The better alternative would be to pay them fair wages in the first place.

Easier for the management? Certainly. But fairer to the staff? No!
Getting enough work is the management's job. The tipping system just
puts the risk on the employees.

True, but with the risk on the employer, he will pay wages in line with
little or no education.. Where else do you know of that a high school
graduate (or not) with good people skills, and a good memory (or not) can
bring home over 200 bucks in 6 or 7 hours?

Waiting in a good establishment, is the answer. Some nights, 200 bucks will
not be brought home, but some nights a lot more. Makes taking the risk more
worthwhile, don't you think?\

After seeing the kind of service you get in some European restaurants, I
think tipping makes a big difference in the quality of the service.
