    what about bartenders? do we feel as though we should or shouldn't tip them? and why or why not? that question is for everyone.

    I've always wanted to do this:

    At the beginning of a meal, lay $50 down on the table and say to the waitress/er "If you do the best possible job someone could do, you will get all of this. But for every little screw-up, I will be taking money off the table."

    From an incentive standpoint, you would get the best possible service, no?

    If their reward was visual and evident (and achievable) you would not have to worry about poor service.

    I hear what you're saying. It's not always easy to put your best face forward when you're stressed from four tables of people all wanting different things at the same time, the cooks not getting your food out on time, or just about any other thing that can go wron in a resturaunt. Like I was saying, waiting tables is one of the hardest jobs I've ever had. It is a very stressful work enviroment and that can take a toll on some servers.

    And lets not forget that some of these servers are only 18 years old. They may not know how to handle that type of an enviroment just yet, so it brings them down or causes them to not to work well. I've seen it before. Some people are just not cut out to wait tables, but they still need a job.

    I did everything I could to give 110%, but there were days that I just couldn't help it and I know I didn't give the best service.

    I've never been a server but from what I've been told by my friends that worked at restaurants the way they get tipped is pretty random. Some people are just good tippers and some people are bad tippers no matter what you do as a server. They said they've busted their ass and has the patron act really friendly the whole meal then leave like $5 on a $60 check. With other people they don't do anything special and get $15 on the same $60 check. What my friends complained about the most is when a family would go out to dinner and have a $100 check and leave less than a $10 tip.

    One person I know got fired b/c they busted their ass for a family and it was a $96 check and the family left an even $100. So she wrote a note saying "Servers live off our tips. If you don't have enough money to leave a decent tip then you don't have enough money to go out to dinner." and she put the note in their to go bag. The family called back the next day and got her fired.

    What's an EZ pass? I haven't had much experience with tolls, but those people are not providing a service that I personally required them to do. If you read my last post, you will see that I included that statement.

    A server has to earn their tip. One should especially be held to a higher standard at a nicer restaurant. I took my dad to a nice place for dinner for Father's Day and the waitress completely botched our order AND gave us the wrong check the first time around. If you can't do the basics of your job or you make for a pretty shitty eating experience, don't expect a tip.

    That said, if a server goes above and beyond, they can usually expect a tip in excess of 30% (from me at least).

    That's the thing right there. If you can't afford to be courtious, then don't go to a place where gratuity is the norm.

    What people tend to forget is if I don't use that 15% to tip, I'll use it to buy some other product pretty quick down the road. The money's being reinvested into the economy and going to someone who needs money anyhow. The only difference is how much product I'm getting for it.

    In theory this would work, but if you have a server with 6 tables (I have never worked as a server, so I don't know if that's a lot of tables) and every table did the same thing, your "best possible" service would decrease based on the number of tables. Let's say the best possible service is if you are the only table that has "pre-tipped". That service would be a 10. Lets say there are two tables that "pre-tip", now by theory your best possible service would be cut in half, and so on for each additional table. So, yes, in theory if you are the only "pre-tipping" table this would work. Otherwise you are just back to status quo.

    If I go to a bar, request a drink and I get it, I tip the bartender. If I'm at a table, order a drink from the waitress/waiter and she/he brings it to me, I tip that person.

    Really? Let's say you needed to go over a bridge, you don't need someone to operate a toll? Or let's say you need to take a subway to get somewhere, you personally require someone to conduct the thing, don't you?

    You can tip those toll booth workers, even if no one else does.

    Let me try and break this down for you since logic doesn't seem to be your strong suit.

    Those people probably make more than 2 bucks an hour since their job isn't EXPECTANT OF PEOPLE TO NOT BE TIGHTWAD MONEY HUNGRY FUCKING DOUCHES AND ACTUALLY PAY FOR THEIR SERVICES RENDERED.

    Tipping at restaurants is "virtually" mandatory in our society. They don't actually put it on your bill unless it's a large party (although even then i think you can refuse to pay the tip). I guess I'd call it "socially mandatory" since you can't get in legal trouble for not leaving one but people will think you are an asshole if you don't. Our society has decided that servers will earn their money from tips. The government doesn't even require them to get paid minimum wage. So it's a pretty dick move not to leave something. If you go out and spend $20 on dinner you really can't afford a $3 tip (15%)? If you can't spare $3 then maybe you shouldn't be spending $20 on dinner.

    The one situation I find awkward is when I order food to go. I've heard they recommend you leave 10% to tip the person who took the order and wrapped up your food. I'm not really sure what is a good number though.

    I can agree with many of the things you said, but on the days you knew you weren't giving it your all, I am sure you didn't expect as much in tips as the days you felt great and gave it everything, right? Also, I agree that it is a very difficult job, just on the basis of having to deal with people from all walks of life. My future father in law owns many restaurants, so I know how hard it is to run a restaurant and that things can go wrong at any time. I don't ever go into a meal expecting "perfect" service, but I do expect the best the server can do. And if someone can not handle what the job entails: high stress, terrible base pay, shitty hours, dealing with assholes on a daily basis, etc. then maybe this isn't the field for them.

    Hell yeah you tip the bartenders, they make you drinks and serve any food you ordered. They light candles if it's too dark, turn up/down tv's, change the stations, have to hear about all your shit. If I'm going to sit there and make you 3 chocolate martini's, you better tip good. I always overpour

    people that tip like shit, even when the service is good are typically low class fucking douchebags...most of whom have never eaten in a high quality restaurant

    I just moved to Philly a month ago from Canada. Of all the times I have driven around here, I've only had to pay a toll once. I'm pretty sure I know what you're talking about, though, but I can't get one because my car is not registered in the US.

    Sitting in a toll booth and taking money is a whole hell of a lot different than running food to a table and managing multiple customers and food/drink/etc. it's more of a time commitment, more effort, and more service. Running a toll booth is like being a cashier, and I'm sure you don't tip the cashier at CVS when you buy your AZT medicine.

    thats a poor reason for why we should tip bartenders...doctors, save lives, run around, dont sleep, etc etc....

    we should tip these people because their salary is dependent upon our doing so...they typically make less than minimum wage because tips are expected.
