Why you shouldn’t tip restaurant servers on your credit card – USATODAY.com. I didn’t know there were so many ways to cheat the waiters/waitresses out of their tips! We almost always tip on our debit card total.

Come on now! They work for substandard wages and NEED those tips to live! But whoever said life was fair? Still, I can’t believe this is happening. One of the hardest jobs I ever had was as a waitress. You get verbal abuse and many times lousy tips. Take care of and appreciate your waiters! Of course, it helps if they actually try to be pleasant and serve you well! It’s a two-way street.
