They told you your tip had to be 25%? I’ve seen a place before establish the tip percentage for themselves

25% is standard. They're saying they can't afford what is expected.

“Paying 1/5th of the bill extra to the one who provided you service is standard”

25% is 1/4th. 

In certain industries it is standard to tip up to 25%

Fat fingers

Point is still

Tips were never meant to rise with inflation, because 10% of something will always go up with the inflation, you don’t need to adjust for it.

10-15% is the max any tip should be, and it shouldn’t be expected, especially outside of food service.

15-20% has been standard for waiters for a while. Skilled trades like barbers and tattoo artists always were a bit higher

That’s just what you believe in your head, it’s not a requirement or law and it shouldn’t be expected as your compensation since that’s not what it’s for.
