ha. good point. kinda funny actually.

i also understand the difference between a big party and the demands of that big party vs two people having lunch and situations where it can be expected to add a service charge or gratuity to the bill.

i just don't agree that some waitress in some crappy restaurant is entitled, regardless of her performance, the overall experience and whether she earned it or not.

its fine to argue as forest is that tips are considered part of their wages. but that has nothing to do with the fact that just because most people tip, that tips are an entitlement regardless of quality of service.

to me, bad service deserves nothing... great service deserves a lot... average service deserves something.
