Seriously, if you can’t afford to tip your servers at a sit-down restaurant (in places that pay below minimum wage for servers), then you can’t afford to eat there. It’s not some life hack, you’re just being a piece of shit and the only thing you are accomplishing is fucking over your fellow worker. If you don’t want to tip, don’t eat at places with table service.
