Interesting---but discussion perhaps for another Thread.

Suffice it to say that Servers and Cooks are some of the most unappreciated workers in our economy IMHO. I have little respect for someone who doesn't tip their Server according to the service they receive.
And many of us have worked as servers and remember all the of the other duties we had in addition to serving which may have included a financial responsibility for broken or missing items from a service.

Even a good day with tips wouldn't be much if someone decided to lift a beer stein or two and and the servers were held responsible. Hopefully, that policy has been changed.
