Totally shi***. I think one thing that I haven't seen mentioned yet, but in most places like one I served at a few years ago the waiters have to tip out other team members based on a percentage of your sales. If this exact same scenario happened at a place I used to work at the server would have just paid 6 dollars to wait on that "single mother" because that is what cut of the tip the host, bartender, and kitchen would have received on that $140 bill alone. Even though that tip says zero, at the place I used to work at the server would have actually made negative 6 dollars on that table because that's how much the waiter would have had to tip out team members on that tab alone. In general it usually evens out by the end of the night because you have a few really good tips and a few really bad ones with everything else falling in the middle, but it doesn't always work out that way. If you don't leave a tip, the server technically paid to wait on you at my old job.
