Waiters take no tipper into their own hands.

After waiting tables for a few months not too long ago, I am not surprised...

I'm sure we all certainly appreciate the incremental color, but that has nothing to do with my post.

I am stating that a waiters wages should not be in a discussion regarding tips. Why should I (the consumer) have to make up for the establishments (employer) lack of compensation? It seems that whenever tips are brought up so are the wages and in my eyes their wages are none of my concern.

I tip based of service and amount of food (value) that I am ordering. Not "oh, well the service was okay at best but they don’t make that much, here let me give you some sympathy money"...

Shitty service = NO tip
Good Service = 10%
Great Service=usually $10 - $20

I always pay tips so the only thing that bothers me about mandatory gratuity is that I sometime end up tipping twice. I rarely notice that a tip has already been charged..

Can't view the video. What's the name of the restaurant and dare I ask ethnicity of parties involved?

black peeps and a fried catfish joint and lots of undersweetened tea involved. (last part was added for flare)

Some waiters also make more than $2.13 an hour. I know some Chili's waiters that make $5.45 and $7.45 and hr on top of tips. Some of the nicer restraunts even pay between 1$0 and $15hr + tips.

Just sayin, not everyone makes the "stereotype" wage for a waiter

I just had my grande latte enema. I'll be ready to rip some peoples heads off in about fifteen minutes.

In before 15 minute mark....

Which was 1/2 minimum wage when I started waiting tables. I'm always curious as to why the sub - minimum wage doesn't increase with minimum wage. Hell the minimum wage in san francisco is over $10/hr.

Sean must not have had his coffee this morning. His Kung-fu is all fucked up.

I snorted decaf this morning.

lmao. Servers don't make minimum wage, either. $2.13/hr.
