I also don't think servers should expect everyone to have it in their budget to leave really good tips.
They don't expect everyone has it in their budget to leave really good tips. They know that in a typical 6 hour shift they'll get at least a couple of tables that don't tip anywhere near 10%, no matter how friendly or good they are. In your reference, $10 on a $50 meal is a 20% tip (a good tip). The change in 5% from 15% to 20% cost you $2.50. If you are claiming budgetary concerns for potentially not leaving 4.1% of your total amount (2.5 / 60), then you should probably look into going someplace cheaper, or not ordering drinks. Wait staff payment shouldn't depend on what you make, but services rendered.

Remember: when you tip them, that is their income, not just something extra for them to tuck into their pocket.

Ma'am me ...... I'll put a hex on you and you'll get a lousy tip.... lol
You would hate me, then. Ma'am is a comma to me, and I can't break the habit, no matter how many times I get yelled at.
