I really do find it unfair that waitresses and such only get 2.13 plus tips. I was a hostess at a restaurant so I really got to see what happened. People are cheap assholes. That's it. I hate to be so cynical, but it's true. They run their server all over, run up a $100 tab for 3 people (much of which is bar stuff) and then have the audacity to leave 2 bucks. 2 bucks, for a reference, would be ok if you were dining by yourself at somewhere like applebees, no liquor, no special requests. I say that when in doubt double the tax (if your area charges tax) as a base for the tip. One time, though, a waitress was a total bitch to me and I left her a nickel. That might have been wrong, but so was her attitude. I tip valets, baggage guys, hairdressers, to-go people at decent restaurants (not fast food, although I did once), and restroom attendants, but you don't see those very often. I figure it sucks being in there all day.
