Wow, Australia is so different. No one tips in Australia - for anything. Its disgusting. I feel sorry for people in the service industry.

Don't feel sorry for them, they get paid properly: waiters in America get min $2.60 an hour or something; in Australia the current award wage for entry-level workers in the hospitality industry is about $AUD17.

I tried to tip the dealer at Crown in Melbourne and he laughed at me and gave it back ;-)
