well, there were 8 of us. we were celebrating my brother in law getting hearing aids. me and my mom were on 1 ticket, my sis and her husband and parents were one ticket, and his aunts and cousin were on a third ticket. i ended up giving her like 4 or 5 bucks.
there were 8...I would of included the gratuity on the check...not to mention when a server splits up a check 3 ways, no problem, but thats time I could be with another table improving my tip giving them better service...just something to think about

No. Cracker through and through. Not enough world experiences to know better, IMHO.

well if 10% of 90 bucks is 9 dollars, then 20% has to be 18 dollars. right?

I mean, you, me and projekt and even some members of the clan all explained this to him...
that's like 8 different views on tipping with the consensus being 15%-20%
WTF FINCH!!!!!!!
BTW, I feel i must explain to you that you don't go to a restaurant to evaluate your server...enjoy your meal and tip

what's a good base tip then, fox? even if i get shitty service, i should still tip?
Posted on 8/15/11 at 9:26 am to finchmeister08
you should give a shitty tip if you get shitty service, but what's shitty service?
Does the server have other people in the section? If yes, then try to empathize. Do you notice the other people in his section running him/her ragged...like asking for ranch then a refill then this then that then that instead of asking for everything they need at once...some people actually do this to the point of absurdity...mostly canadiens.
It took awhile for your food to come out...Is that your server's fault. he doesn't cook the food, just puts in the order. Is he/she running food for other servers and helping other tables (as he/she should) I'll admit that sometimes a server just sucks and doesn't care, but I promise you that is not the case most of the time even when it seems like it. Alot of restaurants have their own unique things...sometimes the server has to make your drink, not the bartender, that takes time and servers have other tables responsibilities...servers have to refill ice, restock cups, etc...like I said every restaurant is different, just try to understand...but with all of these things considered if you still deem it to be super shitty, then leave a 10% tip...it's not a good tip, but hey regardless of whether the server was good you took up their table and time and they get passed in rotation so they have to wait unitl all other sections are sat before they have another opportunity to make money.
I'm giving you shite
1) because I like you even though I don't know you IRL
and
2) because your server has to tip out the bartender, host/ess, and/or busboy based on the percentage of what YOU buy not what you tip, not to mention the government will tax him/her regardless of whether you tip, so if you leave a shitty tip you are basically taking money out of their pockets in alot of cases

I'm actually playing boring NCAA.. so I will find my way over here every once in awhile!
After I get paid today, I'm going to rent the new Assassin's Creed for the rest of the week, that will be a fun side project.
