This type of **** pisses me off. People that expect tips. Tips are AKA gratuity. Which means, I leave something if the person goes beyond what I expect for the service. For me, I am not grateful when you simply do your job. It's your freakin job already. You get paid to do it from the start! Now...if you go above and beyond what you are supposed to do and give me great service that I didn't expect. Then, I will be grateful and leave gratuity. But don't expect it and get pissed when I don't leave it. If you don't like the job and don't like what you are getting paid, then find a job elsewhere. There are plenty of jobs out there. Find one that pays better and quit expecting me to carry you in life.
Now, I must say, I do not agree that wait staff at restaurants can get paid less than minimum wage. They should not expect the customer to have to make up for cheap owners. This I think is crazy. But I know the wait staff cannot do anything about it and almost always tip wait staff. But everyone else like delivery people (which I almost never use), bag handlers (which I almost never use), garbage men, mailman, milkman, UPS guy, neighbor, wife, etc...they don't get tips. Well, maybe the wife...or neighbor's wife. :th_eyebrows:
