I have never worked in the food industries but have many friends and people I know that do. One thing I always hear about is about how people have tiped them. It does not matter if is good or bad. It used to be that a good tip or the ettique was 15% but now it is 20%.

We tip based on service. If the server was good and came around a lot you should absoultely give them twenty perecent. Everyone says no matter what that is what you should give, even with bad service. They say that because servers have to pay bartenders, cooks, bus boys, hostess and more. So others are depending on the money just as well. As well in some states require that they pay taxes on 15% or more of total food sales.

I usually give 20% plus, I haven’t had a bad expierence like other people. But I can see instances for bad tipping. If the server is not paying attention to you enough, ingoring you, attitude and others. If it is really bad I suggest tipping less. Real less to show them that you are paying attention and doing it on purpose.

But there are some things that the servers can not control and should not be punished for. If the food is taking long, it does not mean that it is the servers fault. It could be that the kitchen is buzy, or it is the cooks fault, or they had to get something defrosted and etc. Or if they are not coming enough to the table but they may be really busy. They might had a problem at another table.

I do not support paying less than 20 percent or tipping poor. But if the server is being really rude, or not coming to your table and you can see them goofing around with others, or something just extreme than you should. It should only be extreme circumstances.

Servers have bad days, they are real people and have thing going on in their life. It could be a bad day, you can not always clear your mind. But if they give a good effort they deserve 20% or more. And if they are great you should give them more. Remember they make less than $3 an hour, they earn their money on tips.
