If my salary was based on commission - YES ... similar to waitstaff's tips being based on performance.
It's not US that don't get it - it's YOU. We are aware that restauranteurs supplement their employee's pay by relying on the kindness of their customers to tip the waitstaff. The thing you aren't getting is that is OPTIONAL not required, and is based on the quality of provided service. If the service isn't up to par, NOT leaving a tip is absolutely our option.
