Why should I tip a server?
I have been doing this for about five years and I am just now starting to really feel comfortable in to it. Seriously things that go behind scene are. There are times when you have eight tables. There are most of us who are working really hard.
What was your best or worst tip?
I have actually gotten two hundred dollar tips. This one time I got a hundred dollar tip from this couple. We had a really nice like rapport and they were professional dancers and I was like, "I love dancing" and they were like, "We know J-Lo." And I was like, "Oh, my God!" And then I had someone who was a restaurant owner and we just got to talking and he tipped me a hundred dollars....The worst is when you have someone that you are talking with and that you are friendly with and you feel like you are giving them really good service and then they tip you 10%. We're taking care of you so take care of us, you know?
