Dear god why has the tipping post virus migrated from Reddit. JFK just don’t tip—it’s okay. I worked as a waiter for 5 years, we literally don’t even pause to think when we get stiffed. Nobody cares.
Bullshit as somebody dating a server a couple groups stiffing her is the difference between if it was worth it to go to work or not.
If you can't tip don't go to a sit down restaurant. The servers there are making less than minimum wage if you don't tip. If the server has to pay for childcare they can literally work all day and lose money if you've decided you're not going to tip
Seriously, if you can't afford to tip your servers at a sit-down restaurant (in places that pay below minimum wage for servers), then you can't afford to eat there. It's not some life hack, you're just being a piece of shit and the only thing you are accomplishing is fucking over your fellow worker. If you don't want to tip, don't eat at places with table service.
