    O.K. good posts . My thoughts on a few things mentioned . I agree with the lack of logic in getting rid of tips and raising meal prices . Why pay 15% more for all meals . I agree with leaving small tip on the table for poor service . (like maybe a quarter ) When you leave no tip they think you forgot or added it on the credit card .
    Good hair stylists should be tipped . There are pros and there are scissor wielders . The pros deserve more but don't go to a scissor wielder a second time after not tipping .
    Overweight employees do project a bad image at Subway . I believe wings must be a good health food . Look at the Hooters employees . Subway could learn thing or two from Hooters about hiring policies . (uniforms too )

    So are you saying that if you feel there was good servivice at a

    restaurant you should pay 20% instead of 15%? Is it tipping or

    paying an extra cost on top of the meal you already paid good money for?

    Tipping is not figured into the cost they set for a meal. And if the waiter or waitress provides exemplary service why shouldn't that person be rewarded extra for it? Again federal law exempts these employers from having to pay the waitstaff minimum wage and these people have to report their tips on their taxes even when they don't get tipped. If you have an issue with what they are paid, then take it up with the federal government, they are the ones that made this law. Don't take it out on the person who is waiting on you.

    The price of the meal should include the price of service.
    Uncle sam made the waiter wage law only as a way to tax tips.
    They know if a waiter is making 8 dollars an hour and reported
    only 10k a year..well, they were making alot more then 10k a year
    with tips included(which was because of good service).Now when they report 10k a year there is no unreported tip money. Which is a shame cuz some waiters deserve a tip(on top of what they normally make) nowadays to leave a tip,you gotta pay on top of the 15% extra you have already paid on top of the price of the meal. The gov saw
    money that wasn't being taxed so they lowered the waiters wage and
    basically it has eliminated any extra tips and has become only a compensation
    of their lost wages. Who is really making out on this is the restaurants. Next time I go
    into a restaurant im knockin 15% off the menu price and tellin the owner that is what im payin or im not coming back.
