Subject: Do you check credit card slips?
From: xoxosilvr

After I hand a credit card slip to a patron to sign, they sign it, and I pick 
it up, I usually just throw it in the tip jar without looking at the slip. I 
do this because I feel that customers might think I'm looking at the slip to 
see how much he tipped, and that looks unprofessional. However, the bar 
manager that bartends with us does look a the slip "to make sure that they 
signed the correct slip (the merchant copy)", which makes sense, but I really 
don't want people to think I'm looking at the slip to see how much the guy 
tipped. Another bad side is, well, if I don't look at how much they tip then I 
can't treat them accordingly (treating a patron well if they happened to tip 
me $50 on a $20 bill, y'know ;)..not that I would treat a bad tipper 
unprofessionally). Just curious as to what you guys did with the slips.
