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.

I disagree with you. If a business expects for you to pay the service help then they need to bill you for whatever amount is due. Figure the amount of the tip due and add it to the bill. Better yet, they should pay their employees a reasonable wage, post a ‘no tipping allowed’ sign and be done with it. If that means that the cost of the meal is higher than currently listed on the menus, so be it.

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!
