Nope, never.

I don't see the point in the American system of tipping either. I think its a percentage surcharge on the bill. In my mind, a tip os for good service. Not average service or poor service, so instead of adding a % for the tip, they should just increase prices as its the same anyway.

I so rarely come across good service in Australia I never feel the need to tip.

I especially hate Taxi drivers who expect tips, even when at the end of the trip, I had to give them directions. And the old 'keeping the 5 cents change' trick. I have had this on a number of occasions and stand there until they ask me whats up and I tell them I am waiting for my change. Got that at an EB. Was most annoyed and ahven't been back there since.
