Actually I return to a place because a waiter/clerk/agent has done his main job IMO-he has made me want to return.
I am not out to be liked by those whom I pay to wait on me.
Again-if service is above average the server gets a little more.
I am also one who stiffs if the service is poor/rude
People who are not meant to be in the service buisness should not be encouraged.
And why should someone who orders something expensive-but takes the same amount of work as a lesser priced item be robbed at gunpoint?This whole percentage thing is just a guide-not a rule.
