IMO this is because waiters and waitresses have come to EXPECT 15-20%, its like they feel they just deserve it as opposed to earning it. We had horrible service just the other night and I left the waiter a $1 tip on a $60 tab. My wife asked why I left anything and the reason I did was because I didnt want the guy to think I had just forgotten, I wanted him to KNOW that I thought he SUCKED!
I refuse to tip like I used to, I am taking a stand. Oh and just a FYI, I worked as a bartender and waiter for the better part of 8 years, so ya I know how its SUPPOSED to work.

LOL. Great point on leaving a $1 as opposed to nothing at all. Never looked at it that way.
