I cannot recall that ever happening to me.

Although I do think 20% is the new 15% unless you have sub par service.

I am not above leaving two pennies on the table to send the secret shitty service message. I have a waiter friend who bitched about a cheap tipper only giving him two cents and I had to inform him that he is a fucking dumb ass.

Except for larger parties, I *hate* when the tip is included. I do not think they should include an automatic tip for anything less than 6 diners. Then, if they do decide to insult me with that shit, unless it was excellent service, I WILL NOT go over whatever they include on my check. It is MY job to determine what the tip is.

Now, since I tip 20% standard unless proving a point, if anybody got 15% from me and said something about it, I'd tell them that 20% is my standard tip so they need to analyze their service.

One big pet peeve for me ... never let my drink glass go empty. Do it once and I see that you're busy ... cool ... do it twice and you've fucked yourself.
