I will tell you why not: I just make it a habit not to piss off people that have control over my food! If the service was really bad and I make a big deal out of it, then I make sure I dont go back to there again.

Haha have you seen the movie "waiting" ??

And if you're not going back there again, whydoyou need to tip? I'm not going to tip someone who did a lousy job, plain and simple. If my waiter just sucked, im nto going to leave a tip and I'm not going to come back. Tips are for those who were good servers and made my time there a good one-- not for those who didn't do a good job.

OH, waiters who are asthetically pleasing to teh eye also get bigger tips. ;D

I dont understand that logic. The few friends that had worked as waiters say to always tip, but I tip on par to the service performed.

I look at tip as something that is earned in accordance to the service performed rather than something required otherwse I get a stare on my way out.

If you suck at your job, you're boss will tell you. If you're a waiter and you are constantly getting bad to no tip, then I'd re-evaluate your work ethic.

Logic = I dont want anyone messin with my food.

If its a place I go to regularly and if its an isolated fuck-up, then I dont mind....shit happens sometimes. On the other hand, if it happens all the time, I would let them know about it [also wont leave much of a tip] and not go there again. I know it sounds a bit paranoid/stupid, but these ppl have control over my food. Just think about all the stuff a pissed off waiter can do to your food..

I'm always thoughtful enough to think about that. Thats why I never make a big deal or complain until AFTER I have gotten/eaten my food. I have heard more than enough stories from waiter/waitresses to know better than to piss them off before my food is out.
