What would you...

#10. You're at an expensive restaurant for the first time and the food is less than stellar, but your waitress is great. She is there for you for whatever you need. After dinner the bill comes, and you get to the tip line, what would you do?
 
Tip her but tell her the food wasn't that good but the service was great. :cattail:

Leave her 20% of whatever the bill was. Tip is for the service received not the food served.

I worked as a waiter one summer in a hotel where the kitchen was a disgusting dive and the chef on autopilot as he had been for ten years. I tell you, I was sure glad that most of my customers saw it as you say, and I got my lolly direct from them as well as my pittance of wages.

The Royal Squadron is was called. Oh so veneer.

Absolutely tip for the service. Many years ago I worked as both a waiter and a bartender, but even if I hadn't, I will always reward the service. If there was a line for a tip for the chef, leave it blank or draw something unflatteroing.

Tip well.

Tips are for service.

Then wonder briefly how I got into a nice restaurant in the first place and never go back.

Tip at least 20% and if I really felt it warranted the attention of the establishment, I'd ask to speak to a manager (That or leave s passive agressive scathing Yelp review).

On the other hand, an exceptional server will check in to make sure the food is to your liking. That's your chance to speak up or forever hold your peace.

If i'm getting good service from the wait staff, then I'll tip them well.
 
Tip what you want. Don't be a slave to convention. If the food is bad, don't go back.

Tell her food sucked but pay the tip. Karma comes around. 😁

I pretty much tip 20%. Note period at end of sentence.

I've stopped thinking of it as something that rates either service or the restaurant. A lot of studies have shown that it really doesn't.
Waitstaff work hard. They deserve reasonable pay. 15-20% gets them to crappy pay....

#9. What would you do if your boss came on to you?

When I had a boss, I'd probably laugh....it would never happen

I would still tip 20%, hubby 25%
I was a waitress throughout university so my tip is solely based on service. Even the worst server I'd give 10%

#11. What would you do if you woke up and realized you had nothing planned all day?

It's likely I'd go back to sleep. I've been working my tail off and would love a sleep in.

Eventually I'd figure out food and probably do a load of laundry.
