Rather pay more for my meal, then tip. Not all servers deserve tips, but we do it because if not we know they didn't make fluff for the hr we were there
I think the tipping industry is the best thing for restauranteurs. If you don't deserve a tip, then fluffing give customer service and the best damb waiting experience and your customers will WANT to tip you. The ratio of fluffhead stingy customers who don't tip you, won't be near the sheer amount you will earn from customers who appreciate being waited, being actually SERVED.
Too often people these day's, don't want to work hard, and just expect everything for NOTHING. They think they deserve $20 an hour and the fact is they'd still have a bad attitude.
Anyone can be successful in this day and age you just gotta have the right attitude, be passionate about something and actually be prepared to fluffing WORK harder then the next guy and you'll get there.
Pisses me off as a business owner, staff constantly wanting better wages. Thats fine. But you gotta be prepared to earn it. People who go to college, do so for a learned skill, career and better pay. If you don't go to college, it means you gotta get experience. Work hard, learn, train in what you are doing. The more you can offer your boss, the more leverage you have for more responsibility. More responsibility then you can ask for more pay.
