That's an eye opener, I wasn't aware of that. That sucks.
This may seem weird but, I especially like tipping the new people. I think it helps set the pace for them to try hard. Even if they make some mistakes, I am inclined to tip them so that way they learn that effort makes a huge difference as it is already stressful enough I am sure.
