Tipping Question

Happy Hour paid for by the company, do you still tip a buck at the bar when you get the drink?

Yes, tip the bartenders.

No. Whoever is paying will tip at the end.

No, they won't. At least not worth a damn.

Jake is correct the company does tip at the end, but it seems like I should still tip when I get a drink.

It was discussed in an earlier post that it's best tip while your drinks are coming because otherwise you're liable to get bad service. Also, to the OP, was it happy hour like your boss said "Hey, let's all go to the bar?" or did your company bring in bartenders for a private thing? You could also just find out whether or not your company is just paying for the drinks or if they're including a tip.

Who cares if they are tipping at the end... tip a buck and make the bartender your friend.. It's a win/win situation!

yes.

Generally, no, as the company should be tipping on the whole tab if not already added by the joint. If the bartender is a really hot chick, though, you should tip.

Yes. The bill at the end will likely be huge and I really doubt the person signing it is going to give a 15-20% tip on it.
