Given that a reduction in tip is a rational response to waitstaff error, I think it's on topic.

Why is a waiter not apologizing any different from any other service person failing to apologize for an error? You can either get offended or move on. Moving on is healthier IMO and IME. Getting offended is of no use whatever.

(You shouldn't assume from this that I never get offended ... )
