If the person does a really good job, or if there are a lot of you at a table, then a little more is greatly appreciated.

Here is how to figure out 15%. You take the amount of the bill and move the numbers over one place. This is ten percent. Then take this number and divide it in half, and add that to the first number (10%) and you have 15%.

For example:
Bill= $23.92
10% 2.39
5% 1.20 (I rounded up, you should too)
15%= 3.59.

See, its easy. We remember bad tippers, and the next time you come in, you will end up with a spit sandwich.

I used to be a server but I got out of it because it's just too much aggrevation. Most of the people i remember were just too lazy to give a 15% tip.
