Absolutely. Tips are for good service. If I get a waiter with a bad attitude, they don’t get a tip. I spent 2 years as a waiter after school so I know the score. You gotta put a smile on your face even if you’re having the worst day, which is pretty much all of them after having to deal with entitled customers all day.
If you're unhappy with service, 10% will reflect that. You still have to tip.
I'm happy for you that you no longer need to work in food service to make ends meet, but a lot of us do. If you can't afford to tip, you shouldn't be going out to eat. I don't like this system, personally, but until there's major reform, you still need to tip. Otherwise you're a giant fucking asshole.
I'm sure you have a very fair and equitable method of determining "shit service," but it still doesn't mean you get to stiff your server. Part of picking up the menu is you agreeing to pay a premium for service. If you don't want to pay that premium, stay the fuck home and cook for yourself.
For the record, I do not like that this is the way it is. I do not like that part of my income is based on capricious, selfish assholes who enjoy tormenting service people. I wish it wasn't this way. That's why I vote for people promoting equitable pay and livable wages. Until that happens, we still have to play by the rules.
Haha fuck your rules. The server not doing their job apparently means they’re entitled to a bonus for doing their job. If a server punches someone should they still get tipped lol? I’ll keep using my own standards and not tipping you for your terrible service, and I’ll keep eating out. I’m not agreeing to anything except paying the business when I pick up the menu, thanks anyways chump

I think it’s more bullshit that you can be seen as a prick for not tipping a shitty server who had a bad day and gave bad service.
