Clearly you haven't had me wait on you . For the record, I'm in the industry and here are my standards:
  • 30%+ if you give me free stuff
  • 25-30% if you gave me exemplary service (great recommendations, particularly knowledgeable about products)
  • 20-25% assuming my drink stayed full and my service was quick enough
  • 18% if you don't know what you're doing but I eventually get my stuff
  • 10% or less if you're rude or incompetent
