Re: Got stiffed on a tip tonight

Apparently high enough that he doesn't have to go to work at Appleby's to pay his bills. [/ QUOTE ] You may be right, but I like to make money everyday. Plus, I'm going to have to go through a full FAA security clearance in about a year. Do you think they're going to just pass me through if they see that I was a professional gambler? |

You've got serious problems when it comes to feeling entitled. [/ QUOTE ] Maybe so, but I actually do this job. I don't just post on webboards about how I think I know what doing the job is like. |

Re: Got stiffed on a tip tonight
For me, tipping is all about refills. If you leave me with an empty glass of beer or coke for a long time, youre not likely to get a good tip from me. Maybe you didnt bring them another Budweiser quick enough, or perhaps they were pissed off that Applebee's didnt have PBR on tap.

Re: you\'re whacked

[ QUOTE ] You're not entitled to a tip just because you're a server. [/ QUOTE ] Then why does the federal government allow restaurants to pay their waitstaff $2.13/hr? Because I'm classified as a tipped employee. In this state, that's $3.02 below minimum wage for non-tipped employees. If I didn't expect to make any tips "just because I'm a server," my restaurant would pay me much more per hour. [/ QUOTE ] dude, the gov't CANNOT TAX YOU ON INCOME YOU HAVEN'T EARNED. so stop crying! MOST people leave a decent tip, right?? So stop crying about the 1% who don't. You're seriously delusional if you think I'm going to help pay your bills just 'cause you'd CHOSEN to wait tables at a crap establishment like Applebys. |

Re: Got stiffed on a tip tonight
Anyone with an IQ over 100 (which is about 40% of OOT) isn't going to sympathize with someone who chooses to work for $2.13/hr and then complains about tips - no matter how many paper degrees you have.

server vs. waiter
What's the difference between a server and a waiter? Are they synonymous? Does it depend on the restaurant? Do they have slightly different duties?

[/ QUOTE ] Let's just put it this way: I make less than $100 every two weeks on paychecks. And that's working 40-45 hours per week. My paychecks really don't mean a whole lot to me, since the vast majority of my income comes from tips. That is why I (and every other server on this board) complain, or have complained, about tips. |
