Saying it's not your fault if servers have to tip out is a cop out. No it's not universal, but the places that do have high tip out, that server may very well end up PAYING for serving YOU.
When you tip out on sales, you don't get screwed over by the tip on a lower check if it's an adequate tip for the total bill. You just don't have as high of sales that day and don't make as much, but you're not screwed over.
As I've stated before...when you get great service tip more! Why not give 6 on that $30...or 5 on that $10 anyway. The guidelines are a minimum...it doesn't say you can't tip more. What if you bill is $50...you still going to give $5? That is not a good tip at all no matter how you look at it.
