Yeah, a little. But I've dealt with assholes on the other end, and I actually did really appreciate it when I (or my then girlfriend now wife) earned a decent tip. And in the couple years or so, we've started to have way more income than we expected to have- and are also more busy than we expected to be- and we enjoy being able to go out for meals. I've been regular enough and tipped well enough that we get exceptional service at a couple local places. Better tables, the odd comped drink or appetizer/dessert, getting in on a busy night without reservations, etc.
Also keep in mind that I have no qualms with tipping poorly when appropriate.
