Tipping your waitress?

[Springs1]

When I go into a restaurant I almost always get the service I expect because I am not overly demanding on the staff. My orders are almost always right and the drink service is almost always exactly how I like it. This proof must mean you are absolutely wrong!

There are NO SUCH THINGS as "DEMANDS" when you are getting served, because they are there to do EVERY SINGLE SOLITARY REQUEST YOU ASK. That's what the tip is for.

It's not my fault if you don't want many modifications. I do have a lot of modifications, because I am a picky eater.

It doesn't PROVE I am wrong. There have been times when my husband ordered his food "AS IS" and things have gone wrong LOTS of times even. For example, our waitress forgot to bring out my husband's baked potato. He ordered his food as it came.

I don't know WHERE you think that proves I am wrong?

Do you notice who gets their food off a tray first? I DO. I as I mentioned before, a Red Lobster waitress gave side salads to a couple first off the *SAME* TRAY as our entrées *BEFORE* OURS when they weren't even in the BUILDING when we ordered our entrées even. So if you don't notice these things, then you don't truly know if you are getting GOOD, FAIR, CARING, and CONSIDERATE service, do you?

Do you check your bill with the menu and compare EACH PRICE to make sure they are charging you correctly? I bet you are too LAZY to do that, aren't you?

If you don't notice these issues and that's just SOME, you don't truly know if the servers are being good to you, do you? THAT PROVES YOU IF YOU DON'T DO THESE THINGS!!

Because you are obviously a ***** of a customer to deal with, I would rather save myself and my staff the headache by turning you away. There will be more customers, I don't need your money.

NO, we are NICER than the servers are to us by when they mess up, we say *THANK YOU* and most of them NEVER ONCE say they are sorry even. THAT PROVES IT! We ask for things VERY NICELY as well.

Another thing, it just proves that since you don't have modifications that you aren't making your servers *EARN* their pay. They are being LAZY most of them when they serve me, because most end up not comparing their written orders and or/menu to the FOOD they are bringing out for OBVIOUS errors.

I heard Skin's fans tip well over 40%, on a daily basis too. They also have a forum. Google it.

It was the GREATEST FEELING when we even had a CHANCE to GO to the Superbowl in 2009. When Garret Hartley got that field goal to get our state's team into the Superbowl, that was the greatest feeling. We got the DVD, Shirts, etc. The onside kick was awesome in the Superbowl game. It sucks that this bounty scandal has come about for the Saints. I feel isn't the idea to make your opponent not be in the game anymore so you can win the game? We will miss Sean Payton this year. Not sure if they will EVER go to the Superbowl again, but I STILL BELIEVE IN OUR SAINTS!! WE WILL GO ALL THE WAY! BLACK AND GOLD SUPERBOWL 2013 here we come!! BRING IT ON!!

If you cannot afford to pay for a service you shouldn't be asking for it. Tipping is expected, if it weren't the meal would cost more and you would have no chance to pay based on your experience.

Do that and the price of eating out goes up. The price of eating out goes up, we eat out less often. We eat out less often, waiters/waitresses get layed off.

Pay for those type of jobs are setup like that for a reason. I would rather have a job making that money and earn my tips than be unemployeed.

The price increase would not be too significant I would bet, if the average waiter/waitress has 3 tables and the average party stays for an hour that would equate to a increase around $2 per table.

But you are saying to pay MORE for the TIP than for the meal, understand?

Honestly, Springs, you seem like a miserable table to wait on, and no amount of tip would make it worth the trouble.

so you say no matter how bad the service they should still be tipped? Hope I am never in a restaurant run by you.

No, I don't understand what you are trying to say here. I never said to pay more for the tip than the meal.

You are putting words in my mouth.

If you are tipping in the 10s of thousands that's WAYYYY THE HELL MORE THAN THE MEAL IS WORTH! YOU ARE STUPID!!

You sound LAZY and VERY UNCARING!! Your job is to do your VERY BEST to get the tip.
