It's not just cultural over here. Wait staff, in most states in America, can be payed WAY below minimum wage.
In Tennessee, where I live, wait staff minimum wage is $2.13 per hour. So, they are pretty much working for tips. There is never any excuse for service that bad, but I always tip because you never know what is going on in that person's life that may have just made them shitty at their job that day. Also, they probably have kids or dependents, (just playing the odds), so I don't want to be a reason why a kid doesn't eat or something.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
