You will get $1M per year tax-free but you are NOT allowed to tip. If there is a mandatory gratuity/autograt, you must ask for it to be removed every time and write $0.00 in the tip line. If they refuse to remove it, that's fine; the point is that you must ask. Everywhere else, you must tip $0.00. If you fail, you will spend the next five years living like benzo.

in the us, eat at low end places and order takeout from mid-grade places.

everyone I've dated in the past 15 years has worked at a restaurant. it's a shitty job.

case in point: the hot bartender at my local bar just turned 30, just got a dui, and is absolutely elated that she has about $500 in her christmas stocking at work. some loser told her he'll triple whatever her biggest tip is on friday, so I'm going to give her $500 on friday for christmas and we'll see if he pulls through. My bonus this year was close to $30,000--the first time I've ever gotten a bonus in my life.

Whether I find her attractive is completely irrelevant, because I'm extremely loyal and would never be with anyone besides my fiancee. I only point it out to distinguish her from the haggard lifers many bars employ.

A key aspect of being part of a civilized society is doing what you can to contribute to said civilized society, including by upholding social norms and conventions. Tipping at 99% of bars and sit-down restaurants is one such social norm. I'm not going to dine out at a restaurant where tipping is part of the social contract and not tip.

Without reopening the debate in re servers in most major cities making $20+/hour and tips and not paying taxes and being grossly overpaid for their skills (or lack thereof), in this hypo you're getting $1mm/year, if the cost to you is that a handful of times/year you piss off a waiter, I think you take the deal. Your wife will understand.

Fair enough re not reopening the debate about to what extent essentially mandatory 15+% tips are fraudlies. I'd still rather not eat out than eat out in the US where tipping is part of the deal.
