“The least you can do is pay us for the extra work.”

NO, cleaning up is just that, clean up work AFTER we have left. It’s NOT *SERVICE* to the customer! Service is when we are actually DINING there. I REFUSE to tip for work that I don’t even receive. SO WHAT if you have to clean up a lot mess after I have left. That’s partly why you get the $2.13/hr for. YOUR EMPLOYER PAYS FOR YOU TO CLEAN THE MESS AFTER I LEAVE! I also could care less if they pick up my dishes during my meal unless it is a really small table that I need the room, otherwise, if it’s a big table, WHO the fuck CARES if my plates and glasses stay at my table after I have paid? I want my requests as SOON as POSSIBLE! I DON’T CARE if you take my plates and honestly would MUCH RATHER you get my requests FASTER instead. I could literally care less about the dishes, because you aren’t SERVING me when you pick up those plates, because you are doing something that COULD LITERALLY BE DONE AFTER I HAVE LEFT. Honestly, bussing the table and picking up dishes after I’m GONE IS NOT AT ALL PART OF MY SERVICE, because I’m NOT there anymore. It’s actually just service to the RESTAURANT ONLY! SO WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER SOMETHING THAT I DON’T GET IN *MY* SERVICE IN PART OF YOUR TIP? TIPS ARE FOR THE *SERVICE* I RECEIVE, NOT AFTER I LEAVE, BECAUSE THAT IS NOT PART OF MY SERVICE IF I AM NOT THERE ANYMORE? WHY TIP ANY MORE FOR SERVICE I AM NOT RECEIVING? I don’t care what you do AFTER I’ve left, I mean REALLY, WHO GIVES A FUCK! Like anyone actually CARES if you have a big mess to clean up. Get real you know.

“It's very distracting not to mention dangerous if they get ran over by a server with hot food in their hands.”

I COMPLETELY AGREE! Parents need to hold their kid down if they want to run around like a chicken with their head cut off. If the kids are causing a danger to others, then YES, they should be controlled. The parents need to teach their kids to BEHAVE!

“2. "THE CAMPERS":
If you feel the necessity to stay for longer than 15 minutes after you pay, its an extra $3 every 30 minutes. We make our money from the tables. If you are in one and we can't seat it, we don't make money.”

That’s pretty SELFISH of you! There’s NO REASON to pay an extra $3 or a PENNY MORE for NO MORE SERVICE, NONE! NO MORE SERVICE=NO MORE TIP! TIPS stands for TO INSURE PROPER SERVICE. Do you understand what the word "SERVICE” means? TIPS ARE FOR SERVICE, BUT IF THERE ISN'T MORE SERVICE, WHY SHOULD I TIP FOR NO MORE SERVICE? If I am there just sipping my drink, I've paid, and you aren't coming to the table anymore, WHY the hell should I TIP you MORE for *NO MORE WORK?* IS THAT REALLY FAIR FOR A CUSTOMER TO TIP FOR NO WORK JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE SITTING LONGER? Tips aren’t for just sitting at a table and they NEVER have been just for that. Customers have EVERY RIGHT as long as the manager says it's ok for them to stay as LONG as they please. NO CUSTOMER IS *RENTING* the space, so we DON'T OWE the server ANYTHING for staying longer! NO SERVICE DOES EQUAL NO TIP! Why would people pay for no more service? Doesn’t that sound a bit stupid and selfish to you?

All you care about is "TURNING THE TABLE" to make more money for YOURSELF, NOT about if customers are enjoying themselves dining out. Sure, I feel it's rude ONLY to the other customers that would like to get seated sooner to end up sitting for hours when it would be busy, but it’s NOT inconsiderate to the server. The customers have EVERY RIGHT to do dine as LONG as they wish unless the manager tells them they have to leave. I DO NOT AGREE AT ALL that customers OWE you more money. IT IS NOT INCONSIDERATE to the server, because why in the world should ANYONE consider the server not making tips from other customers? Like customers really think about that, I mean for real. That’s RUDE of the server to act like customers have to tip more for NO MORE SERVICE. It's SELFISH and it's RIDICULOUS for NO MORE WORK. Just because I'm there longer, doesn't mean I am *RENTING* my space to have to pay you more. THAT'S SELFISH OF YOU TO SAY SUCH A THING!
