I don't go out unless I can tip well. I'm usually no less than 25%.

Asante said: Holland does not have a culture where servers are treated like second class citizens such as is the case in the US, a leftover from your troubled racial history.
Servers here straight up get decent salaries that can sustain their household even in the absence of tips, their salary and benefits and paid leave when they get sick is included in the price you pay.
Tipping here is pure generosity, not a way to prop up underpaid benefitless servers.
I tip mediocre for mediocre service and exceptional for exceptional server.
If I were a server, I would be respectfully, elegantly submissive to the customer's enjoyment of the restaurant experience, being the ambassador, the liaison, between the restaurant and myself.
This is a far cry to what is often the case with servers in Holland. The Dutch are generally assertive and direct, if not rude, and many servers are too.
You don't have through roll through the mud for me, but certainly don't be arrogant, passive-aggressive or impatient with my reasonable pace of the process, or you'll get coal in your stocking this christmas 
The ones that do an impeccable job, often in exotic restaurants is my observation, where the owner insists on polite service of his staff, I tip very generously, in part fueled by the times I had to tip mediocre.
Most of the people I know that make great money are servers or bartenders. My buddy made well over 250 a night waiting tables at a Mexican restaurant.
Heck one of the people I know that makes the most money is a jimmy johns delivery driver. She paid off her student loans, got a home and paid cash for a brand new car by the time she was 25
Pizza hut delivery driver is a quick way to 25/hr or more in most cities

At one of my old jobs we used to grab lunch frequently at the restaurant next door. The first couple of times were great, but after that the wait staff was always horrible to us, we eventually had to stop going because the food would take like an hour to come out, itād be cold and we wouldnāt get back to work in time.
My buddy ran into one of the servers later on and she asked him what our problem was, asking why we never left a tip. After we connected the dots it turned out that one of the pieces of shit we worked with mustāve been pocketing the tip that we all left behind, he would always be struggling to find cash in his wallet or something and heād be the last one with the check. I felt so bad, it was hundreds of dollars worth of tips that the servers lost out on, Iām surprised they let us back in at all and a server or even a manager never said anything. Who knows how much spit and other extra āseasoningā ended up in our food

I was at a shithole diner once and this table full of cunts said they wouldn't tip no white bitch. The restaurant had a policy of paying after you order before you get your food at any time because of the neighborhood it is in. They complained about having to pre pay and the manager came and told them it was just policy. So they paid but told the manager they wouldn't be tipping no white bitch. But he crumbled like a deck of cards and went and hid out the rest of the time. Poor waitress had to deal with them.
My forklift driver told me he never tips and never will. I said well that's kind of a piece of shit thing to do and he just said you ain't me. Lol

if you could coordinate everyone in the country to do this, they would be forced to pay their servers more cause no one would work for free

I don't eat out because I don't believe in tipping. I'm not saying that I don't think they deserve their tips, they surely do. I just think their employers should pay them enough money to where they don't need to get tips. Why should customers have to supplement a restaurant employees pay check because the employer doesn't want to pay them a living wage? )
