This married former A list franchise mostly movie actor stiffed a waitress with no tip on a $2500 tab. She wouldn't sleep with him and he took it personally.
Kind of a dick move. Wait staff in the US rely on tips to earn a living. If the table wasn't a large group, they may have not added the gratuity automatically. That said, when I've worked in upscale eatery's & country club, that 18% gratuity was almost always added. If the customer really liked your service or you, they dropped an additional cash tip in when signing for the bill.
Really a low class move. Like shagging in a bathroom stall. Leave a nice tip and hit on her later. Don't treat a low-waged, tip-dependent woman like a whore.
I don't believe this blind. I have a feeling that the waiter didn't get the tip she thought she would so is now spreading rumors. 18% on a $2500 receipt is A LOT of money. That's $450. If she got 20% that is $500. I doubt there are many high end restaurants where waiters can expect that sort of tip per table night after night. She's lucky. If the gratuity wasn't automatically added either the guy is being a jerk or the waitress was in attentive and didn't deserve much, if anything at all.
Flirty chick obviously you don't know the restaurant business too well. Plenty of competent and professional servers get stiffed sooner or later from random assholes.
We are not allowed to add tip on anymore and it sucks. I'm a great server , but get stiffed all the time. Get a lot of foreigners and not being mean, but half don't tip. I have to tip out and pay taxes whether they tip or not. So some tables I'm paying to wait on.
Yeah, what Vegas said. A server's sales are reported to the IRS and you are taxed on a percentage. It's to keep servers from saying "Oh, I only made two dollars in tips today" when they made $200. Except... you could get stuck in the wrong place and even the best server ever can end up losing money.

ReplyDeletealan, That's who I was thinking too. But, I'm usually wrong. :(
DeleteI thought so too. However, some people give more than the 18% gratuity.
