I will do this with a new server sometimes too!! I remember someone did that for me... like one of my first tables was an 8 top and I don't know how the manager thought that was a good idea. One couple at the table gave me a $15 tip just themselves. Their individual bill was like $30. It was very generous.
And when I can tell the server is having a bad day but putting in a strong effort to get through, I tip well.
One day at work I got news that my aunt with cancer had began her serious decline, with probably only a few days left. I dropped a tray of empty cups & I flipped a slice of these guys (my age and cute) pizza (scalding hot) onto my arm. It was embarrassing. They left me a $20 tip & they only ordered two pizzas.
It melted my heart that they were caring enough to try and make my day better, because by no means did I even come close to doing well with their table.
