Everyone I told this was utterly appalled,
which makes me wonder if it's maybe just a difference in culture?
I find it incredibly rude not to tip, it's just a social rule. Everyone I know does it, and the larger the bill, the more you should tip.
Anyway, I definitely don't use it as an incentive to be nice to people, I'm very friendly towards customers and do my best to provide them with a pleasant evening because it's my job, and I enjoy it. If they're nice to me as well I'll go out of my way to give them a few extra's.
