A little understanding on how things work over there might help.
Waiterpersons pay tax on the tips they get. The government can never
know just how much the waiterperson gets through tips. So the total
take in the til is divided by the waiter staff and they pay tax
accordingly. So if you fail tip tip on you $30.00 meal the waiter person
will still be abliged to pay tax on a tip they never got. I'd get pissed to
because you might as well have taken the money out of there pockets.
It always annoys me when you hear waiter staff here whinge about not
getting tip. They can start whinging when they start getting taxed on it.
