Why is tipping such a hard concept. I don't understand. Are some people just never given the memo on how to tip? When it's necessary, etc.? My hourly wage is around $2 while waitressing which should average out when tips are added in to a decent hourly rate. But when customers don't understand that yes, you are supposed to tip the waitress running her ass off for you, covered in chocolate and strawberry syrups after making her 5th malt of the hour, it doesn't always work out so well. I'm not trying to be greedy, but I think I am a pretty good waitress, worthy of a decent tip. And it's more of what it says about the customers. Do you not feel that I am worthy of your tip? What more do you want from me to earn a decent tip? I think you should have a base tip, and then you can alter it because of really excellent or really poor service. But come on, $2.00 tip on a $20 ticket? That's not good. Not good at all.
And for the love of god, TIP BEFORE DISCOUNT! If your kids are eating for free, and I've refilled their drinks twice, gotten them ice cream, AND have to clean up the ridiculous mess they've left, at least leave me to $1 I would have earned if you had to pay for their meal.
This is the rant that never ends in my mind.
