Probably not. Just stiffed the ones waiting on them.
From my years working in casinos...
1. Blacks
2. Old people
3. Blacks
4. Foreigners - Germans and French are the worst. In europe many times the gratuity is included.
5. Blacks
6. People that can't stop telling you they'll tip you when they win.
7. Women that tell you they're purse is outside.
Actually most of the Asians I dealt with did tip.
The problem with most of the ones at Winstar is that they are there every night. A large chunk of them were all together. They feel that it is unlucky to tip so they don't. The ones who didn't ****ociate with that group were about the same as anyone else. You are right though, the people who say they will usually don't. The strange thing is I usually got more tips from people who I took from than the people who I paid like crazy.
Well in Vegas supposedly locals all tip but that's BS too. Cheap **** is cheap ****. Helping people that win ****ure you of zero. Unfortunately you get jaded after a while.
People make less than minimum wage all of the time.
If there is anything dealers are, it is jaded.
Gotta be real, it's on the internet. They can't put anything that's not real on the internet.
If there's anything I've learned about cheap ****es, especially at casinos, if you keep at them, they will eventually crack and tip. I worked in a tipped position for two years and there wasn't a "cheap" regular customer that I didn't make jingle my till more than once.
Back in the day when I was waiting tables I got more than my share of tracts as tips on Sunday afternoons.
In general, though, I loved waiting on large after church groups. They usually tipped out well.
Why do we get upset with people working on Sundays if we're eating out on Sundays? What do they expect?
As you know, I work for a multi-national company. A few years ago I was reporting directly to a guy who lived in Milan. In most of Europe gratuity is automatic regardless of the size of the party, so no one tips.
We had just hired a couple of new people into his group, so he came over to meet with us all in Plano. Four of us went out for dinner at Love & War and ran up a tab around $75 per person. My boss paid the bill. The next day he showed me the receipt and asked me if he had paid it correctly. He didn't leave a tip out of habit, so I made him go back that afternoon and take care of it.
Couldn't agree more. I loved working Sunday mornings. It was annoying getting the flyers in place of tips every once in a while (especially the ones made to look like a $10 bill -**** those), but overall it was the easiest and best shift all week. I worked as a server/bartender for 5 years and I probably worked close to 200 Sunday morning shifts.
The fact of the matter is, if you let one stiff on $35 in sales bother you that much (regardless of context) you're in the wrong industry. Few things are as annoying as listening to18 year old's **** about one bad tip when they're making 20 bucks an hour.

I tip well when I get good service. If my waiter gives me ****ty service, they do not deserve a tip, automatic or otherwise, no matter how much they make. I'm not going to reward somebody who is ****ty at their job or has a ****ty attitude toward the people they are serving.

this story is meh.
But they did pay, that was never in question. they just didn't want to tip.
****hole? yes. big deal? no
Straws.
The bible does say that, doesn't mean that is what is required now.
Sometimes but I can also see why it is in place.
Even if the service is ****ty?
If the service is good, yes
What did the leper tell the prostitute?Spoiler:

Write a note that say's, "Thank you for the 10 bucks to cover my 18 and damages. God Bless."
Now...
Go to his church and when the collection plate comes to you, nab a $10, and drop in the note.
I never understood how restaurants can get away with paying 'their' employees 2-3 bucks an hour, while the customer is supposed to pay them the rest of their pay for simply doing the job they signed up for.
Just the tip is my favorite game.
i don't know if any restaurant actually does it but I think if you don't make minimum wage in total compensation (salary plus tips) then the employer is suppose to make up the difference
No has seemed to notice the total on the bill is $34.93. For a party of 20? With the tip charged in? I can't even get out of a restaurant for 35 bills for a party of 2! What the hell did they order? 3 appetizer samplers for the table and 20 waters with lemon?
Guessing the check was split and that was his share.

It was a divided check, the other 19 people probably included a little extra on top. Just another whiny spoiled little brat that has yet to face any real challenges in life.
The total bill was split b/t the 20
There's a reason I bolded it:
The Reddit user who submitted the image explained in the comments section that the receipt was part of a total bill for a party of 20, which is why the gratuity was automatically added.
Well then is that even a party of 20? Sounds like ten parties of 2 to me
I didn't actually read any of this. I just jumped to my own conclusions, so I could make a smart **** remark. **** TEXAS!

Never seen that happen. When I waited tables we had to report some of our tips at the shifts end for tax purposes. We would of course go with a low number. There wasn't any making up the difference. Whether we were waiting on customers or rolling silverware we got paid the same.
When I got to Vegas I noticed that everyone made minimum wage. I'm sure that was because of the unions in the hotels. There's a chance that server at a restaurant in the Mirage is making 15$/hr with full benefits. Even place outside the hotels were paying better mwages - Dennys, etc. When I got back here and was checking out some bartending jobs I found many paid less than minimum.
I'm just reading this as a bunch of people who have evaded taxes.
If all the waiters would claim their tips and pay taxes there would be no deficit. Thanks for ruining America.
I love working Sunday mornings at work with the church crowd. I always walk out with triple digits and barley do anything.
If this happened to me, I'd be a little upset, but the tab was 34 bucks...oh well
Is "Jingle My Till" code for something?
It sounds like it should be. You know, something extra. Like "keep the change" = swallowing.
At least you get to control how much a server gets rewarded for their work. If restaurants had to pay their employees minimum wage the cost would be passed on to the customer.
if you can't afford to tip your waiter, don't go to a place with waiters.
pretty simple.

Agreed. And if you as a waiter want a tip, be a good waiter.

About 18 years ago, when we were still in high school, an ex of mine and I had a part time jobs at an IHOP in San Antonio, she was a hostess. Pastor John Hagee came in one Sunday and expected his two table party to be sat in front of about 20-30 other customers who had been waiting patiently, some for as long as 20+ minutes. When my ex told him he would have to wait to be seated like the other customers he proceeded to berate her on how he should be treated differently because he was "doing God's work" and had no time to wait on lesser people and "heathens". The manager agreed that he would have to wait and he stormed out berating other employees and customers. The following Sunday on his nationally syndicated sermon show he had an entire segment of his sermon directed at "The Godless hostess" he had encountered at his neighborhood IHOP.
When I was a bell captain at a nice hotel I told John Tesh to **** off, and sold out the counting crows to a bus full of teenagers because they were ****holes.
Turns out being a **** is not limited to pastors.*
*to my knowledge neither of them said anything about me
This sure sounds like a Stu story...
So nobody actually sees a problem with Christians tithing at 10% and then society deeming waitstaff deserve more?
No.
no
One small problem with that. It mentions a girlfriend and not his **** lover. That alone negates it being a stucas.

They give more than either to the government in taxes. That's the real problem.

The two things are not related in any way shape or form.
Tithing is supposed to be your first and best - see Leviticus. 10% of the whole, seed, oxen, etc. And you should give the best of your lot. The first and the best.
18% is based on an expenditure, not an income.
THe fact that anyone is trying to correlate these two is laughable.

When you buy that piece of candy at the gas station do you get mad because they mark it up 100%+?
Sweet!!!!! I love the laws in Leviticus. I believe we should adhere to them without question.

To Insure Prompt Service= tips
so should they be given at the beginning or the end of service as a thank you? this question was brought to my attention by an authentic southern bell who recently relocated to OK.
carry on
