It is fair, because I *SEE* most servers not writing ****************EVERY SINGLE THING DOWN, then MOST FORGET SOMETHING whether it's a refill or a bag or box or I call auctioning off drinks like "Who had the coke, who had the sprite" when they TOOK the order and even wrote it down even but are too lazy to VERIFY who had what, or the ones that refuse to write your order down, the ones that don't have their pad and pen ready to write down your drink order and/or appetizer order when they greet you, the ones that don't go to the computer after taking each order when they are double or triple sat as you should, the ones that don't compare the menu prices to the check prices, etc. Get what I am saying? Most are lazy.
Heck, here's a waitress that agrees with me:

“I will agree that 90% of our servers ARE lazy. They drive me crazy; as lazy as they are with their tables (who are providing their tips), imagine how lazy they are when it's time to do sidework and help clean the restaurant. They're always on their cell phones, outside smoking cigarettes, flirting with the cooks, when they should be paying attention to their guests. And I bet they get your orders wrong all the time because you're right-they are lazy. They expect a 20% tip always. They wonder why they get "stiffed" on a tip sometimes. It's because they didn't deserve a tip! That's why I said that I don't want other servers taking my food out. I don't trust them at all. They don't read the kitchen slips, they bring a steak out without a steak knife, they forget sides, and they auction off food. It ends up costing me more time cause not only do I have to apologize for their order delivery not being correct, but I still have to go back to the kitchen and get whatever they forgot. And god forbid that the guest asks THEM for something because not only will they not get it, but they won't even have the courtesy to tell me what the table wanted.”
Here's an example of how you take a drink order:

Top Left to right 1. Sprite 2. Coke
Bottom left to right: 3. Iced tea extra lemon 4. Water with lemon
See how hard is that to get right, huh? We had a waitress that did that for just the 2 of us even that's how lazy she was. We also had a waitress do it to us in a party of 4. It's RIDICULOUS how LAZY that looks and DINGY of the server. They took the order, they should KNOW by going back to their written orders.
So yeah I beg to differ when I am seeing lazy servers all the time. Most of them don't *TRY* their best, they just don't. Look at the waitress I said that said "I'm not your server." That just PROVES she didn't work hard or the waiter that said "Your server will get that for you." Most of them I encounter are like that, LAZY, UNCARING a$$holes.

I think some customers are just plain entitled too.

Because we are *****PAYING A TIP******** means we are entitled, understand? Don't you think that people that refuse to tip because they are cheap shouldn't be "entitled" to service, period?
