The first time I had a $100+ bill I didn't tip well. Not because I'm a bad peron or got bad service, but because I had sticker shock.


So, you spent too much money, and then decided to take that out on your server? Servers generally tip out 3% of sales to busboys, bartenders, & even kitchen staff sometimes and that is before they are taxed. So if you spend 100 bucks and only leave 6 bucks, you are basically leaving them nothing. You may have got similar service at both places, but if you can't afford to tip on a $100 bill maybe you should stick to cheaper places.
