defend yourself
i am a waiter. i wait tables and i do it very well (just ask me). my question is why do southerners and canadians tip so cheaply? i f you are southern or canadian i'd love to hear you defend yourself. i just don't get it. normally people tip quite well, but southerners and canadians ALWAYS tip like crap. even if i've got a good repoir going. i'm not shitting on these folks. southerners and candians are very nice people, they just don't tip for shit. if anyone can give me an explanation i'd love it.

makes u wonder especially if they can afford the food then why cant they tip well?
sorry i cant give an answer, but i did read on AIM once that supposedly waiters/watiresses who repeated back the orders got more money. psychological type shit, they feel as though ur really listening to them.... and its rapport. :) (i think?????? i had to learn that shit for some telemarketing job UGH but that shit proved to be helpful in life actually..)

i used to be a waitress in pizzeria/italian restaurant and its not really the southerners or canadians...ITS MORE OR LESS DOCTORS, DENTISTS, any phd or doctorit practitioner tip shitily...i dunno why but they do.
in fact one dentist who came in every wed. for lunch during this summer (i was the only one on during the day) always tipped me 10, 20, then he upped it to 45 cents...when i usually make 20- 30 bux tips a day..this bastard tiped all the girls in change below a dollar...like we were beneath him. BASTARD SONOFABITCH!

which is exactly why i want to be a bartender... TIPS! just hafto be a chick and wear slightly scandalous clothes and the bastards are hooked! WOOHOOO. sucks though cuz there be some ugly ones too
when your talking small tips what do you mean exactly? less than 15%??? im wondering if its regional, since we all seem to be in diff places. the friends ive known who got tips would easily make $100-$200 a shift in tips alone. these were in cheaper restaurants too, like $10 entrees.

I'm a southerner and I take offense to that.....I tip well everytime I eat out, usually more than I should, unless the waiter/waitress is a total fucking moron, then hell yeah I don't tip them as much....I think your generalisation is fucking crap though...because I'm sure there are just as many northerners or westerners that do the same damn thing..

Well...I'm in Northern Kentucky, and everyone that I know tips at least 20%...It's sort of a general rule of thumb around here...I just figured it was that way everywhere:confused:
