Smile Interesting study was done on tipping

I read a study that was done on tipping. It found that when a server was tipped irradicaly, first a big tip, and then next time a small tip, the server ended up providing better, more attentive service to the patron. In other words, forced the server to pay attention to service. I thought of my own waitressing days, and found this to be true. If I knew the patron was a good tipper, I provided the same usual service, knowing to expect a good tip. (ok! I was 20 yrs old!) But if there is an unknown factor there, then the service might be stepped up a bit, just part of human nature for reward system, and the practical amount of time allowed for each table.
My husband is very good tipper, good thing, as I am more critical of service!
