We were TOLD by management to report at least 8% tip.
So let me get this straight. If I am not satisfied with the level of service and leave you a smaller tip then I am "cheap". So what do you think that makes you in my eyes for not reporting your full income like I have to?

Adequate service is fine for the kid behind the counter at McDonalds. I expect more than that when I go out to eat (assuming it is somewhere nice and not just a greasy spoon). If that is all you offer me then there is no way in hell I'm leaving you 15%. As I've said before, make me happy (it's not really that hard) and I am more than happy to tip well. Make sure my drink is topped up before I get my meal, get me my food in a timely fashion (or at least inform me if there has been a holdup), don't be a dick and odds are that you will get 15-20% from me. If you do more you get more, it's as simple as that.

And then you bitch about the "cheap" Canadians who actually expect *GASP!* good service!
