As we know, the relationship of people with tips changes according to their country. I lived in Canada for a year, and I can say that this relationship is completely different from Brazil, where I lived most of my life. But I also visited the U.K. and the U.S., and their relationship with tips are completely different from each other. That's why I decided to compare tips in Brazil, U.K., U.S. and Canada.
Brazil: people relationship with tips in Brazil changes from person to person. Some only pay it when it is included on the bill. Others prefer to pay it when the service is good, otherwise, no tips.
U.S.: The U.S. are maybe the country where tips are taken more seriously. There isn't the alternative of not paying it. You can pay less if you think the service was poor, you can pay more if it was great. But you pay it! There, you should give tips to employees that you've never imagine giving tips for. As an example, bag carriers in a hotel.
U.K.: Tips are common in the U.K., but not as important as in the U.S. People pay less or more, according to the service. But different from America, a bag carrier in a hotel won't get "angry" with you if you don't give him tips or give just some cents.
Canada: In Canada, things work exactly as in the U.S. Don't even dare not giving tips to the taxi driver, especially if you are coming from the airport. The driver won't even open you the trunk for you to take your bags. So... Better give them tips!
