The service I got was slow. I come here all the time, so i should know how things should be around here. My waiter sucks, I demand that he be fired.
[Paraphrased, but this is actual feedback I got the day before mothers day, when our dishwasher was broken. And yes, he stiffed me, because of course]
I’ve also had a father tell his children that “tipping is optional and they should be happy with 5%” after I spent an hour and a half busting ass for his family’s ridiculous requests. After taxes and tip out 5% can literally be less than zero into your waiter’s pocket, fwiw.
Y’all suck. I assume anyone I see bitching about waitstaff getting tips, or implying they dont tip, is an asshole, because IME those are the complaints of an asshole. Tipping culture in general is a whole other topic that there can be reasoned and nuanced discussions about, but if your take is “tipping sucks and I don’t have to,” then you are willingly taking advantage of a system that denies people of the fruits of their labor.
