Nearly everyone, regardless of gender, who's dating is stressed about the associated costs. Although the majority of people are stressed about the cost of dating, they differ on how they think about who should pick up that first tab. Overall, 44% of people think the person who earns more should pay for the first date, Self found. The remaining fifth of respondents said whoever organized the date should be responsible for the bill. Though it was the least-popular response overall, etiquette expert Diane Gottsman says deferring to the person who organized the date may be the most reasonable approach.

They want to do the right thing," says Diane Gottsman, an etiquette expert and owner of the Protocol School of Texas. Run your credit card at a restaurant, and your server will hand you a receipt with a "tip" line. In a recent survey from hotel software firm Canary Technologies, 79% of hotel guests said they think workers should get tips. But hotel workers in the survey said only about 30% of guests typically tip. As for a tip, you don't need to break out your wallet for directions to a nearby coffee shop, says Gottsman.
Cleveland ranked No.1 on the list with diners there adding a 20.6% gratuity to their checks, on average. San Francisco brings up the rear, with a 17% average tip. Just about every transaction you make these days, it seems, comes with a tablet being flipped in your direction with suggested tip amounts. As long as the server doesn't stick a fork in my eye, they get 20% — more if they're especially good. I recently picked a few things up at a local grocer/convenience store/deli, and when the touchscreen flipped, I was prompted to tip 20%, 22%, or 25%.
But if you don't want to be caught unawares next time, here's what etiquette pros say to do when you receive an unexpected gift. That may have been a poor decision, says Diane Gottsman, an etiquette expert and owner of the Protocol School of Texas. Start by giving the gift you've received its proper due. From there, you can decide whether or not to reciprocate with a gift of your own, a move that etiquette experts say is entirely optional. "You can follow up with a gift in a day, a week, or even a New Year's gift," Gottsman says.
Apple staffers appear to have mixed reactions to the firing of former executive, Tony Blevins. The tech giant terminated Blevins in response to brash comments he made in a viral TikTok. While some staffers were surprised by his termination, others told the Journal the decision was important to enforce inclusion and prevent discrimination at Apple. "We all know the old adage 'loose lips sink ships,'" Diane Gottsman, an etiquette expert and founder of the Protocol School of Texas, told Insider in September. After he was fired, company executives still planned a going-away party for him — a move Blevins told the Journal he felt was "hypocritical" after firing him.
During the season of giving, good etiquette dictates that you offer a tip to the people who make life a little easier throughout the year. Before you panic about adding 20 people to your budget, the first thing to know about holiday tipping is to give what you can afford. "Good tipping feels good for everyone involved," says Daniel Post Senning, co-author of "Emily Post Etiquette, The Centennial Edition." That means if any of the recommended tip amounts feel steep, it's not out of line to adjust downward to fit your budget. Remember, these aren't requirements, but suggestions meant to give you an idea of whom you might want to thank this holiday season.
You may be one of those people who, for the sake of expediency, is happy for everyone to split things evenly. "The last thing you want is a situation when the bill arrives at your table," Daniel Post Senning, co-author of "Emily Post Etiquette, The Centennial Edition," tells CNBC Make It. If you're worried you're going to foot a non-proportional part of the bill, speak up early, says Senning. Or, "I'm going to keep things really small tonight, so I'm going to ask for a separate check." "Say, 'I'm covering these two' — that way you're telling the server, not the table."
