LOL

I think if people want to make choices, they've cast their lot and deal with the REPUTATION and CONSEQUENCES, and if they're ashamed of admitting who they are; that's not my problem....it's theirs.

“You should worry about spit (and worse) in your soup if you are a repeat customer - because nobody in the restaurant likes you very much.”
And you should worry about getting caught and prosecuted.
I can spot a server like you a mile away ( I assume you are a server cause you know all the tricks). Expecting a handout like some bum on the street.
If you don't like your pay get a better job. Maybe one that doesn’t rely on tips. Sounds allot better than spitting in someones food.

Service charge really should be part of the bill.

It should, but it is not, and everyone knows it is not. Stiffing a waitress is theft.


Hell no! The worst service I’ve ever gotten was at a place where they included an 18% gratuity due to the size of the group (about 14).

When the gratuity is included, people often get lazy.

I’m happy to reward great service, or even good service. Don’t charge me extra for lousy service!

"Oh, you are one of those holier than thou, arbitor of all things moral freepers.....cool."

Not at all; I just call it as I see it.

Look around in REAL LIFE, and you'll see what we've become with that "political correctness", and "if it FEELS GOOD, do it" mentality.

Sorry, that's the fact, Jack.

I’m just drawing the natural conclusion from your post.

If you actually do tip, then good for you. It’s the right thing to do.

If the service is worth a tip I’ll tip but I haven’t been to a restaurant in years.

Not bitter at all. Just making a simple observation.
If your so damn rich you can pick up my tip, as I am just a poor “idiot”. You can pay a tip on service that may not deserve it and for that matter pay a handout to someone who has no intention of trying to better themselves and would rather bitch and whine and post their recipts on the net looking for pitty.
You seem to be getting flustered. Maybe time to take a break and go count your millions.
By the way, I don’t remember posting my income.

Unless the service is horrible — as in willfully spiteful or something — you should always leave a tip. 15% is the norm and you add or subtract depending on the quality of service. Not leaving a tip should be reserved for when you want to make a major statement to the waiter. Basically it says “If I were your manager I would fire you”. It should be very rare.

AMEN! Reward your friends and they will protect you!
I will never go out to dinner with CrippleCreek or some of these other ignorant perverts because the Service Heros know who they are! and GOD BLESS what they may or may not being served!
They are DISGUSTING!! I am referring to the Cheap Skates and Non Tippers!

And you would be wrong.
I put myself through college waiting table. Never did anything to anybody’s food - but know second hand about some who did. I only said what I said to make the point that all restaurant personnel dislike the non-tippers, they think they are deadbeats and worse.

You have no clue about me - I never expect something I haven’t earned, and I earned every dime I made serving, because I worked by butt off to provide excellent service.

I have a much better job, thank you (if you only knew!), and my time as a server helped me succeed elsewhere.

Your assumptions are so far off base they are pathetic.

BTW - if you don’t want to tip your server, don’t go to those restaurants and expect them to serve you for free.

I don’t make millions so I know how to cook. I won’t STARVE because I may be a pathetic, ignorant idiot, but I know how to cook. People who make millions more than me must not know how to wipe their a** let alone cook a good meal.

And yet you are the one who quickly resorts to name calling - I will claim that as clear evidence that you are unable to defend your immoral position. Game, set, match.

BTW - you misread me. I am far from upset. It is easy for me do discuss moral rights and wrongs without getting upset. You? Apparently not.

I tip very well. I don't think it is right to bitch about your job on the internet and expect sympathy from bleeding heart republitards when you could shut up and get a job that is not reliant on tips.
