I agree with you all the way. Same experience for the most part. I worked a a 
real swanky resturant serving the likes of Jordan/Pippen/Messier/Barkley not 
to mention Diane Keaton(sp?) quincy jones the list goes on. Anyhow this 
frustrated me alot as when these guests showed up there was not alwayse a 
table as we were jammed all the time. The Bar (oyster bar actually) was used 
as a holding spot untill tables came open. We served wine/apetizers/oysters 
and sometimes even dinner before they finally got to thier tables and the bill 
was transered!!!! Can you imagine the bill for some of these people? and we 
diddnt get a kick back. I raised the issue to management and they jumped all 
over the servers. We got tipped 10% right away as soon as the bill got moved. 
No questions no excuses accepted. The management implemented a fair 
arangement. Tips were generally over 10% anyhow. It was a great solution.

I hope it works out for you. It must be demoralizing and isnt very team 
focused. What incentive do you have to take great care of your guests when you 
know that it is all for the greedy servers. Good Luck
