Reply #19: the amount of the tip should be and is DIRECTLY related to the service and the food [View All]

I am always respectful and curteous to waiters and clerks and cashiers.
but if the order gets screwed up or the food sucks or the service is slow,
It IS going to be reflected in the tip, Thats just the way it is.


Some portion of the public are complete pricks, and always will be.

If you want to know why I tipped 3%, ask me, I will tell you.
There is always a reason.
but if you get pissed I just may end up telling you;
YOU TOOK THE JOB, YOU KNEW THE PAY, SO LIVE WITH IT!


The other night some friends and I went out to a spot on main street
ordered, was served and enjoyed our meal.
I asked for the tab, she said okay...
AND DISAPPEARED FOR 30 MINUTES
I was so pissed I almost walked out without paying at all, It would have been soooo easy.
I couldn't believe they got the hard part right and COMPLETELY SCREWED UP THE EASIEST PART!
at this point NO TIP is inevitable.
Leaving me sitting there with no food or drinks left for 30 minutes is beyond the pale and there must be retribution.
