Why would you tip for someone doing their job? Do you tip the pilots for getting you to your destination on time? Do you tip your doctor for prescribing you the correct medicine to make you feel better? Do you tip the police officer ensuring your safety?

The answer to all the above is no. Why? Because they are simply doing their job. Waiters are no different.

Because this is how or culture has chosen to compensate people who preform this particular job.

haven't seen you post enough to know if you are dumb or trolling. I'm going to say trolling because I like to give people the benefit of the doubt.

Do you even know what TIPS stands for you stupid frick? To insure proper service. You tip because waiters keep your drinks full and take care of whatever you need. Oh and btw, go frick yourself with a cactus

I can't fly the jet, or prescribe medicine, however they've been compensated handsomely for their service. I could get off my arse and tell the cook what I want, refill my drink, go get my food, and then clean my table.. but I appreciate the $2 waiter so much, I leave a couple extra bucks for allowing me to sit and enjoy dinner with my friends or family.

You are an idiot. None of those jobs make less than minimum wage. We can do away with tipping, but food costs will go up. You end up paying more than if you just left a tip. Most people become a server, because they end up making more than minimum wage. IMO that is actually a smart move. Take a job where you can make more money.

I've got a good idea. Just make your food yourself. It will never be wrong and you won't have to deal with the "face" of a company ringing your day.
