LEAVE A GREAT TIP
Tonight, my husband and I went to Ruth’s Chris and had an amazing dinner, as usual…
Joe, our waiter, suggested a killer Cab, made some modifications to the prix-fixe dessert of peanut-butter-something-or-other (yuck!) and even listened to my boring wine-speak (AHA!…finally some ‘good karma’ from yesterday’s AC incident). Needless to say, Joe got an exceptionally good tip…
When calculating the tip, we begin by figuring out the percentage that correlates with the level of service. And, servers start with 20% in mind…I know as I waited tables for WAY TOO LONG. Anything above 20% IS a compliment. So, I ask you to think about what an extra $10-20 really costs you when rewarding someone for delivering an amazing experience. Since they measure the percentages closely to gauge your level of satisfaction with their performance, even a 5-spot would be rewarding. Tip Away!
