Alright ladies and gentlemen, here is a free lesson in tipping from me to you. First off, 15% is a MINIMUM!!! What that means is: if your server is adequate, then he/she deserves 15%. If they do a good job, then they deserve 20%. If they are amazing, then I leave that up to your discretion, but it should be a good tip. Now, I realize that some of you are really bad at math, but you can go to the Hallmark store, spend like $2, and get a little card that will spell out 15% tip for you all the way up to around $150. There is no reason that a waiter/waitress should ever get a $7 tip on a $80 check. There's NO excuse for that. Also, a myth I'm going to dispell for all of you out there in internet-land is that waiters make minimum wage. I don't know about other states, but here in VA, we only make $2.13 an hour plus tips. That is far below minimum wage. If we don't get any tips, we don't make any money. So, in conclusion of this rant, tip your waiter. We don't serve you for our health.
