[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Getting OT, but asking for the money back reminds me of a personal peeve: Handing a waitperson money and they say "Do you need change?"

If I didn't, I would tell you. And as soon as you ask that, I'd deducting a bit from your tip. [/quote]

You do realize that at most restaurants there's a script that waiters/waitresses must follow, correct?  Certain things they must say or do with each customer.  They don't know you're not a dreaded secret diner that corporate sends out from time-to-time to spy on them.  Even if you work at a locally owned restaurant, the owner can still hire secret diners to come in and report back, so it's not just chain places.  For you to take from their tip because that bugs you is pretty shitty.

You do realize that they're being paid around $2.10/hr, right?  And most don't even get a physical paycheck with more than $1 or $2 bucks on it after the taxes are taken out?  And after you leave your 20% tip minus the money you take away for them asking a required question, they have to split that remaining tip with others... busboys, bartender/service bartender, food runners.
