I always tip 20% or more. Waiters/Waitresses are paid lower than minimum wage, their salary isn't as high because most of it is supposed to come from tips.
Added to that, the government here's been a really penny pincher even demanding retroactive tax increases on employees that receive tipping.
It's funny, when I was a student with no money, the government was constantly on my ass redemanding refunds on student grants, sometimes 2 years later, they're all over people in the service industry, but now that I'm making alot of money, I never get asked retroactive anything.
