If you're not going to make the kind of change I need to tip you the appropriate amount (around 15% for good service, more for great service) - then your tip is going to be lacking.It happened again tonight. Food bill for $29.75, two $20 bills given in tender, $10 bill and a quarter given back in change. Now the proper tip would have been $4. But because the server was too lazy to give me something smaller than a ten, I retaliated. I'm sorry dude, but you're not getting a $10 tip. You're getting whatever I've got for loose change in my pocket, and look - it adds up to just a little over $2. Sucks to be you buddy.
Am I the only one who thinks this way?

I agree, it's kind of lazy, selfish and presumptuous, I think I've covered all the bases.
I understand the problem, but I will tend to get frustrated when the server brings me a large stack of ones. While I appreciate that it is easier to make an appropriate tip, I certainly don't like a wallet that is unnecessarily large. In conclusion, paying by credit card is definately the way to go.
I hear you. Mind you, in Canada your wallet wouldn't be fat, your pocket would - what with the one and two dollar coins in circulation. The only reason I don't use credit to pay for meals out is because it's too easy and I may be tempted to eat out more. I know - dumb reason and it probably has no basis in reality, but there ya go.
