Should You Tip a Rude Waitress?

Even if they're rude, you still tip the bare minimum because rudeness isn't something that should result in not being able to eat or pay your rent. If it bothers you, report it to a manager. If you think what they did was bad enough they don't deserve to eat, don't tip.

Should you tip a bad waitress?

If you receive poor service at a restaurant definitely address it with the employee and with the manager, if appropriate. Please don't let it result in a less than 18 percent tip.” I always leave a tip when I dine in a restaurant.

How do you leave a tip for a bad waitress?

The general rule of thumb (for me) is to round the bill up to the nearest $10, and leave 20%. This is easy to calculate, and it rewards servers for good service. I know many people claim 15% is adequate, but keep in mind that your server is making just over $2 an hour without tips to run him- or herself ragged.
