Sorry, but you're wrong; tips are an expected part of eating at a restaurant, and that is why waitrons are paid less than minimum wage, and are taxed by the government as if they received tips that were adequate compared to their total food sales. In fact, there are times that some waitrons open their paychecks and find that they OWE money, because their sales were high compared to their hours; though the checks reflect only the hours worked, the taxes reflect what they should have been paid if they were tipped the expected amount.

So if you undertip, you steal from the wait staff, a staff that makes less than minimum wage, remember. So don't be shocked when the waitrons give better service to the people who give better tips. And don't be surprised that they remember who the good tippers and bad tippers are.
