    I have had bad enough service to not even give a tip. I am not the type of person who really is picky or pays close attention to how the waiter works. I had a situation where there was literally nothing right, never asked for a beer refill, and then was double charged on my debit card. That Hooters waitress got a big fat donut for a tip.

      I kinda agree they are doing their jobs but part of what they get paid is tips. Waiters waitresses usually make WAY below minimum wage and without tips would be making less than migrant workers lol.

          Your tip from me with either be about 20% (most commonly), 50% (rarely, but satisfying when earned), or $1.00

            I'm just thrilled this site finally has a thread for members to discuss their tipping habits, thoughts, and methodologies. The board was truly lacking in that regard. If we could only get something going on pit bulls and armbars, I think we'd be complete.

            Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

            You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

                I have been thinking about starting a thread about an incident I had with a local cop, but I figured no one wants to give their .02 on the situation.

Our waiter felt the need to handle other matters at hand instead of our initial drink orders, as well as, our food order. In both instances another waiter had noticed our growing discontent for the situation and jumped into action with a swiftness.
                            We were using a debit card, but wanted our tip to go to the fellow who went out of his way to take care of us. When I signed the bill for our dinner I left a lengthy note for the shitty waiter on why he got no tip. I also gave him some pointers on how he could conduct himself to keep himself from getting burned out due to the frequency of disgruntled customers that I had noticed while eating that evening.
                            We tracked down the other waiter and ordered some dessert to go so that we could write him a tip worthy of his actions. He was working the slow side and decided to swing through the busy side to see what he was missing out on. We also made it a point to let management know how awesome he was.

                            Did he get motorboat?

                                Just when you may have thought the ongoing battle between the 99% and the 1% was dying down, it may have been reignited. A wealthy banker left a $1.33 tip on a $133 lunch at the True Food Kitchen restaurant in Newport Beach, California.

                                To add insult to injury the word "tip" was circled on the receipt, and the banker wrote "get a real job" on the bill. The picture of the receipt was taken and uploaded to the blog Future Ex-Banker by a person who was dining with the anonymous banker. As expected, the blog received a lot of attention and has now been taken down. The author of the blog wrote, "mention the 99% in my boss' presence and feel his wrath. So proudly does he wear his 1% badge of honor that he tips exactly 1% every time he feels the server doesn't sufficiently bow down to his holiness."

                                People online who had a chance to see the blog post before it went offline and those who have been made aware of it on social media outlets are outraged. One person called the tip a "tale of greed and contempt," and another referred to it as "arrogance personified." The Web's general reaction to this story is eerily similar to an almost identical 1% vs. 99% scenario that took place last fall. In Washington state, a waitress received a tip of no money and advice scrawled on the receipt that told her she could "stand to lose a few pounds."






                                Eric, its a photoshop. The story is around here somewhere. Basically someone manipulated the total for their 99percenter website.
