Are you a good tipper?
|
|
|
|
yep....my kids throw a fit because I go a bit overboard with tipping...but I have waited tables...if I get great service...it is well worth it
|
|
|
|
I start at 20%
it either goes up or down depending on the servers attention to detail...I do not penalize the wait staff if the kitchen is the problem... |
|

Usually yes. It depends on the service. I have had some rude waiters/waitresses.
I actually had to walk up to the ice water/tea pitcher and refill it myself a couple times. That's pretty bad. |

Depends on the waiter/waitress, but I usually give at least 15% and go up from there if they really did a good job.
My brother in law is a terrible tipper, I hate going out with him and my sister, we wind up in an argument over it. They typically wind up paying for my dinner (which is great), but then I tell him that I WILL handle the tip. |

it depends on my money situation at that given time
|
|
|
|
Yup
|
|
|

I feel if you don't have the money to give a good tip after a meal, then you dont need to go out to eat.
Yes, I tip well. Been in the business for over 10 years. |

One time I think I may have over tip. If that can ever happen that is.

Did someone say waitress?
Or is it a waiter? |
|
|
|
Yes. I use to bartend and waitress. Depending on where I am going and what I am eating/drinking is how I tip.
If I am out eating and have drinks too, I start around 20%, 15% for poor service. If I am just drinking, $1 per bottled drink or shot, $3-$5 for mixed drinks. And if I don't have money to tip, I don't go out to eat/drink. |

If Tanyaa was my waitress, I would tip 100%
|
|

I tip at least 20% regardless of how much the bill is. I have left $20 tips for a $10 meal before.
Also, if your meal gets comp'ed by management for reasons other than bad service, I leave a tip that is as much as I would have paid for the entire meal. |

I start at 20% too. I usually go to at least 25% if they were competant. I know how hard it can be working in a restaurant.
