Why do people feel it is okay to not tip the waitress to save a buck when the waitress only makes 4.26 an hour (less than minimimum wage)? People should tip their waitress 15 to 20 percent. Please spread the word.

    The question should be "Why do restaurant's owners feel it's ok to make patrons pay directly to their waitresses their salary?". Tip should only be for good service and certainly not 20%. If people who can can't afford a tip of 20% stayed home like some people suggest it restaurants would lose a lot of patrons... If you think your salary is too low or if you feel bad for waitresses you would do better by starting a petition for better salaries or fight for your right to a decent salary.
    Would you accept to go to Walmart, pay for your groceries, then pay the cashier his/her salary because Walmart would have decided to make more money and lower employees' wages? I wouldn't.
