I am a waitress and have been for many years. I understand that my job is to wait on you, but you are normally not my only table, AND it is NOT my fault that your food was cooked wrong or it took longer than normal, i dont cook it, i just serve it. I also dont understand how people can go out and then leave a bad tip. bad service deserves a bad tip, and good service deserves a good tip. by the way, it is usually considered a good tip if it is between 18 and 20 percent of the ORIGINAL bill. so if you got a discount, had a coupon or the kitchen messed up your food and your bill was taken from say $50 to $35, and your server worked their butt off to make you happy, dont leave them three dollars. We are humans too and we do make occassional mistakes. there is a lot that we have to remember. please be nicer to us. Let us say what we are required to say when we greet you, please dont be rude and try to understand that its like being a parent, never a moment where somone doesnt need something
