[QUOTE=dabigdawg;20079659]I'll be honest.. i don't understand tipping. Why are we SUPPOSED to tip? And why only at sit down restaurants?/QUOTE]

Tipping grew up as positive reinforcement for the effort put in to give good service. It is far more pleasant and less confrontation to reward good service than it is to verbally berate someone for bad service.
