In order to make up for an industry that lobbied to pay its workers $2-odd an hour as an initial response to our voluntary tipping to say thank you, because with that plus full min wage then waitstaff were in danger of earning enough to actually live humanely on. Now it's enshrined in law as a way to let restaurants jack their staff and will just not change, so lousy as it is please suck it up without taking it out on the innocent waiter.
End of populist rant. I tip well for good service, cut slack for inexperienced-so-still-not-stellar but enthusiastic service, won't tip for someone simply reads my order off to someone else from behind a counter but do tip the person who fills it, and have no time or money for some wench of a waiter who takes her problems with her crappy boss out on customers.
