudely or just poor service, you can reflect it in your tip, like I’ve left a 5% tip or a 1% tip to make a point if a server² is really bad.

　　还有，最重要的事如果你没有得到很好的服务，你是可以反应在你的小费上。就像为了表明不满意服务，我曾经就留下5%到1%的小费。
