Restaurant Service

Have you ever had really poor service when you go out to eat at a restaurant? If you pay by credit card, I have what may be an innovative solution to your problems. When you get your receipt with the total and the slot for the tip, enter a negative amount. For example, let's say the bill was $30.00. Write in your tip of ($5.00) or -$5.00, and then write in the total as $25.00. Why should you be the only one suffering if they gave you the wrong food and were disagreeable about it? If the service is really horrible, write in the tip as ($35.00). Then they owe you $5.00. Hold out your hand for the money as the waiter/waitress comes by.

Please note that this would never really work. But at least you can have some satisfaction in thinking about it, right?
