I understand that parties of 6 or more take time away from other tables, but the increase in the bill will reflect a larger tip as well.

I think servers sometimes slack off because they think their tip is "guaranteed". I have adjusted these automatic tips up and down depending on service received.

The WORST is when you are walking out of the restaurant after paying, and leaving a nice tip, then wondering if the gratuity was already included....DOH!
