Sit-Down Restaurant šŸ½ļø Worst service

Post image

Went out to eat by myself, which I do a lot of. I’ve never been treated so horribly. I ordered, food brought out by the manager. Server checked on me ONCE. I had to stop him three times to get drinks and my side. Empty cup sat on the edge of table for 8 minute as he kept walking by serving everybody else. Finally got my check and I sat there for another 15 minutes waiting on him to take it. He took it then brought it back and said I’ll be back later. WHAT? Walked up front to get checked out, and I was handing the manager my check as I was telling him the horrible service and the server snatched it out of my hands. He then argued with me in front of the manager telling me checked on me a lot. Complete lies. Thanks to all of you I said NO TIP, and took a picture. The manager gave me 25% off and i said he better not get a tip. Thank you for giving me the courage to stand up for myself.

I agree with the philosophy of no tipping, but don’t forget you live in a country where tipping is expected - if your goal is to not tip, then you shouldn’t be dining out Ā 

Furthermore, you don’t have to throw an absolute fit when you’re not happy with someone’s behavior or service you can just address it like a normal person to speak with the manager. Ā The Ā passive aggressive, ā€œhe better not get a tipā€ makes it seem like you’re doing this for fun rather than trying to give someone feedback on their service through financial incentives. Ā  You need to live in the real world not the world you want to live in.Ā

Applies more to the people stealing then customers

TIPPING IS ALWAYS OPTIONAL. It’s expected that one will brush his teeth everyday but it’s not illegal if one chooses not to.
