Last night I went out to dinner with my friend. The total tab came out to a little over $25, with hers costing over $11 and mine costing over $13. When it came time to pay the bill, I said I would put it on my credit card, and she could give me cash. She said, "I'll give you $12" and handed over $12 in cash. She then instructed me to put down about $4 in tip on my credit card... so essentially, I ended up paying almost the entire tip for our meal.
I feel that she should have given me $13 instead of $12 so that it would have been closer to 15% of her total. I know it's only a dollar, but it's the principle of the whole thing--I know she can do the math and that she knows she hadn't given me enough to cover her tip. Next time she does something like this, should I ask her to put down a little more?
