Oh, are we supposed to be ashamed of ourselves because you were too fucking cheap to pay your servers a decent wage?

Did I mention tipping is not mandatory? You guys keep ignoring that.

Nothing left eh? Your, "I deserve it so fuck you" argument is no better than mine. The only difference is, you're actually making that argument. I've never once said I don't tip. You probably won't catch the sentence before this one this time either.

You really sound like somebody who's never worked a hard job in his life, and think that because serving is frustrating it's up there with jobs that require real physical effort and danger. It's not, you take an order, deliver it to the kitchen then when it's cooked carry it back. During that time, you might come by and check on my drink. If that's hard, then can you imagine what kind of tip somebody who breaks a sweat should get?

Again, spoken like someone who's never worked at a nice restaurant at a busy period. You don't think any of those people don't sweat? Yeah right.

And yeah, your job could be hard and dangerous (whoopdie-do, that's your choice), but do you have to always maintain control of your attitude at the same time? Do you have to play politics with both the guests and fellow employees? Do you have to multi-task, not just "work hard" on one thing at a time? Do you have to think on your feet to respond to what the guests asks? Do you have to have the type of personality that enables waiters to get big tips?

I never said being a waiter is brain surgery, but it isn't McDonald's either.

Give it up dude, this part of your argument isn't working.

OK, let's say he gave everyone the same wage, like $20/hr. Where is the incentive for them to give top-notch service anymore?

Being fired from a 20/hr job sounds like good incentive to me.

Homeslice, gtfo, im not going to pretend to agree that servers have it hard. They take orders and serve fucking food. They run around in a clean environment, most times, fucking up even the simplest of tasks.

Dont ever put 'hard work' and 'serving food' in the same sentence and expect the general public to take you serious. Like Tmall said, you probably never had a hard job in your life, so its easy for you to pretend theres something special about it..

Come up here. We'll get you a chainsaw, and throw you in the woods cutting pulp for 7$ a chord for a jobber in the sweltering heat of summer. Then do two things. 1. Tell me whats harder. 2. Go ask your boss for a tip..

Really. So, you're the owner there, how are you gonna tell if a waiter gives top-notch service to a table, rather than just OK service? You're busy with your own shit, you're not hovering behind the back of each of your waiters watching everything they do.
