50 people who act like being a waitress is a career, not a failure.

Servers expect minimum 15 percent and 20 percent gratuity is usually the norm. When I was a server, I worked my ass off every night. Anyone who tips less than 15 percent should eat at Burger King imho.


"Servers expect..."

That's exactly what's wrong with "tipping"

I could add to your last sentence and say "anyone who EXPECTS 15% no matter what, should not be working a job that any monkey can do".
