    Joe,

    Well, since I'll not be there again and you will... :)

    It has been rare that I had bad service at Golden Corral.

    My weekly kaffee klatsch are known to be big tippers. Once in a while
    someone will buy for everyone and the rest will leave a tip equal to what JM>their coffee, etc would be. We have waitresses fight over who will serve JM>us. :)

    I can imagine so.

    When everyone was leaving he would "remember" something he forgot, on
    purpose, and go back for it. It was found out he was pocketing the tips.
    After that someone always went with him and soon he remembered
    everything when he left the table. :)

    He probably had no qualms about doing it.

    On the rare occasions I have something delivered and order on line I
    never put down anything for a tip but give the driver the cash. If a tip JM>is given on line its taxed, if just handed to them its not.

    Some restaurants have a "communal tip jar"...or all the tips go into
    one big pool. This way, all employees get the same "tip amount", whether
    they work to earn it, or "drag their butts".

    And I imagine some employees figure why should they do extra when they
    will get the same percentage of the tips. ==sigh==

    I've wondered the same thing. It's as bad as folks wanting $15 an
    hour.
