I took the job because I was broke, needed a job asap, a friend worked at a restaurant and put in a good word.
The late night hours allowed me to work a ton and still go to university full time.

Sounds like a truly awful system then. If the tips are a major part of the server's wages, why must they end up punished for a cooker breaking or a chef burning a steak? Surely the wages should be commensurate to a standard level of service, with tips being proportional to the level of service provided above the bare minimum?

same here . 15% if poor 20% if good. Only once did I refuse to tip and that was because the girl made a remark about us being being English and not very good tippers.
She was a terrible waitress and obnoxious with it. At the end of the meal I just paid the bill and asked her to ask her colleague how much we tipped the night before ( a stupid amount as we were drunk ) . Told her not to make judgements she was apologetic but I wouldn't budge . We ate and drank in that place (millers ale house ) most days and she was the only bad server. She was very polite on our next visit . I felt guilty not given her a tip but you should be entitled to a bit of respect if you are eating somewhere.
The serving staff work very hard in the states and most have a smile on there face doing so.

Mondays :
Actual wages might change based on experience, raises for time in service, things like that, but for servers 98.639% of the wages are tips. It can be terrible if you work in a dive as it's generally accepted to pay % of what you spend on food/drink. Great it you work at high end places.
Certainly better servers tend to make more money. A big part of that is picking up quickly what the customer wants from you...chatty Cathy or very little intrusion. It's also about being able to handle a lot of tables and turn them quickly.
I am disappointed there was no equivalent of "chatty Cathy" here to be honest lol
But I agree with you!
