Tipping

[Bouncer]

I agree - I was a bartender/server for years as well. However - I don't think you "deserve" a good tip just because you're someones server. I can't stand that philosophy. People go out to eat to be "waited" on and shitty service doesn't deserve a great tip.

agreed. shitty service = shitty tip. everyone works hard, if you don't do your job, you don't get paid.

I thought before that there should be an automatic 10% added to the bill. Then if you feel they deserve more than you can add more. If you feel they don't deserve the 10% then you should talk to the manager to have it removed. That would also notify the manager of the problems so that the service can continue to improve.

that is a good idea.

As far as the tattoo - on that expensive of a piece, you do not need to give 15-20%. Does this guy own the shop?

No he doesn't own the shop. I was thinking like $75. Does that seem decent??

I have 2 tattoos, the one going down my arm cost about 600 bucks, but I tipped him 100 bucks. In my opinion, these are permanent things, and if you plan on going back to him, it can't hurt to tip him well... he will remember it next time.
