Good For That Waitress!
Sounds like you put down $2 on a $30 bill (if the $6 tip would’ve been a 20% tip) . Any waitstaff would be pissed! AND there are signs up about the credit card fee. AND I split the bill all the time and assume that it’s a pain in the ass for the waitstaff (especially with a group of people), so I tip accordingly.

I think her getting paid a fair wage for waiting on your table is worth more than your embarrassment in front of your friends for only tipping her $2.

Had a horrible experience at Junior’s. After a great deal of drama trying to split the bill between two credit cards, being told rudely that there was a 50 cent charge per card, the e cards were then charged wrong – with little apology.

When we were done getting payment settled and waked out of the restaurant, the waitress charged after us screaming that we hadn’t tipped enough!

It was my fault, I hadn’t meant to snub her, but with all the receipts flying around I had done my math wrong and only tipped $2 when I should have tipped $6.

But is that a big enough error to come out of the restaurant screaming at me in front of everyone I had been eating with and everyone who was waiting for a seat?

I was so shocked I upped the tip and didn’t say anything else – but I was very embarrassed and the more I think about it, the more appalled I am by her behavior.

The service was hardly good enough to raise that kind of fit over $4 and if she did want to check with me and see if we had been unhappy with the service she should have quietly pulled me aside, not made a huge scene.

I won’t be going back to this restaurant.

I could live off of their potatoes and I concur that theirs is the best tofu scramble in town.

That’s a shame about Bijou, Charley. At there is a scramble option downtown.
