Everyone should have to work a month as a server in a restaurant before being allowed to eat in one.
That is why I always tip well unless the server was just absolutely horrible then I just tip minimum. I can't remember the last time that has happened though, if you are friendly to your server at first contact just as in the rest of life, most of the times people respond in kind. I always keep in the back of my mind that servers and other customer service positions have to face the horrible great unwashed all day and everyday so I go out of my way to be nice to them and tip them well if they respond in kind.
