I have had more than one job where my pay was based entirely upon performance. I will agree that food service is odd that it is based that way; but it is.

When working as a server, there were bad days where I didn't make much in tips. However there were also a disproportionate number of days where I did extremely well. So this person complaining about being stiffed on a $100 tab should have days where they more than make up for it. If the number of times they get stiffed is so frequent that they need to rant about it on social media, maybe they aren't that good of a server.

And while the food taking that long to come out of the kitchen isn't the server's fault, a good server would have found a way to smooth things over with the customer.
