[QUOTE="1Kona_Venom, post: 16714016, member: 101429"] If I cant afford to tip, I don't go out to eat; which is never. [B]Mustang Week 2021[/B], Saturday night the restaurant was doing the best they could given the covid "stay at home and get paid" policies and all that shit. My waiter started off rough, but eventually went smooth. I dropped a tip probably 25% on a $180.00 bill. On my way out the door 730 pm people piled up in the doorway waiting on a seat. Asked the receptionist to speak with the manager please. (I draw attention with my demeanor and physical appearance regardless of the circumstances.) Of course the wait line is "all eyes on me". 25 year old collage female, scared look on her face comes out from the back. "I just wanted to let you know that appreciate your staff and all the hard work that they are putting forth tonight. It's pretty apparent your under staffed and some people choose to probably stay home and collect free money while others are out here busting their ass so that me and my friends can enjoy our vacation." I busted out a $100.00 bill, "make sure the cooks and dishwashers in the back room get some of this and do with the rest of how you see fit. Include yourself" She immediately teared up, smiled and thanked me profusely. People waiting to get in were pretty quiet and I excused myself out the door. My point: We live in different times and sometimes >20% may be warranted [/QUOTE]
