Re: Tipping etiqutte, should I feel bad/cheap?
I waited tables for a long time, which makes me tip well but also makes me hyper-critical of service. If she wasn't busy and was blowing you off, you absolutely have to complain to HER. This gives her the opportunity to fix things, and you the opportunity to get free stuff. If you complain to her and she does nothing, F her. If she gets you some stuff for free (a meal, drinks, etc), you can justify leaving a tip. In my years of being a food server, I had maybe two or three tables that didn't enjoy my service. I talked to the manager, got them free stuff, and probably got a better tip than I would've in the first place.
