Anyone knows an ant can't move a rubber tree plant I've got about a year and a half to convince my wife that tipping works differently in America to over here. She's a bit set in her ways. If it's expected everywhere why don't they just include it in the cost of the food and pay the staff more?

Because anything more on the staff bill means more tax, potential NI liability, effect on pensions, etc.tips don't go through the books.
If they are "performance related" how can they then also be "expected"? If the customer thinks you did a crap job, then surely you should get no tip?
