    If service is great, I usually double the tax, which would make my tip around 18% here in AZ, it goes down drastically from "great"...

    I did this for while also. I usually have a set amount and depending on the service. It goes up, down or just stays. Unless your like the lady yesterday. We was right next to door of the main hallway where it goes to the kichten. Our waitress walked pass us several times and served three other people and they got there food before we did even though they was seated way before us. Right when i was going to say something the hostess pulled the waitress to the side (while we was watching the whole time) and told her she better get our food right out. Then knowing that we was pretty upset. The hostess served us herself but it was to late. If i could i wouldve taken her tips.

    I usually tip between 15 - 25% depending on the service. Whenever an establishment has the tip incorporated into the bill then that's all they get. I figure they already set the desired tip themselves. Normally I tip better than what the establishment predetermined. I think that practice is becoming more common here in Florida because we have a lot of foreign tourists that don't understand our custom of a gratuity. ;)

    Your supposed to keep track of your tips and report them come tax time correct? IIRC thats how things are SUPPOSED to work...

    which means that the tips plus your hourly wage are supposed to be greater than or equal to minimum wage.
