Today, I ordered take out, and paid with a credit card. The cute cashier gave me the receipt to sign, and under 'tip' I gave a couple of dollars. I realized that I had given too much, crossed it out, and changed it. Unaware she was watching, She then responded, "Did you just lower the tip by $1?" FML

What does it matter if she saw you do it or not? She would have seen it crossed out in a little bit anyway. It's a weird thing that you would bother to cross it out and lower it by only a dollar, seeing as how a dollar is relatively insignificant in the grand scheme of things, but it's just weird as opposed to horrible. Plus, it was only take out, people don't normally tip on take out at all so if I were her, I'd feel grateful to have even gotten a couple dollars.

I think what he means is that he wants the waiter to make the night good by providing good service and that they should have to work for a big tip and not just expect it

i've been with friends and taken away a dollar before... for example 3.50 out of 16 is a 22% tip. 2.50 out of 16 is a 16% tip. if they donnt deserve it they just don't.

I hope that one dollar that you saved improved your quality of life as much as you apparently thought it would. YDI.

Waiters would definitely be entitled to a tip, while take out really shouldn't warrant as big a tip. But I don't think giving an extra dollar by mistake really warrants changing your mind and crossing it out. #3: You should always tip. Waiters and waitresses get paid very little from the employer. In fact, the minimum wage for servers is around 3 dollars. They make nearly all their money from tips. Not tipping them is basically denying them part of their paycheck.

I agree with 3 actually. But where I live waiters and waitresses get payed decently anyways.
