Considering that a filet is at least twice the price of a cheese sandwich, the tip difference is already factored in. However, if you really think the same effort is used for these two items suggest you become a server for a week. A cheese sandwich requires picking it up and bringing it to the table. A filet requires bread, salad, possible sides on separate plates, and sour cream, etc. added to baked potato.

Glad you aren’t my daughter’s customer (she gave up on Villagers and now works in Ocala).
