Tips = to insure professional service.   1 hour wait time is no insuring professional service.
They failed to serve. The diner failed to tip.

Seems fair

Tipped staff make minimum wage. They like to pretend the FLSA isn't a thing when looking for sympathy, as in the article.

Next they'll claim that many restaurants ignore the FLSA. This is true, but of course a person can file a complaint with the DOL and get damages (which can eventually lead to a company being told they can't utilize the tip credit). Of course, to open a complaint the DOL is going to want to see proof and documentation. Which requires you to keep documentation. Which will often with tipped staff show that what you really made in tips is different than what you told the IRS.

Whats with people taking their shit tips to the media lately?

Do you comprehend that base pay for a waiter is only $2-3/hr so you can have your $15 steak dinner?

This is so the staff will pay attention to you and care about the service they provide.




Or




Would you rather pay $30-40 for your dinner and have the staff care about as much as the McD's cashier?

Three sides to every story, we've read one of those sides.

Maybe these people waited an hour for their food because she forgot to put it in, maybe the kitchen was really busy.  Maybe she put in the order wrong, or maybe she was a stuck up bitch.  Who knows.

As a former server, I've seen it all regarding good tips, bad tips, an no tips.  In my experience 90% of your tips reflect not only the service of the restaurant but your ability to read and accommodate the client.  Sure you'll get the occasional cheap ass, but those are typically balanced out with the overly generous.  Most people will give 15-20% if you can keep their drink filled, and service prompt.

She has control of where she works - if she is constantly being screwed out of tips by a crappy kitchen staff then she should get a waitressing job somewhere else. If it only happened this once then there really was no reason to complain about it publicly - she certainly doesn't rely on just that one tables bad tip due to their bad experience to pay her way through college.

If it happens a lot and the kitchen staff really isn't bad then it's really her and she isn't telling the full story.

I explained my position a little better in subsequent posts.  Ultimately though, if the manager didn't give the meal for free/deeply discounted, I wouldn't leave a tip, because I wouldn't pay full price + tip for 1hr+ wait.

I'd still tip the server myself but I understand.  She's the customer's advocate with the kitchen and the management.  She benefits when the kitchen serves out a killer meal with a quickness just as she sinks when they fall on their face.  She should be taking this up with her boss, not taking it out on the customer on social media.

Bad kitchen service isn't the waitress' fault.  Complain to the restaurant manager, not the waitress.


Options besides screwing the waitress over are:

-  Complain to the manager
- Leave. (tip for drinks.)
- Wait.




Unfortunately, it seems to happen with me a lot. Especially at conventions and the like. This past year at the mid America Truck Show we went to Eddie Merlot's, took 3 hours from seating, to the bill. We got a 25% discount because they forgot to staff up for the truck show.

However, when I went to dinner with my Lansing Michigan division once, the waitress:
A. Forgot about us. (No drinks / etc. for over 30 minutes.)
B. Messed up all our orders.
C. Forgot about us again.

For 8 people, she got a shitty tip.  As, it was her fault. And, we will not be back to that restaurant.

Bitching about customers is a sure way to get more tips.  I can understand tipping at a place where they pretty much run back and forth but even the country buffet style places are bitching about tips. How hard is it to carry around a pitcher of coke and bring a ticket out.

They do make a static wage, and a minimum wage.  They are not underpaid.

The tip system exists so that servers, if they're good, can make more than minimum wage without impacting the very tight bottom line of the restaurant industry.

And many servers I know, especially in DC, do not want what you call for as (1)it'll heavily reduce their income (a bartender in Georgetown on a good Saturday can make bank) and (2)it decreases the amount of tax fraud they can engage in.

A. Luckily don't have a daughter.

B. If I did, I would hope I would have raised her well enough not to cry in public over being stiffed on a tip...

Sorry, but if she is classless enough to bitch and moan in public about not getting a tip, then I don't have much respect for her. She probably is a Bernie Sanders supporter....

I typically base it on quality of the waitstaff. Some things are beyond their control, and everyone knows that. How they handle it can make a huge difference.

Waitress usually tip out.  That means a greeter and the cooks get a portion of the tips.  Not leaving a tip made the point if the kitchen staff had their heads up their ass.

I usually speak with a manager if service is lacking.  Not leaving a tip won't fix the problem, but management must be aware if you want appropriate changes made.

Publicly bitching about it is just lack of maturity.

His restaurant closed before the DOL made changes to how mandatory service charges were treated under the FLSA. It used to be, under the law, that the mandatory service charge was considered a "tip" legally. The DOL in 2014 decided that, nope, since the customer had no say that it didn't count as a tip but as part of the employer's gross receipts.

Why should the customer have to ask for the manager to complain?

Wait staff is part of a team right? She seen it was taking WAY too long, why didn't she get the manager involved early? Get him to offer up some free pie or something?

She knows her tips are effected by this doesn't she?


Why didn't the manager come out on his own to fix the problems? They are the team leader right?

Waitress usually tip out.  That means a greeter and the cooks get a portion of the tips.  Not leaving a tip made the point if the kitchen staff had their heads up their ass.


Cooks are legally not allowed to be a part of any tip pool.

Tip Pool: The requirement that an employee must retain all tips does not preclude a valid tip pooling or sharing arrangement among employees who customarily and regularly receive tips, such as waiters, waitresses, bellhops, counter personnel (who serve customers), bussers, and service bartenders. A valid tip pool may not include employees who do not customarily and regularly received tips, such as dishwashers, cooks, chefs, and janitors.
