Re: Splitting the bill.

I think that it depends on the situation. If your server is busy and working a full section, it is VERY much appreciated if you simply pay together. Me standing in the corner counting out change and running credit cards for 5 minutes while splitting 9 checks is just not a fun thing to do when I've got 4 other tables that want stuff. Then again, you did say that you tip well, so I couldn't really complain.
If you do pay separately, it's much nicer to your server to simply work things out yourself with cash before he/she gets back, and then give them the check presenter with the tip already included. "We don't need change" is a phrase that is always appreciated.

What do I care about the server? If we're courteous and give a good tip I'm not going to worry about making a little bit of extra work for him.
