If you think you could survive on that annual pay, then don't tip at all. Otherwise, cough up some tip money.

Personally, I have never understood the concept of tips being used to supplement a worker's pay. No other industry suggests I pay extra for the businesses work force. Restaurants just have awful business plans if they have to rely upon the largesse of their patrons (which they do).

Well said.
