I take the standard percentage (currently 15% here) and adjust according to the service I received. I've tipped as much as 75% and as low as 1%.

I usually start at 20%, higher if the service is good and lower if the service is bad.

I usually tip around 15% and I tip a LOT. My gf commented on it "if you don't have any money, why do you tip everyone?" Because I appreciate good service dear.
