Think of it this way...they are basically your 'servant' for a half-hour or more. How would you feel after an hour of serving someone and getting payed $5 total for it. A 15%-20% tip really isn't that much. I know a lot of people that run restaurants. Always be nice to people the bring or cook your food...ALWAYS!
Not true. There are some states where waiters/waitresses are paid minimum including tips. However, there are some states that do pay below minimum.

..not in NY and not in a lot of states. I few people I know earn about $2.50 or less, plus tips. The problem is, it's not always consistent and you don't get paid much on slow days.

Never thought about tipping a service advisor. I have a good one that has been there for many years and saved me money. When I get my new car in, I will start bringing donuts.
