Default Re: Hypothetical Management Decision re: non-tipping patron of restaur

It seems like a lot of people view 15% as the floor, or a bad tip. 15% was completely standard 10 years ago, and it seems like it creeps up every year. Statements like, "People who come in parties of 3-6 take up a table for an entire service, then ring up a 300-500 dollar tab and tip 15% are scumbags" just seem way out of whack to me. I tip 15%, and if the service sucks, 10% or less. I've left a dollar or less on multiple occasions.
