Since I was a cocktail waitress in college, I ALWAYS tip a minimum 20%... if the service STINKS however, I will drop it to 10-15%.
Sure, I had a few cheapskates, but I easily made enough for rent
and partying working 3 happy hours a week and one full night.
If you are good at what you do and work in a trendy establishment, tips should never be a problem. Women were the worst, because a few would remove some of the tip their husbands/dates left. (An exception was this AWFUL guy I once dated.)
Since I've been on both sides, I can read a situation better than those who have never been in the service field. I KNOW when it is the wait person's fault or when the fault lies in the kitchen.
Home delivery-15%.
I too carry my own bags and Hubby parks the car.
