Tipping should be abandoned entirely. If you are on the job - any job, you had better provide good attentive service.
Carrying a plate from the kitchen to the table is not that difficult.
And if your server is slow, surly and eventually gets your order wrong after ignoring you for 30 minutes, he/she should make the same living as the conscientious, cheerful, attentive and reliable server? I do not agree. Those who are good servers prefer to work for tips. Lesser servers do not. Perfectly logical. And, yes, I've done the job.
Its like literally any other business. If you have an employee not fulfilling their end of the bargain then you fire them. Its on the owners to make sure they have good employees, not the customers. If the owner doesn't want as many customers, he's free to keep around the shitty employees.
If a server is slow, surly, and makes mistakes, perhaps the supervisor should recognize the problem and get someone else to do the simple job of moving plates from point A to point B.
No they should be shown the door. Especially when the cooks get that exact treatment. Treat FOH and BOH the same, nobody should get special treatment just because you hear the guest's voice.
Waiters are paid less than normal jobs because tips. So it is in their best interest to be as good as they can to earn a better tip.
I have noticed that some online orders are automatically adding a tip in as well. This is going to come back and bite them.
