While that sounds good on the surface, servers/waiters/waitresses are usually paid less than minimum wage. They are paid less than minimum wage because they can receive tips. If we abandoned tipping, we would have to pay the servers, busmen, etc a higher wage to make up for the lost tips. Menu prices would likely increase accordingly. Not saying that would be a bad thing, but I am saying it is not quite as simple as "I will do my job extremely well because that is what is expected of me."
