I tipped my waitress 17 cents tonight

Name: Anonymous 2006-05-11 4:30

The meal ended up costing 4.83 but I had planned on giving her 2 dollars out of whatever I had left. I came in and was seated. She brought me my drink and then everything went downhill from there. The place was virtually empty so the workers were able to sit down and talk. She was one of them. Some other guy brought out my chips and salsa so I had something to munch on before my plate of nachos came. IT does and she proceeds to go sit on her ass to talk to other employees for the next 30 min

She doesn't ask me if I want more water
She doesn't check to see if everything is ok
If I had NEEDED silverware, i would have had to ask for this too

when she finally came around to tally up my meal, i was relieved cause I thought i could go home and watch Adult Swim. wRONG! she takes 20 min to ring up my order. There were maybe 2 other people sitting down in the place that were actually eating. the few other groups of people were at the bar or just hanging out so there was no reason for her not to give me the bill. What pissed me off further was that she brough out this one couple's meal fast and within 10 min brought out their bill too. Meanwhile I was sitll waiting. She finally came and I gave her the money. SHe didn't bring back my change like they normally do at the place. I had to ask for my change and she was slow in giving that back too.

I couldn't reward shitty service like that.

cliffs: girl doesn't ask if I need anything at the table, doesn't give me silverware, is slow in ringing up one of maybe 3 orders in the place, doesn't give me change back, then takes forever giving me my money; girl did more sitting on her ass than working so I gave her 17 cents

Why did you even give her money?

Yeah. Tips are stupid anyway. The costumer should pay for what he orders, nothing more. The weitress should be only paid by her employer.

Is this an american thing? Here in AUSTRALIA we never tip.

Thats why I learned to cook (eg. tv dinners, which by the way are better than a lot of resturant food)

The dialogue at the beginning of Reservoir Dogs is my maxim. I mean, you don't tip the bus driver or your teacher or the tech support for being friendly, now do you?

Yeah, but its not legal to pay bus drivers and tech support $2.50 an hour, is it?

and to expound, for shitty service like that, it's appropriate to give an insultingly small tip like the OP did, because it shows that you did not forget to tip, but instead tipped a miniscule amount to show your dissatisfaction.

It's a vicious cycle. Employers EXPECT the waiter/waitresses to get tips, so they pay them minimum wage because with tips, it'll somehow even itself out. So, if noone would give tips, the employers would have to give them more wage and they could work for a more stable income. Everyone wins and I don't have to be pressured into "submitting"

i forgot what tv show it was but it had an idea i thought was ideal. when youre seated in a restaurant, i guess calculate how much you will tip and place that amount on the table in $1's. everytime the waiter/waitress dissapoints you, remove a dollar from the pile. quite amusing i think and very assholish.
