Tips at the resturant

Giving tips at a restaurant is a lot harder than you think. It is said that you should tip at least 20% to whoever your waiter or waitress was. A lot of people now a days don’t tip because they don’t want to or the service is not good enough for them. Not every waiter or waitress is perfect and a lot of them forget to come back and ask how the food is or keep up with anything the family or couple might need. When I went to the restaurant with my family we were eating and the waitress wasn’t the best waitress. She was very nice which was a plus but, she wasn’t really good with giving us everything we wanted and didn’t really come back and ask for refills we had to ask her to get us another drink. When it came to the end and we had to pay for the dinner we had to figure out how much of a tip we were going to give her because her service wasn’t that good. We decided that we were only going to give her 15% of a tip to her because my dad didn’t really think that she deserved a 20% tip. My dad is really good at math and I think that’s where I get it from but when it came to figuring out how much of money is 15% of the amount for dinner he was having trouble. I’m not very good at finding percent’s of the amount but sooner or later I’ll be able to get it. I think when it comes to setting up a proportion it is always easier to find out what the tip may be. I told my dad to set up a proportion in his head and he thought that that was harder because it required more work and thinking. I always do what I feel is comfortable to me because I know that if I try something else I won’t get the answer correct. When we learn to do proportions or have to teach them to little kids or any kid it is always good to go through exactly what you need to do to get the answer. For all of these young kids it is harder for them to figure out how much of a tip they need to give because all of us are so used to technology that we will just pull out our phones to find out what we have to give. It is not likely to watch a couple go out and when it comes time to pay then know in their heads exactly how much of a tip they are going to give. When it comes to that we just pull out our phones and go to our calculators to find the answer. Everybody has their own way of finding out how much of a tip they should give. When it comes to restaurants that aren’t that good like pizza hut we only give like a 5 dollar tip depending on how good the service is and how much the order was.
