> I'm going to Germany for a few weeks (we leave Thursday) with my German class, and my teacher says that in Germany you don't pay the tip in the sense that you leave a percentage of money on the table when you go, but rather that it's included in the bill. Which, in my opinion, is stupid.

How is this different from the restaurant simply paying them a proper salary in the first place? Those costs would still come through to the customer in the form of higher prices for food.
