Other - Dining Out

mostly for me its the guest that sits in your section for hours on the buisiest nite of the week, and then tips less than 10%
GRRRR.......
but a new one cropped up tonite.... a lady wanted a glass of water with a bowl of lemons, I am not kidding, the woman made lemonade (which we have on the menu!)
I brought her like 4 wedges at first and she got ticked off at me..... she wanted at least double that when I came back the next time. seriously I think I gave her 3 whole lemons!

I've been noticing more and more tip jars showing up in the most ridiculous places. Subway, donut shops, pretzel stores, coffee shops. These people aren't going above the call of duty. They're following standard protocols and recipes.

Now don't get me wrong. I've been working retail my whole life and I know that it's a hard job, but these employees are being paid regular hourly wages. They are not waiters who only make $2 an hour. They're not in an industry forced to live off tips. I shouldn't be expected to tip someone to pour a cup of coffee or make a sandwich that they are being paid to make.

Why is it that when people come into a restaurant, they insist on telling the host or manager where it is that they want to sit. Maybe the booth is more comfortable, but the host has been trained to place customers where they will get the best service based on the server's ability to perform their job. Why does the customer feel as though they have a right to tell the host how to do his/her job? Let me know, folks.

Thanks to Yahoo posting some tipping questions on their home page, I feel more educated about tipping in restaurants. But a lot of people made the point that servers deserve big tips because they only make $2-3 per hour. What about states like Washington where even the waitresses make the state minimum wage of $7.93 per hour?

P.S. I'm not trying to be cheap. I'm just pointing out that if that is the argument for tipping a large percentage that so many people made rather than an actual service-based tip then it should be less in states where servers are paid more.

if i go somewhere and i order something and it was made correctly and i dont like it, i dont eat it, but i dont expect to get my money back, thats why you read the menu and ask questions before you order soemthing, and if you are in a fancier place, and you don't know what stuff is, then go eat someplace cheaper, i dont know how many times ive brought out the right thing to a table and people didn't know what they were ordering so they specifically ask for it to be free, why should others have to pay for your ignorance?

How much should I tip if I get great service, good service, adequate service or bad service?

If I get great service I would tip anywhere above 25%, if I get good service I would tip 20-25%, if I get adequate service I would tip 10-20%, if I get bad service I would tip anywhere less than 10%, if I get extremely poor service I would tip them a quarter and report them to the manager.

Name a restaurant chain you've stopped going to. Why? Was it the price, lack of service, poor food preparation or presentation, menu selection, boring atmosphere, etc?

Have you ever made a mistake whether it be with food, communication, or familial matters out of hand, as a customer, waiter or waitress and what did you do about it?
