How do you know how much to tip your waitress/waitress? This comes into play a lot if you eat out as much as the big dog does. I start my tip at 20%, and let it fluctuate up or down from there. You need to use several categories in order to give a proper tip.Appearance - If they are dressed to impress and look ready to seize the day, I will take notice when the bill comes. But if my server has their shirt untucked looking like they just crawled out from under a rock it could dock them some serious points.
Refill ability - I drink pop the way god intended us to drink it, which is fast and often. If you get that junior varsity waitress who refills your drink every 45 minutes, it can and will ruin your day. Occasionally you get those All-star servers who bring you 2 pops at once, thats the kind of stunt that can get you promoted to manager by the weekend.
Personality - If my server has the people skills of my right foot its gonna cost em. On the other hand if my waiter or waitress happens to be funny or really likes my jokes, then they just earned themselves an extra dollar, or what I like to call a free Big Gulp.
Check-Up - How many times they ask how my meal is? - Once is ok, Twice just let me eat my food, and three times is when I get the restraining order.
These useful tips should help guide you on your way to a stress free tip when it comes time for the bill.

So what then, you're normally like a 5% tipper, but it could go up as high as 12%?
Awe shit...the Taco Jesus would earn himself some bonus bucks in Taco Heaven.
what if it's an arab?
Black people usually start at 5%, then slowly work their way down to about 2% by the time they leave.
I remember a Sunday dinner I served to a table of 10. $500 tab. $15 tip. I had to pay Outback.
