The waitress knows before she starts working that she is only paid a certain amount if she wants more then she should work somewhere else. I do NOT tip! When I worked I didnt get tips for what I did and would never have expected it! I don't care how it makes me look. I know plenty of people who get paid $7 or so an hour and then get tips on top of that so not everyone is paid $3 an hour and then relys on the rest for tips so you shouldnt feel so bad for these waitresses. Also I know a lot of waitresses who make like $100 on tips plus what they make an hour and that is a lot more then my husband makes working at his job. I do not feel bad for waitresses and feel the need to tip them because by god they are making off tips more then my family does as well as they know what they are getting into in the first place. It just annoys the heck out of me.

I do that very time. When I was a college student, I worked in a restaurant as a waitress who lived on the tips on weekend to make tuition. I know how tips means to the waiter. I give tips according to how much my bills are. Usually it is between 10% to 15%.
