Well, the restauranteurs know they pay low wages. I use the "she could be my daughter or my mother" standard for tippiing and I always tip 15% at least and if she or he makes me think one could be my child, I tip 20%. That is the way the system is. I even tip bad service because anybody could have a really bad day. I guess I am a compassionate conservative, I feel admiration for people who do the worst job and depend on the kindness of strangers. Heck I tip our garbageman, movers, people who deliver things. I even tip our lemonade stand kids in the summer. I tip the grandchildren for existing. Maybe that is why I am not rich. I feel good however.

This is an interesting thread which brought to mind the new reality show "The Restaurant"
Has anyone that has watched this have the desire to go to Rocco's? What did it for me was the sweat dripping of the chef as he prepared a beautiful looking plate for the unsuspecting diner in the dining room.
Thank you, but after seeing that show, I can't help but think that Rocco's didn't do much for it's reputation by allowing cameras in. Just my thoughts
