Today I had dinner out and didn't leave a tip. This is exactly the second time in my entire life I've done this. I'm normally a very good tipper.
Service was terrible. I had to go find other wait staff three times and ask them to send my waitress over. My drinks were empty every time she came over, I had to ask other waitresses for drinks and condiments, and at the end I literally waited 20 minutes to get my check with empty drinks and dirty plates on the table. The place was not very busy. She was pleasant when she came over, but I spent twice as long there as I wanted to due to slow service.
How often do you guys stiff a server? Usually with bad service I'll still leave a 10% or so tip, but this was obscene. Usually I'll leave 25+% tip. I felt like a cheapskate when I left, but if I spent the entire meal pissed off waiting for my server, why should I leave anything extra?
