Because you've been evaluated as someone likely to leave a poor tip so there's no point in spending any more time on you, just pay your bill and the measly 15% and GTFO. It's better to go talk to the older couple next to you about the weather as they always leave 25%.

Once you pay you're supposed to leave. It's bad form for a host to suggest you should leave.

Once the bill is presented you're supposed to pay. It's bad form for a host to look at the contents of your wallet. Poor people are just as welcome and as equal as regular customers or rich people.

This is a real story.

Yesterday I went to Cheesecake Factory with my wife.
We used $50 of gift cards on a $48 order.

Obviously this does not leave enough money for an $8.88 tip.

So I put my debit card in with the gift cards so they could use that for the eventual tip.

She comes back and drops off the receipt. So I write the $8.88 tip on there but how is that even going to get charged?

I have to ask for the manager to charge me $0.01 so I can leave a tip. The waitress was pissed off the ENTIRE time. The entire "check" system at restaurants is broken as fuck. It needs a TOTAL refurbishment. Fuck the payment system at restaurants. It's outdated to hell.

I understand the situation, especially with the declining birth rates and I am sorry that society failed you.

However, having a wife does not mean "free sex on demand". To maintain this relationship I have to pay for our house and various household "necessities" that she desires. If it were just me I would be a millionaire by now. But women make you conform to societal standards.

I feel for you. Men should have access to sex if they are even moderately sociable. And that has disappeared in the last 20 years. Relationships are fucked.

The only advice i can give, I met my wife at McDonalds (where we both worked). I also got a bachelor's degree eventually and I work hard to keep up with her lifestyle. We had a child which is a huge commitment, though I recommend everyone jump into feet first.

Sex is important and I understand your pain. But it is not the end-all-be-all of existence. Women need to change to fix this, but men also need to be stronger.

Best of luck.

You know the crazy thing about tipping is like it isn’t even how they get their full wage, it isn’t legal to pay them less than minimum and if they don’t make at least minimum in tips it is illegal not to make up the difference and thus paying waitstaff below minimum barely happens anymore. There is no reason why they cannot just work their shit job which is actually loads easier than most shit jobs. What you are tipping for has gone from getting better service to being coerced into buying passable service and it is toxic as fuck. Fuck waitstaff and anyone who expects tips.

I still find it depends. Delivery drivers? (No, not doordash and uber-eats) They almost always are quicker when they get a good tip, their incentive to be hasty is that tip. The retards who have their food taken leisurely or get taken on some multi-order as the last delivery are almost always shit tippers, and then they use that bad service as justification for not tipping anyways. You get what you pay for, depending on the sector.

I mean, this is the real answer. If the server thinks you're going to leave a good tip, they're going to spend the time schmoozing you and thanking you for your visit and inquiring about your plans for the rest of the night.

If they know you're an autistic megaretard (which you are, OP) who is going to leave some gay, autistic tip like $5.87 (so it's an even amount! YAY!), then it's not worth doing more than the minimum, because are you ever, ever going to leave more than exactly 20%?

hey there! i'm a delivery driver for uber eats and i only do single pickup deliveries and will decline second and third delivery requests because i know that nobody (myself included) likes seeing their hot food taking detours. i want my hot food delivered from kitchen to door so that's what i do for my customers and that's why i get more tips on average and have maintained a 100% rating for about two years now.

i don't expect tips. but when i break every speed limit to get someone's hot food to them while it's still hot then i'm disappointed when i'm not tipped. but most people do tip and australia doesn't have a tipping culture like america has. it's extremely optional here so every tip is extremely welcome because it feels more like a pat on the back for a job well done. it's recognition and reward for effort put in and that's why tips are important.

Idk why this misconception still exists. Waiters make AT LEAST minimum wage after tips BY LAW. The employer makes up anything below min wage that tips do not cover-- the problem is restaurants want to be cheap as fuck and that leads to the tip entitlement. However, with the shortage of waiters after the coof BS I don't know of a single position that pays anywhere near minimum wage, in fact most are a good bit above it given the job qualification requirements.

Yes, in Europe, waiters don't bother you every 5 fucking minutes and instead, should you need anything after being served your meal, you either hail them or walk up to the counter to pay. Takes 5 seconds and you're guaranteed the ability to enjoy your meal in peace. I know walking is hard for americans so I don't judge you, but do understand that here, we don't consider customers as fragile, senile retards.

When I go in to work tonight, I'm going to feel smug as fuck knowing how butt hurt you guys are while I'm getting high and making shitloads of money in tips.
When they ask me to pool our money together for the other staff, I only supply half of what I brought in for the night, that way I can keep the vast majority of my tips.

You must not be American
When the bill is served the American couple perform a mating dance not different from the ones many birds do
The male must asses his chances of reproduction while the female has to judge how good his genes are to pass down to her children
Will he tip?
How much will he tip?
Is he also planning to purchase dessert? (Desserts in America are big and colorful like birds feathers, they don't really taste like anything beyond sugar but they aren't meant to)
It's not always the best strategy for the male to leave a big tip and buy dessert as the female may still decline worsening his chances with another female by depleting his money

Someone should come up with something like a dessert filled with uncooked quick oats, so the customer will feel full after eating the tiny portions that came with the meal. As a bonus, oats are cheap.
Just stuff them into a pie or some cake.
Or... give them a free bowl of oatmeal after the meal.
