I like Rain's idea of leaving less than the required amount and a note as to why. That way, they can fix the issue and learn from it, but they are not being totally screwed out of an hourly wage (which I believe in VA is something like $2 and then tips). That really should be fixed. <br /><br /><br />Megan xxxMShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02622415628314992252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2546626959391412613.post-17860925413907840852015-09-03T07:04:45.962-07:002015-09-03T07:04:45.962-07:00It is a dilemma.

Terrible service though and on the verge of rude (which yours sounded like) is harder. I routinely tip 20% and sometimes even a bit more which gives me latitude for the varying degrees of service I get. If I opted to not tip at all, I'd write a note on the bill or ask for something to write a review on to explain why. That gives the waiter and management a chance to evaluate what's going on and not think the customer was just cheap.
