Now, I know this is something that waiters might not have the power to change, but how about not putting whole tables on the same tab to begin with? How is this practice even OK? It should be obvious that each person pays for him or herself. When you go shopping with some friends it&#x27;s not like you have to split a tab just because you are hanging out together. I pay for what I consume, putting us all on the same tab is just being lazy.
