Went to dinner tonight. The bill was $58. Put $100 bill in folder. Waitress never came back. I sought her out and asked about my change. She said she assumed it was a tip because I didn’t pay with smaller bills. WTF

This is one of my biggest pet peeves and I don't give a damn if it comes across as complaining.

A few months ago I walked in and gave the hostess a 20 dollar bill for a 12 dollar to-go order. She said "do you need change." It's like some of these hoes really do think that they're Jedis. It's just bizarre.

Not sure what the hell goes on there Sunday nights but it makes a killing from the looks of the parking lots in that area

Maybe not that exact scenario….but entitlement is very indicative of the industry absolutely!

We have a system where the guy carrying & unloading lumber to your truck is not owed a tip but a someone carrying food to your table is.

I’m done.. you don’t deserve a tip because I walked up to a counter to order a coffee or drink. My new favorite thing to do is watch their face when you hit no tip. Companies are paying less with the expectation that everyone will tip 20% or more on each transaction.
