      <![CDATA[@ Wolter<br>making below half of minimum wage isn't really defining the employer as a cheap bastard, it's pretty much the defining characteristic of working in a service based restaurant which sounds like you never have. <br><br>@ tippers in general<br>if you can't afford to tip, you generally can't afford to drink and unless you're lining my pockets with gold or something more than that shiny quarter you left on my bar, don't ever ask me to "hook" you up.

      <![CDATA[This is all mostly ridiculous. If the server was slightly below average to slightly above average, I usually tip a buck on a drink, $2 to $5 so thats 50% to 20%, which in all aspects of society should be way more than is acceptable.

      <![CDATA[As the cheapskate food-blogger in question, let me clarify that I actually enjoy tipping and making nice with my server (20% is my rule of thumb, although more when I spend less). What I don't like is the social pressure to measure up to a fluctuating standard based on subjective criteria (really compounded by being an avowedly frugal foodie).
